Love PewDiePie or loathe him - You need to check this out - Tuber Simulator

PewDiePie, the most subscribed to YouTuber in the world isn’t shy when it comes to getting his name out there. With a subscriber base of over 48,000,000 Pewds has clearly earned a reputation for playing video games and screeching at the camera to adorning fans. More power to him. When it comes to releasing his own games it seems the master YouTuber, PewDiePie, knows exactly where to hit. Tuber Simulator saw a release this week and the internet went crazy for it! So much so that the developers, Outerminds, servers crashed after eager fans hammered the game to death! Not bad Pewds!

So exactly is Tuber Simulator? Think 8bit Isometric Art and Voila! You’ll have a rough idea as to the aesthetic style of this beautiful game. Tuber Simulator is available on mobile platforms only but I would not be surprised if we saw a console release later in the year. That’s a bold statement but it comes from a genuine place. Tuber Simulator really is that good. The aim of the game is pretty simple: create YouTube Videos, gain revenue, gain subscribers and build your Gaming Lair as vastly as your imagination will allow. I am not that far in to the game and I’ve already unlocked the NES. A NES! Something that I never expected to see in a PewDiePie game. Now that is class! There are additional unlocks to gain that provide unique design opportunities such as being able to have a fluffy desk that resembles a cat and a dog. It might sound crazy but it fits right in to the eccentricity of Tuber Simulator to which you cannot help but let your imagination run wild. This game will have you gripped and if you have not played Tuber Simulator then pop along to the App Store and download it even if you do not enjoy PewDiePie’s videos.

TheGebs24 HQ - Well at least in Tuber Simulator anyway

You have you little room and your cardboard box and you basic PC. That’s how you’ll start and this is how most YouTubers start in real life: with basic equipment. As with a real life YouTube channel what you put in you will get out and before long your fictional character will be rocking a much bigger room full of swanky gear! Making videos is super simple (I wished it was this simple in reality). It’s one click of a button. You are greeted with a decent amount of video categories such as comedy, nature, gaming and more. Oh and watch out the for eagles taking flight above your games room. Tap them quickly and you are rewarded with more subscribers. Speaking of views, subscribers and perks (and this is very clever) you can choose to run ads in exchange for YouTube views and perks. Ads you say? Yes actual ads that are not related to Tuber Simulator. Usually this would be one of the most annoying features of playing a free mobile game but not in Tuber Simulator as you are rewarded. PewDiePie I am genuinely impressed and needless to say I am hooked.

Tuber Simulator - What is this thing?

“I hate PewDiePie so I am not playing it” We’ve probably all heard statements like this in regards to Tuber Simulator right? I totally understand that certain views will not be changed but ultimately you’re missing out. “But it’s just like every other sim game”. Here’s another fine statement. Is every First Person Shooter a carbon copy of the rest? No. Whilst the basic mechanics are the same each FPS differed greatly. DOOM feels nothing like Half Life 2! My point is, if you are sceptical in any way due to your distaste in PewDiePie then try and park your hatred and download Tuber Simulator. You’ll soon find yourself hooked and wanting to build a bigger and better room. After all who doesn’t want a tiny pet dinosaur running around? Or a giant Yoshi egg? As with anything PewDiePie you will come across eccentricity in many forms. Love it or hate it Tuber Simulator is a fantastic simulation game with a lot of potential.
