The developers on that project, Jutsu Games brought a great deal of authenticity to the table. I’d previously written quite a bit about how much I enjoyed one of their other Kickstarted sims, 911 Operator. Gold Rush: The Game (as opposed to the breakfast cereal I suppose?) is yet another realistic job simulator Kickstarted by the folks at PlayWay. Nevertheless, I was compelled (by my boss) to take Gold Rush: The Game for a spin.
As such I was more than a bit skeptical at idea that I would find any enjoyment pretending to be an Alaskan gold miner. Even contemplating actual physical labor is enough to mandate an immediate nap. Sometimes I wonder what life is like for people with actual, physically demanding jobs.
