The game is a comedy destruction simulator for PC (Steam) where players control an enraged bull rampaging through a city. The bull can headbutt crowds into the air, destroy stalls, vehicles, fences, and buildings, and chase panicked crowds that react by climbing onto cars and walls or stumbling and falling. The trailer shows the bull running wild in urban areas, wheat fields, beaches, and grasslands, including knocking people cornered on a cliff into the sea. The developer said they researched actual bull-running events and are attempting to simulate crowd behavior and situations. The game also includes events inspired by bull runs and bullfighting, plus challenges and time-limited objectives. It is described as appealing to fans of 'Goat Simulator,' 'DEEEER Simulator,' or 'Untitled Goose Game.' 'Bull Simulator' is currently in development and scheduled for release on Steam.","whyItMatters":"The developer's stated research into real bull-running events sets this apart from other animal chaos sims, aiming for a level of crowd behavior simulation beyond simple physics sandbox play.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eThe announcement came with a Steam store page and a trailer that shows the bull breaking through obstacles without question, sending people flying with its horns, and causing chaos across multiple settings.
