Spintires: Mudrunner is almost misleading. If you’re reading this and absolutely love this game and the series it is from then yes, I know. How do you review a game that is apparently good at what it does when you hate almost everything about it? Well, this is my homework for the week so let’s see how I get on.
That said, I’ve perservered because fairness matters and this has been one of the hardest reviews I’ve ever written.
But sometimes you redeem a review code and you have to see it through. I’ve never romanticised the idea of being a truck driver on the open roads and back routes of America (even less so the Eastern European mudlands of this game) and roughly sixty seconds into firing up Spintires: Mudrunner I had that dreaded feeling of ‘I’ve made a terrible mistake’ that hits all reviewers when they realise that they are now committed to reviewing a game that is very unlikely to prove their first impression wrong.
