Should the player be successful, however, he will be awarded one point and has the chance to continue playing the game by taking the bus all the way back to the bus stop in Tucson.
Despite the apparent lack of entertainment and excitement, Desert Bus has numerous fans worldwide with some of them even having managed to reach the maximum score of 99 — a feat which demands a total gaming time of 33 days. In , the game was relaunched and made available for iOS and Android. I really want to play this. Anyone got a link? We hope you like what you see! Please share: Tweet. Email This Post to a Friend.

Limit 5. Otherwise, you'll want to keep your eyes on the road. That's because, like the '90s original, this bus's alignment is slightly off, always guiding the bus toward the right side of a straight road. The alignment is always the tiniest bit off, so even holding your hand in a "perfect" spot will still result in the bus slightly heading to one side. Since neither VR system comes with a foot pedal, you'll have to press a trigger to accelerate; sadly, the game doesn't include a menu to remap controls to, say, a fancy-pants car-simulation rig.
Unlike the mostly quiet original, Desert Bus VR helps you pass its many, many, many hours of expected monotony with myriad weird audio clips. I only tested for 40 minutes before giving up, but in that time, I heard an interview with Jillette about the history of Desert Bus that is hilariously and intentionally boring, along with the sounds of someone coloring in a coloring book while remarking on her progress.
My favorite thing about Desert Bus VR is its newest feature: online game invasion. You can now pick the "ride bus" option to land in a random online player's bus, no matter how far along they are in their drive, and Graham Stark, the co-founder of Desert Bus for Hope, says the more viewers donate, the longer players drive. Which brings us back to Joe, who — after being a Desert Bus volunteer for the past six years — was inspired to quit his job in San Francisco this year and move to Victoria permanently.
