User reviews & Ratings

Overall, a solid and enjoyable trucking game with some unique ideas. Alaskan Road Truckers does a few things that set it apart, especially the ability to get out of the truck and physically interact with the environment, which ATS and ETS do not focus on at all. There’s a decent amount of content, and the core gameplay loop is enjoyable. While the game does have some bugs and optimization issues, it offers a more hands-on and immersive approach to trucking than most other games in the genre. ATS and ETS both had rough beginnings and improved significantly over time with long-term developer support. Alaskan Road Truckers shows real potential, but with the developers now working on another project, it’s unclear how much future support this title will receive. That said, the game is still receiving updates, and in its current state it provides a fun and unique experience. I’d recommend picking it up on sale. At around $20, it feels like a fair value, especially if you’re looking for something different rather than a direct ATS or ETS replacement.

As someone who has their CDL, ETS and ATS. I had my doubts about getting this, I said to myself the videos don’t look great and I already have what is known as the best truck sim. Wow was I wrong, I am sorry for ever doubting this title, it’s a fantastic trucker game with all the details you can ever want that’s never been available yet. Respect to the devs the physics and handling, weather, life sim aspect everything is amazing! Love parking my truck at a gas station to go in and grab a few things to snack on and return to my truck while watching it’s reflection from the gas station windows it’s just a surreal feeling. All in all, although not the next gen sim and graphics of a title like ATS, it definitely has details for people looking for something more than just driving from a to b, very fun to play! Recommended on or off sale worth it if you want to have a fun trucker life sim game.

For $5.50 (what I paid) I'd say it's worth it Think of it as a truck themed survival game. It's jenkier than ATS or ETS2, but it has a bunch of features people have been dying for in those games. It kinda reminds me of My Summer Car, though without any story or the crazy brutal punishments. You start at the beginning of summer, so you can get acclimated to the game before experiencing winter. For me, this built a lot of anticipation that the game only somewhat lived up to once I reached winter. I talk about this more in the winter section below. General Thoughts/Issues [*]I really liked the photography/viewpoint gameplay, it was a fun way to explore the map. [*]Good lord I need cruise control. [*]I had to edit users/[USERNAME]/AppData/Local/ATS/Saved/Config/WindowsNoEditor/GameUserSettings.ini to get the game to run at full resolution, specifically setting the line sg.ResolutionQuality to 100. Before this, it was a blurry mess, and after this it looks fine, but at least it isn't blurry. [*]It's also crazy that I have to restart Steam after playing this game, as the game doesn't quit nicely on Kubuntu, instead automatically restarting when I quit it, and keeping Steam from doing anything else. I am not sure how this works, but it's annoying. EDIT: This bug has become intermittent. Still annoying of course. [*]I wish controller support were better, I'm just using KB+M at this point. With a controller I couldn't back out of interactions like connecting trailer cables, and I couldn't figure out how to map that button. EDIT: There's an invisible look point to back out. [*]I generally like how the game drives. The trucks feel pretty weighty, they way they loose grip feels ok. They probably stay upright better than irl trucks, but I don't mind that in a game of this style. [*]Connecting the trailer cables is one of my least favorite parts of the game. I think plugging in/unplugging the cable should be one action instead of unplug, then re-plug. I also think there should be an additional animation for climbing over to the other side of the truck while doing cables. [*]So far, roadblock events (downed trees) have been complete non-events, I just drive around them without even slowing down. EDIT: Buy the chainsaw and clear the roads, it's good XP. [*]The map seems to be designed by someone who does not live in the US getting a description of US roads over the phone with a bad connection. It's thoughtfully designed and fun to drive around, but there are some oddities that you would not see on real American roads. Eg. yellow dashed lines separating lanes traveling in the same direction, and some odd placement of street signs. [*]I can't figure out how to check tire wear. Is there even a tire wear system? [*]I love how the Ice Roads DLC links into the main map without a loading screen. I do wish more deliveries took me there though. [*]I'm not a huge fan of how the wipers look. When they're on, no rain/snow hits the windshield where the wipers run. There's also no intermittent wiper setting. I'd love to see a windshield wiper rework. [*]It's kinda weird where the game decides to be hand hold-y. Like it tells me where to pull up to the gas pump which is obvious without the guide, but when I look at the wipers it gives me no indication of how worn they are. [*]Good lord does blown suspension not behave like blown suspension irl. It is sorta entertaining, but man is it wonky. Winter Thoughts/Issues [*]Deform-able snow is neat, but it resets nearly immediately after you drive through it. The cars leave tracks, but they're intermittent and also disappear immediately. [*]I'd love to see billowing snow powder behind the truck when you're driving through deep snow. [*]Why are sports cars driving around in snow up to their windows? [*]Nearly none of the roads are ever plowed or have compacted snow, even in the largest cities in the game, which is weird. [*]Windshield wipers freeze to the windshield, even when the heater is on. Maybe this is realistic, but I can say it doesn't happen to me irl at minus 5 fahrenheit. [*]There's a bug where my guy takes his jacket off, even though I didn't tell him to. I have to un-equip and re-equip it to make it work. [*]Some of the ice roads in the DLC just don't make sense. Why am I offroading this highway spec truck through the mountains when there could just be an ice road on the lake, or a ferry in the summer. It's fun gameplay I guess, but it just doesn't make logical sense to me. Maybe that's how it is irl, but idk. [*]Snow and stuff hits the windshield all winter, even when it isn't snowing. This was just annoying. At least I already had to keep my wipers on all the time to prevent them from freezing to the windshield. [*]Wipers could freeze to the windshield when the windshield wasn't frozen, and I couldn't free them by scraping the windshield, as the windshield wasn't frozen. I had to replace them. In summary, the game has a lot of issues, but I was able to enjoy it despite those issues for the low low price that I paid.

It needs more baking in the oven. It feels like the developer was having a lot of ideas in mind, but they are all unfinished. I hope that they will carry on improving since the game mechanics are interesting and fun.

i just recently bought the game and so far im impressed with this game and all the little mechanics involved like manually attaching the trailer going to the grocery store to get clothes and food and also popping the hood to refill liquids and do repairs. for a small team this is more than 7 dollars is worth. dont let the mixed reviews deter you although with all the optimization reports id only recommend if you have a medium to high end pc
