Inn 1995 year Penn i Teller (famous comics from Las Vegas) designed medley of simple however inventive games titled "Smoke & Mirrors" for Sega Mega-CD. Finally this set never showed up on market, but one of z attached titles became legend. It is undeniably the most boring game in the world. Even today competition is far in back. Title of this historical art is Desert Bus.
In game we became a bus driver, which must go from Tuscon [Arizona] to Las Vegas [Nevada]. Maximum speed is 70 km/h, and everything is in... REAL TIME! It gives us EIGHT hours of driveing!! In changeless desert scenery. There are no other cars, passengers, turns nor other varietis. Even no radio. Straight ahead, for eight hours. AND there is no pause ofcourse. Well.. you can't say that it's not realistic, huh?
What is more, vehicle has small but annoying malfunction. It's always driving a little in right, so you can't toggle UP arrow and take care of something else. Bus requires continuous attention and adjustment of course. It can't be even spectacularly
crashed. If (what is most likely) the driver will fall asleep and bus will go off the road, then it begins to slow down and.. i don't know the exact word, sorry.. anyway the engine will broke and it will stop and wait for help (in real time!). You will be towed back to Tuscon. Probable also in real time.
After arrival in Las Vegas player gain... one point and opportunity to drive back to Tuscon. This time by night. If you'll succeed 8 hours later you'll gain second point and you can go to Vegas. And keep it till the end... of player or console.
