30 of 30 · most liked firstI've always likes these types of games. The one thing I don't like about it is: Whether you're paving, or pouring gravel or or cement, and you're nearing the completion of the job, you don't get to finish the job. The game finishes it. This is a simulator-life type of game. YOU should be able to complete the sections NOT the game.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This might have been a good game in 2022, but outside of the bargain bin I can't really recommend this. If you want to dive big trucks, Euro Truck Sim or American Truck Sim are right there and are still getting regular updates. If you want to operate cranes, Snowrunner and it's franchise handle that far better and are of the same vintage. If you have a controller and are getting this game for dirt cheap? OK sure, maybe. The crane / boom arm controls aren't that intuative on K+M and the…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →After 10 hours you have every piece of equipment you need and the game starts feeling incredibly repetetive. "Job scope" is just how much of your time you want to waste digging a foundation and concreting.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I spent 30 minutes trying to slog through the tutorial but the controls are so genuinely awful it just doesn't feel like its worth my time to continue to play it.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →terrible controls, junky physics that don't make sense, horrible camera movement that makes you feel like your in Roblox, to many cutscenes and a broken ass tutorial that brakes every time I get to the 3rd mission. Not even worth the discount or sale its on.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I love this game a lot so far and its really fun but please update the Ai traffic, I could be going 'bout 70 mph in a semi and they will just pull out infront of me.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Whoever thought that an automatic camera without an option to switch to manual, in a building simulation game of all genres, is a good idea should stop making games.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →As an actual Construction Worker and Operator of such equipment i must say that this is bad the Controlls of the equipment is really bad and way to sensitiv. If you are Looking for a for a Game that immitates Construction this would be way to tedious and if you want a realistic simulator then this is way to bad of a simulator for that.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →So, just to be clear, a big part of my disappointment with this game comes from me misunderstanding what it's about, but I still think what it's actually about is just not fun. I bought this game because when I saw that it was called "Construction Simulator" I thought it'd mostly focus on active Construction. Like Bricklaying, Frame Assembling, Painting, Installation. that sort of stuff. Maybe even designing homes yourself eventually. But in reality, a more accurate name for this game would be…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I've been hacking at this game from its beginning. As usual, there's always a bit of a learning curve, especially since I'm using an Xbox One controller as well as the mouse to accomplish certain tasks. I'm 72 going on 40 and my grand-kids run circles around me when they play ANY type of games, including this one. I really like this one even with the few glitches I came across, i.e. using the controller left and right switches are very sensitive when choosing features by pressing the X button,…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's mostly cranes, cementing, and pushing dirt around. To be fair, it's some of the best dirt manipulation I've ever seen in a video game, but the rest of the game feels empty. There are no consequences to swinging items around too fast on the crane, there is no sandbox option, no hand tools only heavy machinery. The speed of the crane will make you question your life choices. Which kinda sucks because it's all basically cranes and driving. Filling up the dump truck every two feet will also…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's a mostly fun game that was executed poorly. It feels like it was made with minimal effort and/or budget. A lot of the frustrating things should be easy to fix for any competent developer but this game has barely changed since I bought it two years ago. I could dig holes in the ground with an excavator all day. But, any fun I have is almost always interrupted by COMPLETLY AVOIDABLE STUPID CRAP. Here's a couple of examples of said "COMPLETLY AVOIDABLE STUPID CRAP." 1. AI Traffic.…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I have close to 30 hours in Construction Simulator so far, and when I play a simulator, I’m looking for something challenging and unforgiving. I enjoy games that don’t hold your hand and actually make you deal with the consequences of your actions. I know no game is perfect, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be improved, no matter how good or bad it already is. First, what I like about the game. The graphics look great, and I appreciate that it isn’t extremely demanding, so it runs well even on…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The controls are so god awful, very clunky game overall.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I've enjoyed playing this game quite a bit, but it's a little bit hard for me to recommend. This game will hold your hand to a very large degree which makes it feel like you make very few decisions. This is a great game if you really just need something where you can turn your brain off and actively want something boring (like me!). Outside of that, I think most people will grow bored in a few hours.

