SnowRunner is a unique title loaded with content. It will take us about 90 hours to complete the main missions. It also has dlcs increasing its duration to 190 hours if we are completists. With numerous and different events, it is a title that does not disappoint and that is very entertaining. Even so if you get bored, you can try it in cooperative where you will have guaranteed laughs. Although the game does not have a soundtrack, its ambient sound and its huge landscapes will be more than enough to please us.

SnowRunner takes the series to new heights as it exceeds MudRunner in every way, while retaining everything that these games are known for. Saber Interactive balances frustration with wins that feel earned, even if that take you many hours in-game to achieve. This is a great entry point for those curious to traverse weathered open-world environments while completing jobs in singleplayer or online coop. SnowRunner is as deep as it is rewarding, and is one not to be missed.

It’s hard not to say that SnowRunner is the sequel to MudRunner. But one can argue that it is also a more gamified and less authorial piece. It feels better to play in the long run, but it lacks the feeling of discovery the previous one had. If anything, the games complement each other. If you do plan on getting it, make sure to grab MudRunner too, even if only for its vibrant mod community.

SnowRunner is worth to be considered as one of the best driving simulation games. The game can be a little slow-paced or too challenging sometimes, but totally, it's a really good game. Saber Interactive newest game is not for everyone, but it's an enjoyable experience for fans who want to try some new challenges.

Despite some insignificant and purely subjective flaws, SnowRunner offers the best offroad simulation experience yet.

SnowRunner is a beautiful - and oftentimes frustrating - experience, but it's that journey you undertake, one that you carve out yourself, that makes all the trials and tribulations worth it. The struggles you face will become obstacles to conquer, with each route forming a sort of puzzle to solve. It may take a while to get into, and if you're having trouble at the start then stick through it, as the long haul is well worth it.

While SnowRunner has a few quirks here and there, overall it's a fantastic game of exploration and brute-force driving.

SnowRunner's realistic depiction of driving through thick mud and dense snow across a vast sandbox is quite admirable. It is, without a doubt, a far better game than its predecessor, complete with a ton more content, and future planned DLC. The three main regions feel distinct, and while beautiful, there are plenty of frustrating moments ahead. Now, if you excuse me, I have a big rig stuck halfway up a mountain in a couple of feet of sludge.

SnowRunner is the stay-inside game we need right now. Slow, rewarding, and providing just enough resistance to keep the player sharp, it's a singularly zen experience that's made for a particular kind of person -- even those who avoid more genre-standard titles.

SnowRunner is an excellent game with wonderful visuals and great controls. It also has a massive amount of content for players to sink their teeth into. The game is slow and can be frustrating, but it's very much worth getting down and dirty with this one.

Basically, if Forza Horizon 4 and American Truck Simulator got drunk and hooked up one night then SnowRunner is what I imagine the result would be. A slower paced game that challenges throughout and stays fresh with a good range of vehicles, upgrades and locations to explore and a great deal of customization.

SnowRunner is an exciting game - despite it being so slow. It's a game for hardcore players with patience and endurance. Even the last mile can mean a stop to your journey. The game gives you a lot of freedom - three open worlds are yours to explore with many quest to fulfill. It's up to you which you tackle first, but you need to decide which upgrades or new vehicles are necessary to get first. SnowRunner has beautiful environments with a great atmosphere - there are some technical hiccups like small fonts and complex menus but it's overall an enjoyable experience for everyone who likes this kind of simulation.

SnowRunner is a dirty game with spotless physics. A truck-sized open world, tiring, slow yet extremely adrenaline-fueled work simulation. Maybe sometimes too tiring, but capable of giving enormous satisfaction.
