    This is the 1st time I've bought an 18WoS simulator so I didn't really know what I was in for. Until now. The graphics are really nice in this game. The basics on how to control your truck are in the Help folder on your hard drive. This was a nice find. The only problem I found is with that help file. Not knowing anything about the series, it really took some looking on the various forums on how to expand my game play beyond just me driving. The on-drive help folder had just the basic button commands for how to control your truck and nothing more. I also found that controlling your truck is keyboard intensive. I had to ditch my steering wheel and pedals and just rely on keyboard and mouse. In closing ..... Although the graphics are great and the options are there for moving your game play forward.... IMO, this is a grinder's game. Lots and lots of just grinding away the miles not really knowing "why" your doing it. No forced goals. Nada. Would be nice if they had a Multi-Player option in the game that way you could roll with your buddies tourney style.... but nope. Not there. Pure solo grind. Was fun for the week, but now it's wore off and to the back of the game pile it goes.
