Malarchetts (Otak Country)

Origins

This game was originally called "Snow Hill Buses" but was then used as a testing place for buses before lastly being reused to be called "Malarchetts Transport Simulator", it was planned to open in August 2020 but had never came into fruition until development on this game restarted since January 2024.

Currently the focused experience, Otak Country Bus Simulator (formerly Malarchetts) is the latest installment in OCGH places. It had released on 27th March 2024 in time for the group's birthday. The game slowly introduces Darent Valley and Wootton making this a huge project.

RElease Day - 27-03-24

Valley Buses LTD (now Otak Country Group Holdings) on ROBLOX is a bus company that had operated on various games (namely Croydon, Runswick, Wootton and Worthing) prior to Malarchetts (the former name for Otak Country) opening, the group was created on the evening of 27 March 2020. The release date of the game (Otak Country) was to celebrate the group's 4th birthday. The map itself was based around the 167, that in turn was inspired by Asphalt Studios' own 167 route in their game called 'Islington', it was going to be entirely though the reference of the old 167 by Asphalt goes only between Tajinul Hill Station and Tako Square Bus Garage.

Content Update 1 - 05-05-24

Content Update 1 was the major expansion and partial refreshment in detail of the Otak Country Map. The update included the introduction of new routes 160, 161, 166, 168, 234, partial 302 and OM-1. This has expanded the map through two districts named (in numerical order) 'Oasis Main' and 'Darnley Arch' which were primarily associated with 234 in particular.

Content Update 2 - 08-07-24

Content Update 2 was primarily a 'detailing update' where the majority of the map (more specifically Districts 1-3 excluding 4) had received buildings to make the game more lively than previously. There were three small extensions to the map which was a tiny extension to the north-western part (Tajinul Hill West) adding an 'estate complex' called Miso Complex. Inside District 3 (Oasis-Main), one if its locations (North Oasis) was renamed to 'Mati Green' where it had extended an unfinished road which was a dead end to a large bit of baseplate that was within the road map, this was the baseline for creating 'Mati Green'. The last extension was to the south-west of the map which includes an experimental hill which was not accessible at the time.

In terms of bus route changes, it had altered nearly every route that existed prior and added 9 new bus routes (some in a different category). The new routes were the 162, 169, 233, 245, 303, 633, 634, N167 and N168

The update had also introduced an operator name 'TransporaBus', they initially operated the routes
