"I’m not the sort of person to throw cold drinks at small children, and I don’t imagine you are either. I would never see how many parts of someone’s car I could remove before sending them on their way or photocopy my bum in the real world, but here you have it; a game that finally gives you the chance to do all this and more without serious repercussions. Aside from all the silliness there is indeed a great game here too; I’d wager if you had an attention span better than most of the NGB writers you could spend hours doing the tasks as they were meant to be performed and enjoy it enormously. But VR is about offering new ways to play, and new opportunities and possibilities to the player. And Job Simulator is a bright, cheerful and great way to remind us all of that."

About
This 1995 3DO title replicates the inner workings of mechanical pachislot machines with button-mashing row stops and adjustable wagers. Choose from six machine designs modeled after real-world units then set token bets and paylines before spinning. Strategy mode focuses on odds calculation while battle mode pits players against each other in head-to-head scoring contests. The introductory mode walks newcomers through basic mechanics before diving into more complex options. The game’s attention to hardware details stands out with lever pulls button presses and visual recreations of physical reels. Community archives note its rarity as one of the few 3DO titles simulating mechanical gambling devices. While luck dominates outcomes players with math skills can optimize bet sizes and payline selections. Niche appeal remains strong among retro arcade preservationists though modern play sessions top 30 minutes due to repetitive pacing.
