Our take on Bus Driver

The defining constraint is scheduled bus driving: routes must be completed on a timetable while traffic laws and passenger safety remain part of the task.

What is Bus Driver?

Bus Driver is a driving simulation focused on scheduled passenger transport rather than racing.

Players select from 12 bus types and operate across 30 routes organized into five difficulty tiers. Each journey follows a planned timetable and requires compliance with traffic regulations, while passenger comfort and safety affect the drive. Duties include school transport, tourist services, sightseeing trips, and prisoner transfers. The city contains districts such as modern areas, old town, suburbs, an airport, and a harbour. Traffic is controlled by an AI system, and routes can take place under different weather conditions and at different times of day. Gameplay-related bonuses and the traffic-rule system provide reasons to repeat routes.
