    PC Building Simulator 2 sets a new benchmark for simulation games. The attention to detail, the ease of play, the presentation – everything is second to none, and we can’t get enough. Even if you’ve never stared into the insides of a PC before, if you’re intrigued by the idea of tinkering with components, you owe it to yourself to give it a go. Just be sure to set yourself plenty of time aside, because you won’t be able to drag yourself away.

    PC Building Simulator 2 is a relaxing experience that improves the first chapter in every possible way.

    The graphics, building options and PC building itself are improved. Spraying, stickering, water cooling have been added. Tuning has improved, and so has the design of your computer store. Overall, PC Building Simulator 2 is a very well-rounded and expanded game compared to the first one.

    It's safe to say that Spiral House knocked it out of the park with PC Building Simulator 2. They've taken an already proven successful franchise and doused it in some of the best improvements we've ever seen in a game. Between the freshly added storefront and all of the new features, it's well worth the $24.99 price tag.

    You already know if you fancy the idea of PC Building Simulator 2 by the title. What you do here is build, tweak and repair PCs and it’s represented well. However, it’s dry work and people craving an adrenaline high aren’t going to find it spraypainting cases and reseating RAM. A dry, but no less impressive, work sim.

    This game is jam packed filled with content and is a terrific sim if you're keen on those types of games. It's also a great learning tool for those who are looking to get into PC building or those who just love PC building already.

More is being offered such as making custom thermal paste patterns, adding stickers to computer cases, and more features from the little amount from its predecessor. People (like us) can get creative and can build computers whether it's a dream computer or just a cheap budget build that an average person can build in real life. Overall I've really enjoyed this game so far and I'm willing to see what the game has to offer in the future! Expand

It has a great tutorial to get an understanding of the game. Also it's great if you want a future job in this department or if your just interested about pcs. It gives good knowledge about pcs if you want to learn more about building PCs. Also it has many different ways of fixing different problems and you can sell your own PCs as well. I would say I am knocking off 1 point because the graphics could probably be a bit better. Of course it doesn't really have to be but it would be nice. The graphics are still good, it's just when you zoom in and see the detail of the motherboard it looks undetailed. Overall fantastic game, especially for me because I love PCs. Expand

The fractal design torrent has incorrect fans in the front. They are only 2 120mm. The be quiet 500dx has rgb on the case, but in the game you can't control the rgb at all. It's just static white. This worked in pcbs1. Also, you can't swap the fans in an aio so you can't mount, an aio in the front of the case without the fans being on the wrong side AND blowing air out of the case. I just started playing for 4 hours and there's already so many issues. I'm disappointed. Game polish feels lazy Expand

Career mode is a lackluster, and most jobs entail "painting" or putting "stickers" on a PC, which is ridiculous. Graphics have improved a bit, but let us be honest, nobody really cares about a 200 pixel difference when the game sucks.

    A pity the game creator sold it to THE WORST game company around--rivalled only by EA.

    TLDR; **** game, avoid.
    No mod support, and when I submitted a ticket, this was their answer: "We're sorry to hear that you're experiencing some issues with your game. Upon checking, you may need to reject the job or submit a bug report"

    Epic **** Store exclusive with no plans for a steam release. Unfortunate. Hard pass.
