If your idea of a good time is hauling oversized machinery from Point A to Point B, only to be told “Great, now go back to Point A and do it again,” Roadcrafter might just be your jam. It’s like SnowRunner had a lovechild with a construction simulator and then promptly forgot to finish raising it. Let’s get this out of the way: if you were hoping for next-gen physics, deep vehicle customization, or the elusive unicorn known as “a bug-free launch,” you’re going to be disappointed. Roadcrafter is less “refined game” and more “interactive checklist with bonus potholes.” Now, credit where it’s due, the crane physics have finally graduated from “paperclip on a string” to “surprisingly competent.” You can now hoist heavy things without your equipment collapsing like it’s made of cooked spaghetti. Bravo. But that’s where the physics party ends. Yes, you can dig dirt. Yes, you can make a big pile of it. No, it doesn’t really help. In fact, you’re more likely to terraform the terrain into a post-apocalyptic nightmare that your AI teammates will happily drive straight into. Speaking of AI, imagine the traffic logic of Grand Theft Auto 1 (yes, the top-down chaos simulator) mixed with the ambition of a toddler trying to fix a flat tire. You’ll spend roughly half your time fixing paths that were working five minutes ago, and the other half watching in disbelief as your AI convoy suddenly veers off course like it’s chasing ghosts through the trees. Fuel? That’s not per-vehicle anymore. No, no, now it’s some weird base-wide fuel karma system that you burn through every time you sneeze too hard. Summoning vehicles is cool, until they materialize 30 yards off target and instantly sink into a conveniently placed swamp. It's like your garage is run by a drunk wizard. And let’s not forget the flashing green light that now lives in the top right corner of your screen, pulsing like a rave invitation from your GPU. I assume it's a driver issue, but hey, if you squint, it kind of sets a mood. A very alarming one. As for the terrain… have you ever seen a bulldozer attempt a rodeo? Because Roadcrafter is here to show you that majestic horror if you ever attempt to take it over a log road. I had a blissful eight hours where I didn’t flip a single vehicle and genuinely thought, “Wow, maybe they fixed that.” Then, while driving on flat terrain, no load in tow, my truck suddenly did a sideways barrel roll for no reason. Just… because. Still, overall far less than the chronic narcolepsy my vehicles seemed to have in Snowrunner. I swear I spent more time in that game stuck in the mud, sideways, or both. But despite all of that, I’m enjoying it. No, seriously. It’s fun in a “look at this glorious disaster I’m part of” kind of way. The dispatcher system adds purpose, the AI (when it's not doing donuts in a ditch) makes the world feel more alive, and for once, I’m having fun playing solo which a far shot more than I can say for Snowrunner. There’s something strangely satisfying about fighting both terrain and code to accomplish what should be a simple task. It’s like hiking through molasses uphill...painful, but oddly fulfilling. Roadcrafter is janky, glitchy, and sometimes feels like it’s held together with duct tape and desperation. But underneath all that? There’s a weirdly compelling experience. Let’s just hope the devs keep at it, because this mud-splattered mess has potential.

This is a pretty great game, but I think all the criticism is coming from the wrong places. The first 2 levels of the game are very clearly "tutorial" levels. They are very linear, they have very limited and defined goals and they introduce players to new machinery step by step. These first two levels are long (anyone under 5-10 hours has probably not finished the second level) and understandably they are setting a tone for a lot of people. We are just starting the second phase (out of three) on the second level (Sunken, you can choose between two levels here) and it's much, much more interesting. You already have your fleet and you are asked to do a laundry list of main and optional objectives (some you need to discover) at the same time, in no particular order. This I think is where the game is going. The logistics were much more complicated. It's not just a case of "the game very kindly gave me the concrete to build the bridge right next to the bridge" we had to make the concrete then build the road from the factory to the bridge to get the 7 slabs on the heavy transport (with no AWD or diff lock) over there to deliver. I suspect later levels will build on this kind of thing. I also wonder about the people who complain about the route plotting, because in our experience the vehicles only really got stuck in places we didn't properly pave or clear. I think there is some frustration in that when you get a route to work first time, it can fail in the future, usually because the vehicles have driven over some soft mud and made it so bad it's now impassible. But again, that's our fault for not paving that part or not noticing it when we first scouted the route. This *is the game*. I suspect a lot of people (and I've seen a couple of YouTubers do this) are not actually enjoying the logistics/road building part of the game and they are waiting for the "fun" to start. If the idea of looking at a map for a few minutes, plotting a route and identifying the problem areas. Then going to check them out, marking them with a red exclamation mark for sand/paving or dozing, then acting on it sounds like a chore to you. THIS IS NOT GOING TO BE FUN. Shocking, the game called "Roadcraft" is indeed about building roads and maintaining them. Not driving cargo from A to B, that would be the Runner games. While you do certainly do some cargo moving and some little bits of playing with cranes and stuff, that's just a little fun on the side to break up the game really. I hope this wall of text helped someone. I think it's really unfair this game is getting so many negative reviews. I'd also like to point out that both Snowrunner and Mudrunner came out much worse for ware than this game. Snowrunner, for a long time was a buggy mess, multiplayer just didn't work for anyone. They didn't add proper wheel support for Snowrunner for months, nor did it have hard more or any of the options it has today. It took them YEARS to add that stuff, but they did, and I'm sure it'll come here too. I'm shocked how few bugs are in my game of Roadcraft honestly.

