OMSI 2 puts you in the driver's seat of buses working routes in Spandau. The included line 5 runs 12 km from Ruhleben subway station to a psychiatric clinic, with other routes and buses from the original OMSI also available.
Drive to timetables and manage the work of a bus route: set destinations and route information, stop for passengers, and operate bus controls and onboard equipment. Vehicle handling, weather, traffic, and day-night conditions are simulated, and buses can develop faults that take time to repair.
A chronology feature lets you travel through Spandau from 1986 to 1994, reflecting changes to routes and the city during those years. The game also includes a map-based editor for creating routes and tools for adding vehicles.
Players often praise the weight, suspension, sounds, and detailed operation of the buses, which make route driving feel convincing to them. Reviews also value the range of community-made maps and buses. At the same time, many describe crashes, stuttering, and a dated interface or graphics; some say the controls and systems take effort to learn, and others criticize the prices of add-ons.
Off to the next round! Experience a new omnibus simulator with OMSI 2 and start discovering Spandau while driving the omnibus. OMSI 2 is the successor of the well-known and awarded omnibus simulator "OMSI - The Bus Simulator". OMSI 2 not only offers the routes and buses you already know from OMSI, but adds lots of exciting new features. In OMSI 2 you can drive the first ever articulated bus in the OMSI history, the MAN NG272. Explore the new omnibus line 5 covering a total distance of 12 km from the subway station Ruhleben to the psychiatric clinic Spandau. Thanks to the newly added chronology function you´ll not only be able to drive through Spandau in 1986, but also to relive the changes taking place in Spandau between 1986 and 1994.
