Spintires: MudRunner Review
Credits
An improved version of the title launched three years ago with new challenges and with the launch for the first time in the new generation consoles where patience will be the main foundation to overcome the obstacles and challenges that we will encounter throughout the game.

Spintires: MudRunner is a different title, far removed from what was seen in the four-wheel genre so far, under an innovation never before seen to date. The challenge will set the pace of the game which will put us at the controls of huge trucks of machinery that we will use to meet various objectives and challenges that are proposed. From tankers to gigantic cranes to catch and transport logs. Up to nineteen different vehicles to face all the challenges.

To begin it will be necessary and highly recommended the tutorial, through which we will learn to drive the vehicles. Everything is very simple because there will be little else apart from removing the hand brake, activating the traction or driving the gears at the right time. Likewise we will have an advanced mode where we will find different options according to the vehicle we carry at each moment. Although the handling is quite simple, in many cases it is not clear what is the exact objective of a challenge or where we must attach a coupling. In the same way, one of the biggest incentives will be to explore the 'open world', dressed only and exclusively with a map, a compass and our driving skills.

As we say the whole game is a challenge where we must challenge nature in all its splendor, cross rivers with low or high current, challenge the void when crossing vertiginous gorges or fight against the sticky mud will not be a tasteful dish for those who with little patience they dare with this title. Somewhere on the map await our arrival with the load, but to overcome the challenge we must act with a head. Spintires: MudRunner is not a game for the freneticism of speed but quite the opposite, we must think very well our next step to follow and move with extreme caution taking advantage of the mapping to solve obstacles with the winch, by which we can adapt to the environment to succeed in many adverse situations.
Full Info
The developers of Spintires: MudRunner have done a great job with the feeling of weight with these vehicles, the distortion of the terrain or the fluids , not only in the graphics, but also in the gameplay. Climb a small ramp that will destabilize the cabin and you will feel the fear of capsizing dragged by the weight of your load. We have to admit our inexperience driving trucks, but the impression of MudRunner has seemed very convincing. And if you really want authentic driving, there is a simulation mode that is even more complicated and with more variables to consider, such as a higher consumption of gasoline.

The game offers six different maps - and other small ones for the challenges -, all of them badly paved, and a cycle that changes the lighting as the hours pass. The missions of the main mode are not very varied, since they are almost always the same, but the choice of the road - to explore first, for example, with a manageable vehicle before with the larger cargo trucks - is what gives a little of freedom to each game. Sometimes a small detour is preferable and climb a mound to fall into a pond. The challenge mode precisely serves as an extended tutorial, because they are more direct and affordable tasks that teach us the best strategies to avoid dangers.

The trees will save us more than once.
However, it must also be said that part of the complications with MudRunner -which we would not define as difficult, but with a somewhat harsh learning curve- is not only due to the realistic behavior, but also the camera plays a little against us. . We have one from the cabin, the most correct for straights or driving on the road, while for maneuvers with the truck you have to use the external one -the internal one does not include rear-view mirrors-, and this one is more unpredictable, because it is not always placed as we want - especially if we have trees or walls nearby . Perhaps a more superior view would facilitate the handling, although we understand that it would be very advantageous.

MudRunner is, in short, a game that does its job well in the playable part, although not so much in the variety of missions, which can also be a bit long -hours-, or in terms of environments -they come to be the same with slight changes
Conclusion
As i said at the beginning, it will be essential to do the tutorial to get control of the vehicles, a quick and simple tutorial. For its part, after the tutorial we find several challenges, nine in total, as mini tutorials, where we will learn to develop in almost all the situations that the game presents us.
Credits
It has several improvements over its predecessor, along with a new open world map, which joins the original five game, improved graphics thirteen new vehicles and other improvements. The fun will be multiplied with the cooperative mode with up to four players where those involved must join forces to overcome the challenges either helping to push the load or revealing the paths to follow, providing gas to other colleagues or repairing damage caused by the crossings .
Credits
Spintires: MudRunner is a different and attractive title for lovers of innovation, a complete game that surpasses its previous delivery with some scandalous graphics and levels where overcoming the various challenges proposed can be a headache for more than one. A new experience on four wheels off-road that offers hours of entertainment, although the visibility of the camera can play a trick on more than one occasion.
Happy Gaming
