Spent an hour getting that lumber? Well that tree ahead may just be your worst nightmare and end your day by damaging your truck past the point of being able to be driven. If this sounds like a quick task, it’s anything except for quick. While this sounds easy enough, you can damage your truck, you can run out of gas, and you can even find yourself being heavily punished with one false move.

The downside here? You’ll be going through more mud, you will run low on fuel, and you will even have to figure out the easiest way to get to your drop off location. Guess what this means for you? You get traverse this muddy landscape, picking up the lumber that the local mill is waiting on, only turn around, and once more traverse the terrain you just crossed.

What do all of these have in common? They make mud. First you have muddy roads, rivers, hills, tress, swamps, and even simple puddles you will have to deal with. Now that you have suited up, taken my old keys, and even gotten comfortable in your new truck in the middle of nowhere, it’s time to get you started. After all, who the Hell builds their logging camps and forgets to have roads paved or at least covered in gravel? Not a problem to you? Then you can have my job. The only problem here? I was ready to walk out on my job, tell the foreman to go screw himself, and turn my keys in for the day. To put it simply: you drive a truck across various landscapes, to pick up loads of logs, take them to different lumber mills, and even haul freight that the company sees fit for you. So yes, I got stuck, and yes I got frustrated as the tutorials pulled me through the games mechanics little by little. After all, I was hauling a large load of wood in a truck in the mud. Trust me, I did, and I held my breath as I waited for my chance to hit a button for the nitrous boost.Īt first, I was confused when I got my hands on a truck, one where I would load up a few logs, drive around in the mud, and almost cringe the moment I noticed I was caught in a rut. If you aren’t familiar with Spintires: MudRunner like I was, you may come into the game rather blind, wondering if it’s a high-octane racing game, or if it was simply a title where you’d get to drive around, getting stuck in the mud from time-to-time. Minor frame rate hitches when near water sources Lacks a mini-map or GPS to help guide players Camera angles are a constant pain to deal with +Use of mud-based physics are insanely well done

+Quite a few vehicles to choose from as players unlock them
