    I have spent too much time in this game. Its addictive. Looks great at 4k on my bigscreen, always enjoy turning this one on after work and rolling over a truck or getting stuck trying to take a shortcut.

Easy fix - fix the hands on the steering wheel, looks like my driver is having an epileptic seizure. 2. Multiplayer, I don't like it, here is the problem, I don't want people in affecting my single player part of the game, this needs addressed as a separate part of the game, meaning make it so it stands alone, maybe this can be accomplished with mods. Speaking of MODS, what they are doing with paying the modders is outstanding, taken right from the makers of ARK, awesome job, don't reinvent the wheel. Someone at Saber is one smart cookie, awesome job. I'm also so happy I went with the season pass, if the base game is anything to go off of the DLC is gonna be awesome!!! Any man or woman that played in the mud with trucks as a kid and does not buy this game is really missing out!!!! I could not recommend this game more if I tried.… Expand

    This game is fantastic. The graphics are gorgeous, camera controls are better, more customization of your trucks has tons of options, and much more. Definitely a step up from the already great Mudrunner. If you enjoyed Mudrunner you will love Snowrunner.

    The game is great. Graphics are way better than I expected on PC. It really looks like a AAA game, no over-exaggeration in here.

It's so fun to drive in such harsh conditions, in mud and snow, it's pretty challenging even without a hard mode that some people requested. There is a lot of content, you will have many many tens of hours to spend in this game. Interiors are looking nice, very good and detailed design. There are multiple upgrades that you can put on your truck, upgrades that affect a lot the gameplay and the way your truck acts in the wild. I would recommend this to everyone who like games like Euro Truck Simulator, but offroad. The map is very big and there will still be some new maps coming in the next months. I'm playing with a gamepad, the controls are not hard to get used to and are pretty well done.

    For the guy that gave a 0 because of wheels support: they said they delayed testing of wheels because of COVID-19 and work for home so that's why it does not fully support wheels (some are working) and doesn't have force feedback on them at the moment. They said they will update/fix this as soon as possible.

    For the guy with Epic Games: no comment. This has nothing to do with the game, just grow up and accept that there can be multiple launchers on the market. The launcher doesn't affect in any way your experience with the game.    … Expand

Este juego mejora en todos los aspectos con respecto a los anteriores juegos: mapas enormes y muy variados, muchísimos vehículos muy detallados, unos gráficos excepcionales, las físicas igual de buenas, hay progresión, varias campañas con tareas principales y secundarias, y muchos más detalles que han mejorado. Si se puede decir algo malo sobre él, y no es culpa del juego, es que sólo se puede comprar a través de la Epic Store, lo cual me parece tedioso, pero el juego en sí es muy bueno y recomendable. Si cumplen lo que se ha hablado sobre el Seasson Pass este juego puede aumentar su contenido y sus horas de juegos de una manera asombrosa (como PayDay 2, una buena base de la que partir y mucho más contenido que se va introduciendo). Como han innovado y mejorado en todos los apartados le doy un rotundo 10, pero pongámoslo en contexto, un 10 dentro de su género, un juego que no tiene competencia, que es muy bueno ofreciendo una experiencia diferente a cualquier cosa. Espero que la saga no acabe aquí y sigan haciendo tan buenos juegos, el público sabe recompensar después. Jueguenlo.… Expand

Anyways, you can clearly see the improvement in physics, graphics of course, and the missions you have to complete throughout the game. The world seems a lot more alive here, you don't feel alone like I personally did in MudRunner. The vehicle's behaviour is very realistic and sheer detailing of the trucks inside and outside is awesome. Every single thing that could be affected by gravity and velocity behaves like it should which just can't be left unnoticed. The world is just spectacular, it's really obvious, there is nothing bad to say about that. The wide variety of trucks is also a big benefit.
    In the end, I'd like to say that if you have just half a brain you should NEVER judge such a great game, which was very hard to make in time, by several inconveniences that you may encounter because Snowrunner is truly one of the best offroading experiences that you could ever get in gaming.    … Expand

    I should add to my review that this game really allows for you to get a sense of achievement. In a time where it is sometimes difficult to make real progress or an impact on our environment or surroundings, Snowrunner has been a great game for me to enjoy and to work towards a goal. You get stuck in the mud, tip over your truck or run out of fuel, but you will try again, and you will succeed. It's very satisfying, and the journey with your truck through the wilderniss just adds to it all. Highly recommend the game to anyone who has patience, perseverence and wants to really get the most out of a game that rewards you in the end.    … Expand

    Lots of vehicles to buy / unlock, all of them are highly detailed (including interiors!)

    You can download new great trucks (I actively use them) and / or enchancements from mod.io, if you don't like vanilla ones.

    Lots of missions, hard but rewarding progression system for getting new trucks upgrades.

    Lots of emotions and fun while overturning your truck, getting deadly stuck in the mud, etc.    … Expand

    The game does extremely bad job at introducing you to all types of cargo, tasks, and hardware. You can easily end up tying to conquer snowy mountains on the 1st level with bad tires and no good trucks. I mean, it says "Snow" on the box, it teleports you to the snowy map after tutorial... But you've got to level up on different maps first, to get your set of tires for snow.

    Beautiful game with a very calm atmosphere. Sometimes you almost feel a little lonely in the wilderness of Alaska.
    Just the right thing if you want to switch off and enjoy your peace and quiet.
    This game is not about hectic, but about planning missions and choosing the right truck for the right task.

    SnowRunner is an exemplary sequel in which the variety of content has increased several times compared to the previous game. There are a lot of new features, and the scale, content and number of maps have increased significantly. But most importantly, the gameplay has become more interesting. Setting up infrastructure in atmospheric locations is more exciting than just hauling logs. At the same time, the deep physical model is still as detailed as before, which will please hardcore fans of the genre. So if you are one of them, then it is definitely worth playing.
