MudRunner

Driving cars through muddy, dangerous, and sometimes completely covered in water terrains can be super fun. But I am sure not everyone has the vehicles, knowledge, or just the time it would take to learn how to safely drive offroad. Fear not! MadRunner Mobile allows you to drive a variety of vehicles through challenging terrain, sometimes carrying loads and completing tasks. As long as you don’t flip your vehicle, I am sure you’ll do a great job, even without a license.

Evil Hunter Tycoon

Another not-so-realistic simulator, Evil Hunter Tycoon has you developing, designing and managing a town on the outskirts of deadly badlands - picking which shops and facilities to build, but also managing the actual stock of the stores. You're basically running an entire dungeon-town economy, buying loot from fighters for cash, refining that loot into goods, stocking that goods into stores and selling it to those warriors again. All the while they'll head off to fight greater and greater evils, adding more loot and gold into the entire circuit. That's economics!