Ok, so I've seen a lot of confusion in the reviews - it is not Snowrunner, it is not Expeditions. This game doesn't focus so much on simulating the big trucks and offroad experience. This is it's own thing focusing rather on the aspect of completing objectives and removing the effects of natural disasters. The fuel consumption and most of the damage model that you've probably known in Snowrunner doesn't exist here. There's no vehicle customization as well. As much as it seemed strange for me at the beginning, I quickly learned that this would quickly make the game tedious. Snowrunner was focusing on a small scale tasks that sometimes required several vehicles. Here you will engage in multi-vehicle operations at all times. Now imagine constantly needing to refuel or repair your vehicles. It would be a nightmare. But it would be cool if the devs considered adding option to switch these things on if someone is masochist :D

*UPDATES AT THE BOTTOM* I'm gonna preface this by saying I was there 5 years and a month ago when Snowrunner released, and first of all, thank you Focus for not making this an Epic Games exclusive for the first year. Now, on to the game review. The sound design is phenomenal, the machines sound great and the environmental sounds are spot on as well, I love hearing the raindrops knocking on the roof of my vehicle while it's raining (though the engine sounds still need tweaking, same looping as it was in Snowrunner). The visuals are an obvious upgrade over Snowrunner and they look great, but truth be told, Snowrunner isn't bad looking either, even after 5 years. For a more gameplay oriented perspective, I like the change of pace, and trying something different this time, instead of the carry x material to y place, we are being more creative this time. For me, this is important, because it gives all vehicles a use, and you're not just using the same, flavor of the month truck to do everything (looking at you, Zikz 605, Mastodon, Tayga King, and Kenworth), every vehicle has a purpose here and I love it. Another very important thing, the driving experience. Some people may feel it's a lot more simplified than Snowrunner, and they would be right, this is first and foremost a strategy and logistics game, driving still being an important part of it, but Roadcraft is rather a hybrid of SR and something like Construction Simulator. BUT, and this is what I absolutely love, the vehicles finally feel like they have weight again, they move deliberately, and you're not rallying around the map, I was really missing this feel from Mudrunner and Spintires, although it's still not as good as it was back then, but a definite upgrade over SR's driving feel. The removal of fuel as a mechanic is absolutely understandable, since managing it would become tedious for most, and take away from the main focus of this game, but I would still like an option to enable or disable it, maybe if we get a New Game + patch, as an option in it. The game also runs well for me with fast load times, averaging about 95 FPS on 2560 x 1440 without frame generation with the following setup: Ryzen 5 7600X, RTX 4070 Ti Super, 64 GB DDR5 RAM @ 6000 MHz, 990 EVO 2 TB M.2 SSD. And for the final verdict: I would absolutely recommend this game to anyone who likes Snowrunner, and wants to mix some new tasks into their offroading experience. Fantastic job, Saber, on the development and release of this game, here's to another 5 years of flipping over! (I will update the review as I continue playing the game, contents based on my playtime with the demo, and the full release so far) UPDATE at 2.7 hours: - still zero crashes, and the game runs great - understandably some people are missing the time of day changing, me, not too much, I prefer to drive in daylight, especially that you need to construct stuff, but the option to enable the passing of time would be great to those who want it - I hope they add full customization to tweak the crane controls for controllers, lot of options, but I'd change the grouping on them if I can - the AI drivers need a bit of refining on their pathfinding logic, or the ability to tell them to turn before reaching the next waypoint, not after, getting an inch of the truck stuck on some random scenery made me replan my routes a ton (might be skill issue on my part), but I love the ability to just bulldoze small plants and stuff out of the way - looking forward to the addition of fuel, and maybe other systems, customization of the gameplay experience gets you a ton of replayability

Completed the tutorial map and enjoyed the gameplay experience, but some parts of the game need improvement, the controls are confusing for example when operating cranes! The game is great i like the textures, the tire marks on the ground and the effects of the mud or water when crossing a puddle or river and the dirt on the vehicles, it's incredible! The controls are confusing, it takes a while to get used The driver does not move, he remains static Loads must be carried manually and strapped No photo mode!
