If you like trucks games (or simply driving simulators), this is a great game.

Simple to access, beautiful, not too "gourmand" for your PC with a good balance between sim and arcade. The trucks are all beautiful and customizables, missions are differents and landscapes are nice. Ok, it's not THE game of the year but a good game, sure !

If you like trucks you'll love this game. On a completely free map you can move and drive as you like. Transport eggs in a "Super-long-Truck" and try to bring them in time from a to b. Realistic weather and driving engines support you with a great simulation. Get on the street - get Haulin!

This game is smooth relax, you feel like really a truck driver. You transport different goods and saving money for a better truck. The turning point occurs when you have own drivers that make you money and you can buy during a few moment the best truck. Then you keep driving unless you are a fan of this type of game. This game is not complex, so there not occurs bugs and is acceptable polished. This game is a good buy even though I am not hardcore player of this type of games. If you have bad day, close door in your room, turn engine on and transport some goods on distant night journey...

What I can do, what I cannot:

I can rotate around inside the cabin, turn on/off engine, lights, wipers, etc.., switch between first person and third person view

I cannot leave the truck, going to far from road to exploring world (this is not GTA type game :) because there are invisible borders within a certain distance from the road

-----------------------------

PROS: -nice scenery during driving -fancy graphic weak demand on hardware -not disturbed by bugs -acceptable traffic AI -later hold own company in profit (very simple management)

CONS: -if I parked at night with lights off, in the short time I had to do with cops, what is not a bug because you just cannot have the lights off while driving, but simulating rest during parking losts it own magic

This game is mod friendly, I recommend mods: USA3 Map from "glenn52" and Alaska Ice Road which you can find on Youtube

Altough driving is very sensitive when turning itleft and right but the game is actually quite fun, it is easy for a tolddler to play with a little parental help, it has some stategy involved as well.

Very worth the cash!

This is a amazing game ! The loads are big and pretty realistic. Some are the trucks in the game are some of the best on the real world. There are a lot of things you can do on the highways like weight stations, gas stations, repair stations, etc. Some of the cities on the map are pretty popular or important. The sound of the cars and trucks are cool too.It´s a sort of game for relaxing.

This is one of the best simulators on the market next to flight simulator. The game runs smoothly and is easy to play. The game will become more interesting if you were able to buy more assets besides garages, trucks and trailers. It should be possible to buy second hand truck dealers and make money from sales as well as sell your trucks through them. Other businesses like the companies you deliver for must also be purchaseable.

Overall I give the game a four star rating.

It's fairly difficult to make sitting around all day driving in a straight line into an addictive video game, but I can honestly say that this is about as close as you can get.


Graphics are smooth, gameplay is simple and effective. You never quite feel like you're doing anything, but still manage to waste hours at a time and, bizzairely, wake up in the morning witha burning desire to do more.


The main drawback is predictable - it is essentially the same game when you start playing as it is 3 days later. It's one of those games that you will be totally addicted to fo a week or more, then get bored of for several months - before probably coming back to it again. For the price, it's pretty much worth it.
