About Under the Sand REDUX - a road trip simulator

✦ AI summary

Under the Sand REDUX - a road trip simulator sends you across a post-apocalyptic desert wasteland in a customizable pickup truck to complete your father's final wish, with hundreds of kilometers of procedurally generated roads, points of interest, and the freedom to forge your own path. Assemble, maintain, and tune nearly every component of your vehicle while managing fuel, water, and character needs in a physics-driven exploration experience with no combat, just pure driving and discovery.

1980's. Alternative reality. Global warming has turned the whole world into a endless desert. Due to the aggressive climate, the blessings of civilization gradually go under the sand. Set out on a long journey on your old pickup truck to fulfill the last request of your late father. But is there a place left on this planet where it’s possible to do this?

  • And this is a game about traveling, after all!

✦ AI summary

Players praise the game's beautiful, meditative atmosphere and its therapeutic quality despite the simple gameplay loop of driving, looting, and upgrading. The developer's commitment to ongoing updates and the game's chill vibe paired with exploration appeal to those seeking a relaxing experience, though some wish there was more variety with random events to break up the repetitive road trips.

Pretty cool so far and unlike other games of this genre, in this one the things you put in the car don't glitch out and fall or fly everywhere through your car. Better driving physics than NFS series too.

Relaxing indie gem with physics and a lot of driving. Somehow you keep driving for more. It well paces out the new locations and items. Don't forget to feed the cat!

People are right when they say, this games got vibes and they are good. Although repetitive, the game is calming and thats really where it shines. I will say the other cars can be a bit hard / monotonous to find or get to spawn. But they do offer unique travel styles and look cool enough to be fun for vibes alone. Honestly just needs more real variety. weather thats with terrain elevation, more POI's, or even maybe a different way to get the cars you want. Its great fun as is, but leaves a lot open to the future.

its a fun road trip game

I pop back to this game every so often play a few hours, still trying to get to the new cars. I like that it still gets support 6 years after release, it's refreshing. If you like driving through the desert and finding random stuff while jamming out to cassettes, then this game is for you.

I feel like I can't say this without it sounding insulting in some way so bear with me a moment. This game does a great job of giving you that experience of driving down a long highway with nothing really to see along the way except landscape, and I feel like that comes off as an insult but I mean it as a compliment. I always loved the feel of driving a long road just to see where it takes me. Now that's not to say there's nothing to see AND you can always go off road and explore. There are landmarks from time to time, though they do get a tad repetitive. Putting together your car right at the start is simple but I enjoyed it. That all said I did get bored after a few maps worth of driving. The controls (mouse and keyboard here) worked rather well. I didn't feel like I was fighting it the whole time which is a problem I've had with some other "put together my car and go driving" type games. It's pretty forgiving. I doubt I'll play anymore anytime soon, but I definitely think it deserves a thumbs up.
