The vehicles themselves are highly, and I suspect, painfully detailed.
Yes, a game a that plays with differential locks! Finally! Of course there is also an All Wheel Drive option to engage in combo with the diff lock which is usually needed to get out of the deepest mud and up the steepest hills. If you happen to be on uneven terrain the wheels with lest resistance will spin wildy until you engage your differential lock. You can watch at the tread of your tires quickly fill with mud eventually becoming worthless. Some roads have soft shoulders that if you venture to close to will suck you right in. I was really taken by the realistic nature of the environment and the modeling of the trucks. If you choose to be adventurous you will be greeted by the delightful sights and sounds of frame deep mud that slows your truck to crawl in moments. The tech demo encourages you to take these trucks down roads that most of us would wisely avoid in real life.
By default you start with one of three trucks, a Gaz, a Maz (seen below) and an Uaz. More than anything this “game” really digitizes mud better than anything I have seen before. Going by the name Spin Tires, the tech demo puts you behind the wheel of some truly massive Russian style military vehicles as they traverse frame twisting forest trails, quick flowing rivers and copious amounts of mud. Technically, it’s not so much a game but a tech demo to help pave the way for a game in the near future. I came across a “game” this weekend that ended up consuming much of my time.
