3D-Fahrschule (AKA: 3D Driving-School, 3DFS for short) is an European #1 3D driving simulation software solution from Germany. It enables users to save a lot of time, energy and money to get familiar with the driving skills in very realistic traffic conditions, without risking damages and tickets before taking the official driving exam. Therefore, it is very suitable for novice drivers.
Strictly speaking, it might be more appropriate to define this program as a teaching/training software rather than as a game. Because it has a very high degree of driving simulation, complex road conditions, very strict traffic rules, perfect driving examination system, humanized coach, a variety of realistic vehicle models for choice (such as BMW, jeep, motorcycle, etc.). But due to its fine 3D graphics, high system configuration requirements, and less complicated operations (compared with the real driving in life), we can also completely consider it as a simulation game that can't be replaced by Need for Speed or any other driving games.
In general, 3D-Fahrschule is a very helpful driving simulation tool, in which both super realistic driving operation and traffic rules that are suitable for European countries get reproduced in a very real way. Getting started with it, I am sure you will feel like you're not going to do it, at least you will find it's a bit tricky (such as too many function keys). Therefore, you just need a little more patience and earnest (learning driving is a gradual process too, just like learning everything else in the world). Nevertheless, don't be upset about it, the driving habits developed here will make you benefit a lot (even save your life) when you really drive a car in real life.