unlabelledView post →Unless you're really into construction & operating heavy machinery, this game will get repetitive pretty fast.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Where do I begin? I think that the game sucks, to be honest. Years ago I played the Pocket Edition 2014 CS on mobile, and back then I really, really enjoyed it (it was the free demo). Now, when I finally remembered that it was on PC, I wanted to check it out! And to my surprise, it’s absolutely garbage. I mean, it has A LOT of potential if the devs would stop bringing the old phone games to Steam and just focus on this game. The game has tons of content and DLC. The equipment you can buy…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I love this game and would recommend it to anybody and everybody. Graphics are wonderful, there are lots of challenges in learning how to run different types of equipment to get the job done right but it's a lot of fun. My only complaint is running and steering tracked vehicles with the numpad. They have Reverse as number two on a numpad and I think it should be number 5 which would give you the same type of steering as AWSD. I'm eighty seven and still gaming, come on guys climb aboard this…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Game itself is fine, the reason i do not endorse it and have uninstalled it is because it's plagued with the same terrible experience when driving with a gamepad as FS25. I do not undertstand why it is so hard to make it so that it is driveable even when using a controller, instead the wheels turns so fast that it is basically that same as driving with the keyboard. ATS and ETS2 IS driveable with gamepad so i KNOW it is possible. If they get that sorted i will reinstall AND get ALL the DLC…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →You can't freely play with heavy equipment, the career mode isn't great, and it feels (and looks) like most of their budget went into licensing the various equipment.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →this game is really fun with friends, especially when my friends are doing absolutely nothing and im stuck doing all the hard work also theres a lot of glitches with driving and its rare enough to not ruin your experience and make you laugh a LOT 10/10, my friend group never played a game for this long in ONE session
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →While premise if fun, the game doesn't feel fun. It's heavily monotonous(I work in construction, and somehow the game that is supposed to entertain me is more boring than my job) and too casual. You have to do a lot of repetitive work, and at the same time you don't really need to do it good. Have to unload some materials? Just drop them at high speed by pressing space at the right time, game allows you to do it. Need to dig a few trenches? Bulldoze half the construction site out of existence,…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is not what people say it is. I thought it would be fun and simple, but the instructions are absolute trash, and the game won't allow me to persist on my first job. This definetly explains why it was 70% off.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →My toddler likes construction vehicles. My toddler likes this game. I play this game and feel like a good dad. Good game.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very good game, although I struggled a bit with the mission Morning Energy, but it's a great game.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Y'know when you were a kid and you had those construction toys and you'd spend hours in the sandbox digging holes, moving dirt and what not? That is the VERY essence of this game. It can be tedious at times, like paving, but the parts where you're digging and using the cranes is just like being a kid again, sitting in that sandbox digging holes.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →i have refunded the game , i give it a chance of 85 min trying everything , the physics is realy bad , i am a snowrunner player and since mai playing roadcraft , i am upset with this game and i don t wanna play it even for free :)
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Oh, one of the rarest bugs of Construction Simulator had its origin in this topic, where suddenly, in some rare cases after loading a previous save, the player character would instantly fly out of the map as soon as the game started 🧵
unlabelledView post →Was interested at the title, Connnstruction Simulator, Basically, this isn't a construction simulator but rather a Construction Machinery Game, where the individual, must play the game within the parameters of a task rather than actually simulating an open world construction game. When comparable to other simulation games, this game will iritate you, even with its title which is deceptive at least. I am greatful I spent 3 euro on this game during the Deep Discounts that steam offers and not…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →this game is really bad . the version published should be the one which has never been tested by the producers . i like the idea of it but it has tonnes of bugs that disturb the gameplay . bad graphics , bad physics , bad driving . Sometimes things just dont spawn when u need them for a mission . problems with the controls as sometimes the controls on my ps4 controller dont function at all although i set them correctly in the settings . i remember restarting the game more than real gameplay .…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I have to admit, I really like this game! It's exactly what you would expect, and it can be a lot of fun. I've been playing this game since release, and while it definitely needed some polishing in the beginning, the developers have fixed a lot over the years and turned it into a really fun and stable experience. The game does have some funny bugs from time to time, but in most cases they're easy to fix because the developers included some great reset and teleport options if you ever get…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Buggy and annoying. Had to restart in a second save while doing the tutorial, it kept getting more annoying from there. Controls are full of baffling choices and annoying, too. Waypoints / GPS markers break, In the tutorial the flatbed truck didn't even spawn. Cutting my losses.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Dont be scared away by all the negative comments, this game is very fun, detailed, and realistic. I expected something like Farming Sim. That is not the case at all, you can tell the devs tried their best to make this game realistic and in-depth. Is the camera system annoying at times? Yes, can things be improved? Well duh, its a game! I recommend this to anyone who likes realism and a realistic business challenge. Cant wait to play the new one!