The net effect of this camera tightrope dance is the game becomes a test of not only your driving skills, but your willingness to see your viewpoint tilt, rise and dip in the interior view as if you’re on rough seas but trundling along at maybe 6 miles an hour. You need to rely on two viewpoints (one for each side of your chosen truck) and a third from just above and behind while also using the interior camera for best results.

Did I mention you also need to press in the Right stick to use the manual transmission? Yeah, it’s tricky to deal with for a bit. Even crazier, the left stick is used to zoom in or out in addition to steering. Unlike other driving games where you can choose from a few set viewpoints, here, you’ll need to deal with adjusting the camera with the right stick which rotates it around your truck. Strangely, for all the tension it packs in (along with the dirtiest windshields since your uncle came to visit from Florida in his unwashed rental car), The game has a way of becoming somewhat… relaxing once you get accustomed to some of its quirks.

Here, you’ll rarely get above 20mph, the paved roads aren’t the widest you’ll drive on, and that mud? It’s practically got a life of its own thanks to an amazing physics engine that’s been tweaked even more from the PC original. While it has a “casual” mode, this clearly isn’t a game for those who want to hop in and get blazing down a dirt road taking corners with powerslides.

MudRunner adds a new (shorter) tutorial, a new sandbox map, a Challenge mode and ups the truck count from 6 to 19. It’s more about control and the ensuing chaos when that control is lost. This isn’t a game about speed at all, folks. Interestingly enough, Spintires: MudRunner (or MudRunner: A Spintires Game) also works supremely well as a hybrid driving/puzzle game where the environment is your worst and sole enemy as you attempt to simply drive from Point A to Point B or just try to enjoy exploring the massive, gorgeously detailed maps. Taking the wheel from original developer Oovee Game Studios, the talented team at Saber Interactive has brought an expanded and even better SPINTIRES experience to consoles and PC with an excellent, highly challenging, and quite rewarding driving game that’s going to baffle some gamers while it pleases a certain bunch of folks who love to play in the mud.
