Simulation
The "simulator" type is assigned to two kinds of games. The first represents a simulator of something that does not have its own category. These can be simulators of a game developer, a hacker, a bear, a goat, a fashion designer, and others. The second type of games is of such a genre that can be either arcades (with simplified physics and controls) or simulators (with a focus on realism). For example, in the racing genre, there is Forza Motorsport 5, which is a simulator, and Forza Horizon, which is an arcade. The same applies to sports games.
