Among video games, simulators occupy a special place – be they racing, city-building or more highly specialized ones. Some of them allow you to temporarily get used to the role of carriers of various professions and try yourself as a mechanic or, for example, a chef. Cybersport.ru invites you to look at ten “professional” simulators – of course, you can’t choose a dream job for them, but you can easily expand your horizons!

If you’ve ever wanted to start your own restaurant, you can practice it with TasteMaker. Tycoon offers a full cycle from land acquisition and building construction to personnel management and procurement of products necessary for the functioning of the restaurant. Do not forget about the observance of sanitary standards, elaboration of your own menu and many other nuances. Now TasteMaker is in very early access and does not provide a wide range of features, but the developers are enthusiastic and promise to expand all aspects – over time, there should even appear visitors with different preferences and the opportunity to grow their own vegetables in the garden.
If you have an idea to start a private renovation, you can try yourself in this difficult business at House Flipper. The game offers a full cycle from buying a wreck with destroyed walls to choosing wallpaper and furniture for furnishing and then reselling it. Redevelopment, selection of colors, repair of minor faults (for example, with wiring) and even the conclusion of contracts with customers – the game diligently reproduces most of the situations that arise. Unless you need to argue with contractors because of the missed deadlines and try to make money on cheaper materials. But with additions, you can tackle the bunker furnishings, the arrangement of the garden, or even equip the dwelling in the spirit of cyberpunk – there are many options.
If you’ve ever dreamed of opening your own car workshop, then you can do it virtually – the Car Mechanic Simulator series comes to the rescue. The developers have meticulously reproduced more than four dozen cars that can be disassembled literally by screw in search of breakdowns. The additions bring a couple dozen more licensed cars into the game (never wanted to get under the hood of a 1970 Plymouth Roadrunner?) And various tuning gadgets. And if for some reason you want something more hardcore, simulators of a tank mechanic (by the way, there is a T-34/76!) Or an aircraft from the same developer come to the rescue.
It’s one thing to play the ball on the grass, albeit at a professional level, and quite another to try to assemble a team, taking into account the wishes and budgetary constraints. But you still need to negotiate with the players and the press, select tactics taking into account the strengths and weaknesses of the players, do not forget about training and, of course, the analysis of the results of the games. All this gives you the experience of the Football Manager series, and its latest version makes the process even more realistic and difficult compared to its predecessors. Fans of the most popular sport will have a place to roam here: you can take more than 2,500 clubs under your wing – from regular tournament winners to outsiders.
Perhaps the best way to feel at the helm of an airplane. Beginners should start with built-in training, since it is not so easy to understand all the intricacies of aviation. But, as befits a simulator, Microsoft Flight Simulator honestly reproduces the features of control of various aircraft, allowing, as they say, to feel the difference between heavy passenger carriers and sports light aircraft. Having mastered takeoff, you can move on to the funniest thing – to the landing, which will obviously take a long time. And there it is not far from flying with instrument navigation. If you suddenly don’t feel like hardcore, you can just fly around the world for your own pleasure: the developers regularly release updates, adding details to an already good map.
