July 2024

Dead game with frustrating mechanics, but the atmosphere is worth every second. I sometimes just walk around the building immersing myself, and watching movies on the in-game TV. There's tons of old content and story signals still here. I hope one day the developer comes back to this project. Voices of the Void looks promising as a spiritual successor, but I love the desert ambiance.

June 2024

Super interesting and unique game, all about learning how to operate and maintain complicated machinery. I really enjoyed my time with Signal Simulator, and I think it's well worth the cost as it stands. The downside of such an awesome game is, abandoned or not, this feels very unfinished. There's a noticeable lack of interesting and unique content, and some odd design choices. For example, the interesting signals have a flat 10% chance to appear in place of random signals, and 'event' signals only appear at specific times during specific days of the month (and only during specific times in-game). It feels very obtuse, like it needed another pass to get it feeling natural. This sucks because the event signals are the real highlights of the game, but the only way you'll likely see them is by looking them up ahead of time and changing your device's time to see them. And that immersion break is the fatal flaw of Signal Simulator. Votv gets compared a lot as a cheaper, superior alternative. I don't think that's a fair comparison because Votv is a love letter to the Source engine pretending to be a SETI game (and it works really well). Conversely, Signal Simulator has a very straightforward approach with its engine and mechanics to focus solely on the SETI aspects. So, TLDR basically play Signal Simulator to learn what Azimuth is and play Votv to learn what a sleep paralysis demon is.

While votv is easier to understand , i feel that this game still has a lot of reason to play it , as its got a totally different style , events and story. People who give the game a thumbs down to just say 'play votv instead' are both undermining the talent of these devs , and judging this game based off of a different interpretation of its gameplay.

April 2024

Ignore the recent reviews saying the game is "abandoned." I think these reviews come from people who haven't experienced 'complete' games and only know the live service model. The dev for Signal Simulator made their game, got it to a point they were happy with, and left it as is to go do other things. Signal Simulator is a complete game, not an abandoned one. Plenty of other reviews do a better job of explaining what is good about this game, but I felt the need to offset the recent negative and unfair reviews. Signal Simulator is an enjoyable experience and worth the money. It's also enjoyable to see where VotV got a lot of inspiration from.

i really enjoyed this but then it became Abandonware. if you want something similar and better in every single way try Voices of The Void. its free and not been abandoned.
