4. Trucks Off Road

 

Now that we have spoken about racing on the race tracks, on the drag strips and in the streets, there is another very big form of racing that often goes under the radar when you end up looking for it – off-roading. These games are supposed to offer a different gameplay experience than racing on asphalt and come with their own set of challenges too, like, how would the car perform in mud and how do different tuning setups affect the gameplay. Trucks Off Road nails it on that part when it comes to mudding and bogging and clocking fast lap times.

In this, you can compete in licensed mud parks in freestyle, circuit racing, drag racing, mud bogging and open play events or take on a career mode to earn championship belts. You can get your hands on several different kinds of trucks that get dirtier as you bog through mud, will get clearer as it goes through water and there is damage simulation too, just to make things realistic.

There’s plenty to tinker around with as well. You can tune your truck by upgrading mechanical items such as engine blocks, blowers for the whistle noise, exhausts, radiators, turbochargers, transmissions, axles and suspensions and have a host of visual customization options too.

All in all, you get everything you need to send it!

5. [Project: Drift]

 

The only kind of driving experience that is left to talk about is drifting. And when it comes to that, the [Project:Drift] takes the cake. The best part about the game is the realistic physics, which can often be confusing too as there is a learning curve involved with the game but that also means that the reward is that much sweeter.

The game has a very no-nonsense approach to everything. You start the game and you just have a single intro screen and no graphics intensive videos or animations like other games. The home screen gives you an option to choose between lots of cars, which you will have to buy from the in-game currency of course. And once you select the car, you have to select between five game modes. You would be spending the most amount of gameplay in the career mode though, where you will have to cross 25 levels wherein you are only allowed a set number of crashes and time. These get more difficult as you progress through the game. The tracks are very intriguing to play and it takes some time getting used to it, just like in the real world, and once you do, you are in for a treat.

You can also choose between a Gymkhana experience or race against time in the racing game mode where you will have to race with a faster car. There’s also a free roam mode to help you practice and improve your skills.
