    If you’re itching for a true off-roading simulator, then have a look at Spintires: MudRunner. It launched last year on Switch and still manages to provide a very high-quality experience with both gameplay and visuals. Ultra Off-Road Simulator basically looks and feels like someone saw MudRunner and wanted to copy it in the cheapest way possible. Thus, you’re better off just going straight to the source.

    As a novice car gamer, perhaps this critic simply wasn't aware of a hidden option, which held the key to making the camera stay roughly where it was told. Regardless it was a great disappointment to what had been a game promising exploration of the Alaskan wild, which looked great. Frustration at not being able to play it rapidly dispersed any enjoyment from the beautiful, rugged terrain.

    Maybe this game just isn’t for me, but Ultra Off-Road 2019: Alaska is not enjoyable and no matter how realistic it strives to be enjoyability is more important. There isn’t enough to do that’s fun or even looks good enough to be worth $18.99. Even if it goes on sale I’d say it still isn’t worth it.

    Ultra Off-Road 2019: Alaska for the Nintendo Switch is a driving game based on courses with difficult obstacles and conditioning factors but unfortunately there's very little here which provides a worthwhile experience for the player. Repetitive, unchallenging, with a poor and flawed audiovisual performance and without any appeal whatsoever, this is a game that should not have made its path to the Switch eShop.

    If Alaskans actually drove like you do in this game, the whole state would be completely covered in abandoned overturned vehicles.

Ultra Off-Road is something in between. I actually had lots of fun but you can tell from far away that the game was made by a small dev team. For the record - I have a copy of both the Steam and Switch versions.… Expand

    Talk about false advertising, it's nothing like the promo video. Why are you even bothering to look up a review for this non game, surely youTalk about false advertising, it's nothing like the promo video. Why are you even bothering to look up a review for this non game, surely you can smell it!
    I've tried to understand it's premise, it's like when you learn to code. There's stuff happening but lacks any game mechanics. Steer Well clear. Buy Mud runner not this.
    I'd like to like it but there's nothing to save it.
    It's more kind of an explore and find the exit gate, feed the truck and weirdest of all collect pizza and hot dog to feed the driver. If it was 1/3 of the price it might be worth it and I bought it on sale. It would be more at home on a phone and nothing modern, we're looking at at least 5yrs ago
    But they should definitely remove simulator from the title. Deepest ever customization of drive train etc ever, but the actual mechanic of the driving physics don't warrant the effort in learning what effect any of these may have.
    Did the tutorial which said explains how to play, no it doesn't. Obviously they spent a lot of time time creating the custom set for any terrain, but there is no content to support it. You can just get in a truck drive and drive or probably not.
    I played all of it in approximately 1 hour. I drove all terrain, I couldn't really feel any difference between them. trees crash you despite being visibly distant from them. I cannot give this anymore of my time    … Expand
