    Overpass is for a certain type of sadist, and it’s been awhile since a game made me want to stop playing it as quickly as possible. It might have its polish and intent, but the mechanics they serve are frustrating. Perhaps everything I mention makes the game all the more interesting, a game that isn’t for noobs like me and something that would sit comfortably between Surgeon Simulator or Getting Over It. But this makes for a niche game that will bug anyone else. I get the appeal, but it’s simply not fun.

    People calling this game frustrating either have no analogue controls or knowledge as to enduro-like sports, especially regarding thePeople calling this game frustrating either have no analogue controls or knowledge as to enduro-like sports, especially regarding the traction. Lads. This game is not an arcade racer. You simply cannot use full throttle there. It's all about finding the good traction. Now, said that, the game is great and addictive, has great physics and nice views (not as bad as described here somewhere). The only thing I dislike is the sound. It is not bad, but it is also not good. The engines are actually a bit too loud and monotonous, the sounds aren't fully accurate or diverse. The music in the menu though is pretty fantastic. And maybe one more thing, I wish I could change my steering sensitivity for the Xbox controller, I tend to personalise it. But other than that, the game is solid, I like it, worth the price. I disagree with the negative reviews. Perhaps they confused this one with Asphalt 9 and are surprised that a buggy or an ATV simply won't go 45 degrees uphill on full-throttle, because physics.

    Amazing concept however completely unplayable as you can not use throttle control on a computer. Graphics from the early 2000's, veryAmazing concept however completely unplayable as you can not use throttle control on a computer. Graphics from the early 2000's, very challenging and extremely frustrating when you have several attempts at getting up a basic hill in early game. Physics are at the bad end with the extremely top heavy vehicles constantly toppling over.
    This has massive potential and would love to see this improve and look forward to another installment of this game.

    Im being generous giving it a 2 as i said its basically an unplayable game.    … Full Review »

    Not that bad. Great might have said how dare you?) But glad i did. Looked a bit meh on youtube gameplays, but like many games plays betterNot that bad. Great might have said how dare you?) But glad i did. Looked a bit meh on youtube gameplays, but like many games plays better than expected from watching.
    As magazines already said might be a little bit frustrating, even as the "tutorial" has some quite ugly zones, but once you get it it gets fun, a challenge to bypass these zones in later stages too.
    Graphics might not be 2020 in fullhd but its ok, gameplay is smooth, challenging, sometimes hard, but not that frustrating that you woulndt go on giving it a try.
    Carreer overview from what i already saw has stages for some hours to play.
    Sadly the music is only in menüs, no radio/soundtrack while driving.    … Full Review »