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Good game, i think there needs to be a freebuild mode, where you can plan your own job and use placeable items to create your own jobs to build, then when the plans are ready you work through the different build stages, like the contracts or campaigns.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This was clearly made by and for Germans who get off work and play work simulator. I thought this would be at least a little FUN or ARCADE-Y like Contractville. This is genuinely just made for autists who like to play with Tonka Trucks. Boring.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →there are two types of activities, either "play around with voxel dirt" or "move things in 3d space with a crane / arm". There is zero sandbox, you get a strictly defined list of actions you need do in the contract and you just do them in order and move to the next near identical contract.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Paid $3 for this and I still feel like I got robbed, a complete buggy mess with a ton of potential and no execution. Refunding.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →What's up with the game mechanics? When I click the left mouse button, it gets all stuttery the vehicle feels like it's being pushed at the start and turns terribly—the physics are straight out of the 90s. The game isn't worth the price $10 USD is the absolute maximum.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →i love it this game so please update the trafic and control break for driving
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I would not recommend getting this game anymore, it has a lot of bugs that won`t be fixed because this game isn`t supported anymore and the new one is probably going to be way better.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Cool game. It tries hard to be an immersive simulator and achieves just that most of the time. Obviously getting into a game like this you should expect taking your time in order to learn and complete the tasks. Some of them are supposed to be tedious because that is so in real life. So far 25hs in and I've seen a huge variety of machines, tasks, and jobs. Also the game encourages team work through multiplayer with most of the jobs being long projects and harder to do by yourself. My biggest…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →After 13 hour shift working in construction, i get home excited just to play this. Reccomended, 10/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Tried returning to Construction Simulator 22 after not playing since launch. Unfortunately, the same issues remain for me: Controls: imprecise and unintuitive. Camera: frequently behaves unpredictably. Performance: consistent microstutters every second on a 5070 Ti / 64 GB / Ryzen 9 / M.2 setup. Given how long it’s been out, it’s disappointing. It looks like energy went into license-driven DLC rather than making the core game feel good to play.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →who ever was in charge of making the controls never let them near any programing jobs ever again ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Constant stuttering on a good rig and controls this clunky in the big '26 is absolutely unacceptable, even for $2.50. Don't even waste your time.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →"I'd rather try to peel apart Legos that are stuck together with my fingernails than play this game." I almost never write reviews, but this game was frustrating enough that I wanted to warn people. I bought Construction Simulator on sale and spent 1.4 hours trying to finish the first level, which is building a pool. I even got two friends to join me because I figured co-op would make it fun. It didn't. We started with the basic tools and vehicles the game gives you, and it quickly became…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →As an actual carpenter and equipment operator, this game is great. It's a lot of fun, its relaxing and fun with friends to be able to just play, chat and have a few laughs. Its a good way for people who have no knowledge of construction to be exposed to the basics of construction and heavy machinery. This game is also great if you loved the show Mighty Machines as a kid. The graphics could be a touch better but overall they did a good job on the game. I appreciate the fact that you can either…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →By far the best construction sim on the market at the moment. It has licensed brands, a good economy, and fairly solid digging physics—only really rivalled by Out of Ore. The blend of machinery works well. However, it lacks the manual-labour side that it could really benefit from. They previously teased a demolition-focused DLC or future update, along with more attachments that would be interchangeable for excavators. Unfortunately, only a couple of machines actually got bucket-swap…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →change the name game to heavy construction machine simulator
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Terrible controls, can't change most of them making it impossible to play on a 60% keyboard which, lets be real, is a pretty common keyboard size. Cannot even get through the tutorial.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is great! Its simple and relaxing with plenty of projects to do. Haven't played this in multiplayer yet, but can only get better!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's a pretty decent game for a reasonable price, but it's main drawbacks are the optimization and the lack of detailed vehicle interiors (as well as the textures overall). However, the game weighs only 12.5 GB, which is nothing by today's standards, but an optional 4K DLC would have been nice. Other downsides include the controls and the way the heavy vehicles feel...or rather, the lack of feel due to the vehicles' sheer weight. The lack of destructibility is also disappointing, as is the…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Construction Simulator is just Euro Truck Sim's unemployed cousin who found a shovel. 10/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Bit tedious at first until you understand how the gameplay and controls work, then damn its awesome in terms of functionality and what you can operate. Drive heavy machines and trucks in real life and rate this 10/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great game to come home from a stressful day at work and unwind. Great for those who love playing with machines
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is a fantastic game that doesn't work very well. Don't know what I paid for it, and cost is not the issue. While it worked, it was quite like using the actual equipment. It provides the user with an in game mentor who guides you, and all the projects you could ask for. It's clever, well scripted and not too technical. Unfortunately, about 50 hours into the game, the controllers stopped working for no apparent reason. (They work with my other games.) I tried the support options a couple of…
