Discounts on jobs

I’ve got at least two jobs - three if you count parenting, four if you count eating as many salted cameral brownies as I can - but I still love games about jobs. That’s what the latest Steam sale is about. TheSimFest: Hobby Edition salefeatures “games that attempt to simulate a hobby or job”, whether that’s running a zoo, driving a truck, or making magic potions.

Among the most interesting deals are:American Truck Simulatorat 75% off (£3.74/€5), Two Point Hospital likewise 75% off (£6.24/€8.74) andPotion Craftfor 20% off (£9.11/€10). There are dozens of others, however.

Of those three, Potion Craft is maybe the most interesting just because it’s newer. When writing about it six months ago, Alice B said it wasbetter than meditation. It’s a game where crunch up ingredients to make potions to serve to adventurers.

If you think games about jobs are dull, keep in mind that space physics builderSpace Engineersis in here among the likes of Powerwash Simulator. A job for everyone.
