Enjoyable Electrician Simulator

Firstly, I'd like to say that I got the game when it was on sale. I love a good sale!

There's quite a bit that I appreciate with this game. Sure, if you aren't into electrical/technical, and creativity with electrical items, you may not enjoy this game as much as I have. I also have the DLC for this game (Smart Devices). It improves game play, in my opinion.

What I like about it:
* Easy to navigate and activate, though I sometimes get confused and hit the wrong button.
* Quite a few tasks to do
* A bit more variety than just laying wires for a house. You can also repair things.
* You can rewire your own place.
* You can put many inventory items on the floor or ceiling until you are ready to use/install them.
* The computer has sales for items.
* You can favorite a certain repair job type that you enjoy. (workbench repairs)
* You can choose which job you want to take
* You can create a style of how you work (great for us with a bit of OCD) ~run lines neat and orderly, for example.
* The sensors for seeing signals, currents, lines are easy to turn on and off.
* Has a flashlight that is easy to turn on and off
* Has warning for those with sensitivities when the game begins. (Seizures can be scary)
* Has Achievements
* Has Trading Cards
* I'm sure there's other things I can't think of at the moment.

Certificate of Competition, not Completion lol I'm confused.

What I'm not fond of:
* Limited inventory for stocking up on cables, switches, etc. Cables can not be sat down in garage (that I know of).
* It can become tedious at times
* Sometimes what you are supposed to do on a job is not exactly totally clear.
* There's a grid you can't seem to hide. I think it's the zone that is picked up with the motion sensor in the DLC I got for the game. (This one may be DLC related only)
* They are calling resistors capacitors. I saw another review about that and they are correct. It seems that everything in here is a capacitor. lol They need to fix that. (There's a youtube video that is good at teaching you the differences between resistors and capacitors).
* I'm sure there's other things I can't think of at the moment.


NOTE: I have forgotten to flip a breaker a few times. That shock you get. I almost feel like I can feel it, literally. Bzzzzt ! !
