Offroad Truck Simulator: Heavy Duty Challenge®

ONLY RECOMMEND If you like trucking games AND, that's a big and, AND you can get it DIRT CHEAP. I paid £8.99 and went in with little expectation, I'd say the guys at Nano Games tried their best, Aerosoft as a publisher and developer are prolific for churning out broken cash grab games in lowly contested markets. In the near 10 hours I played I got past the awful janky controls and saw them as a quirk to overcome, never did, my eyes adjusted to the staggeringly poor 25fps I got out of my RTX3080ti. and I enjoyed the challenge of just trying to make it through the championship courses, completing many of the championships and attaining platinum in all but 2 events. Its not that theirs a learning curve, this game is an entity of its own when it comes to vehicle control and camera control, there's no getting used to it. Which is also some of the worst camera positioning and controls I've ever experienced. Makes SpinTiers look intuitive. But amazingly I came out of my weekends playing having had fun and I'm considering going back to finish off the achievements another rainy weekend. Don't bother with cargo mode, the load screen break your truck before you get started. Good job I love S…

This game is garbage and crashes repeatedly! Graphic look bad on all setting! It crashes over and over with no error messages. Looks like it was made before 2010. Driving feels fake even using a steering wheel. Requested a refund.

They forgot to add even basic controller support - and they never will because it was abandoned on launch essentially, Refunded.

Offroad Truck Simulator – Heavy Duty Challenge, developed by Nano Games and published by Aerosoft GmbH, delivers an off-road driving experience centered on the raw power and precision of heavy-duty trucks. Unlike more arcade-focused off-road games, this title leans into a realistic simulation style, aiming to authentically replicate the weight, handling, and complexity of maneuvering large trucks through extreme terrain. It features a mix of competition-based scenarios and open exploration, offering players the chance to test their skills in both structured challenges and free-roaming environments. Whether navigating steep inclines, rocky riverbeds, or narrow trails, the game is designed to push players' understanding of vehicle physics and off-road strategy. The gameplay is split into several distinct modes that help diversify the experience. In the sport or championship mode, players participate in trial-based events similar to real-world truck trial competitions. These are precise, skill-based challenges that reward smart navigation, gear selection, and control over brute speed. The cargo mode shifts focus toward logistics and delivery, tasking players with transporting loads a…

The handling at walking speed is fine, but it has the same sort of unrealistic speed cap like the Spintires games: higher gears are for decoration, the trucks are not capable of reaching even a mild urban city speeds despite their powerful engines. You're going to crawl and walk the truck, even on tarmac. If you can gain some speed, then the steering will be all over the place. I don't know what's so difficult in simulation anything more than 20 km/h in these games, but they keep failing miserably at it. Btw it has relative steering, so if you think you'll casual this on a gamepad, then think again. It's unplayable on anything other than a proper wheel with absolute steering control. I didn't like the external camera controls either. You can't seem to orbit around the truck as well, like in popular games (GTA, BeamNG, etc.). I barely could see my lines... All in all I might only consider this game if you're a hardcore truck trial fan. Casuals probably won't like it much, due to its quirkiness. The game's performance wasn't great either. I barely got 30-40 fps on a 4070 TiS on Ultra 4K.

something wrong with this game, I have i7 (10 gen) + 1650 (6GB) but it is lagging with medium settings. All plants looks very bad, their texture like scattered beads (not solid trees or bush). Physics so to say "strange". Zero pleasure to play.
