Snowrunner review
MudRunner helped build a better foundation, and SnowRunner has gone a step further and made much more accessible objectives and goals within each of its playable regions. With Spintires objectives were very loose and nearly non-existent. Mastering things like your differential lock and gears will thankfully come a bit later after you’ve discovered and unlocked a few new vehicles, but beginners should expect a level of challenge in driving right away. This game doesn’t really hold your hand via in depth tutorials, so newcomers may face some steep challenges early on. It’s immediately clear that the game hasn’t detoured even the least bit from its hardcore off-road sim roots, and even in my starter pick-up truck I was given, I had found myself setting winch lines to get through a watery bog right in the starting area 15 minutes into my new game. Much like its predecessor, you’ll kick off SnowRunner with some basic vehicle driving and mechanics tutorials that’ll help gain you some footing. Poised to drop you into snowy lands as the title might give away will this release gain traction on the Nintendo Switch platform, or will we find ourselves buried in over our heads?
Now, from the muddy depths of that hardcore simulation off-roading playground, comes the sequel, SnowRunner from Publisher Focus Home Interactive.
From a clunky sandbox, it found footing with objectives and a broader offroad playground.

That game eventually evolved into a full multiplatform release and rebranded to MudRunner. It was primarily a sandbox for some mud flinging fun with a variety of vehicles that had me reminiscing back to my even older fondness for a similar game called 1nsane, also on PC.

Back in 2014, I stumbled upon an off-road sim game entitled Spintires on the PC platform.
