    YOU CAN DRIVE EVERYWHERE AND EVERYTHING! AWESOME. Some of the cockpit views are a bit off(too low in the cars/trucks to actively navigate) , you can't look around in the car /truck cabs like you can in a helicopter, yes there is helicopters(which I was able to land on a moving train, not requested in the game, just wanted to is all) unfortunately helicopters have invincibility, a big shameYOU CAN DRIVE EVERYWHERE AND EVERYTHING! AWESOME.

The boat cockpit view is on top of the boat despite the cockpit being inside?
    The beach buggies lights are broken even when you put them on as as an upgrade.
    There's a little lock up of frame every now and again, especially when the train passes level 3.

    So there's stuff wrong and some design decisions that don't make sense, I'll not list them all.. Like no hand brake! As far as everything else goes it's just fun, good fun and the chain yanking of fetching and carrying missions never outstay their welcome.
    There's always a decision to make what you want to unlock next, cos there is usually a a few vehicles you want to try next.
    Did I say it's fun, chilled and just like opening a heap of presents on Christmas morning.
    It's a really good mobile to console game and a good argument for mobile games on console, lacks polish in a few areas, but still knocking it outside the park, it's a playground just enjoy, everything is just good enough to enjoy and there is plenty of it for less than 15 quid. It's not mud/snow runner but it's arcade fun all joy no chew.
    Lacks depth and character No multiplayer a missed opportunity    … Expand

    Fantastic game! Great for chilling after a long day at work. It hooked me right away. There is no story that I’ve happened upon yet but the missions you do are really fun. For example one of the first missions I came across had me putting watermelons in the back of a pickup to deliver them to a market.

For example one of the first missions I came across had me putting watermelons in the back of a pickup to deliver them to a market. You have to exit the vehicle and load the melons in first person view, but you have to be gentle or you will destroy them. There is no time limit on that one just a simple relaxing task to make some coin. Once items are loaded they pretty much stay in place so you don’t have to worry about slinging stuff out like gas tanks. Oh yeah you can run out of fuel which I thought would be annoying until I realized that you can load up and refuel gas cans to haul around with you. Great game for everyone. I would definitely have paid full price but got it on sale for 4$.… Expand

    Off the Road Unleashed is an excellent port of a mobile game on the Switch. It's like an arcade version of SnowRunner on different islands. For unlocking cars/trucks or new islands you have to fulfill missions, like winning races, or delivering items from one point to another, etc. Controlling the cars feels good and is easy to learn.

When I started playing, I couldn't put this game down as it's so entertaining and fun. One of the best games I've played this year on Switch. Easily recommended at the sales price.… Expand

    This is a fun little game. There are five maps to unlock, and all of them have a lot to do. There are objectives to complete (or not), cars to unlock (and break), and loot to find. Cars typically are based off real cars, but with new names and minor changes. Like the Vulcan. +2 Bonus Points if you can guess what that’s based after.

Like the Vulcan. +2 Bonus Points if you can guess what that’s based after. As previously mentioned, there is loot on the islands. All over you will find little boxes with upgrades and money in them, as well as repair parts to fix broken cars in the map. These maps have a lot to them, and driving across them can end poorly if you drive like an idiot. Or fly, if you pilot a plane or helicopter. Or sail, if you sail a boat. You get the gist. The closest I can get to describing this game is Asphalt 9 and Snowrunner if they were one. Overall, there aren’t many hitches (just slight camera issues) and it looks really clean. I would recommend to anyone. (P.S. I got forty hours total out of the demo before I got the main game. WORTH IT.)… Expand

    It's a great game, the only main thing not to like about it is that every vehicle has limited fuel, but it's very easy to refuel, using either gas cans, or going to a fuel station, if you get low on fuel, the game always directs you to the nearest fuel station. If you like opened world games with vehicles, I highly recommend this game.
