I have spent a couple day’s time driving around in the Russian wilderness hauling logs around in Spintires. I am not exactly sure why, but I did. Even my daughter thought it was a cool game to play co-op in, which I have never figured out. Anyway, those crazy Russian guys are back with Spintires 2: Return of the Spin…..that is what I would have named it. It is actually Spintires: MudRunner. And until its launch, it’s 50% off for us Spintires owners, with a pre-purchase bump that brings the price down to around $14. While it seems tremendously stupid, for some reason the gameplay is very compelling.



With near-photorealistic graphics and incredible physics simulation, Spintires: MudRunner puts you in the driver’s seat of powerful off-road vehicles, and challenges you to face extreme sandbox environments, with only a map, a compass and your driving talents to survive!

Through numerous missions and challenges, off-road vehicle fans will enjoy crossing mud, rivers with strong currents, and climb perilous peaks aboard their 4x4s, trucks and sturdy logistic vehicles designed to withstand the most extreme conditions. Dedicated players and driving enthusiasts will appreciate the hyper-realistic driving sensations thanks to an advanced physics engine, including fuel simulation, a differential transmission system, soft-tire simulation, as well as realistic interactions between vegetation, mud, water, and your vehicle. Lastly, players looking for adventure and open environments will love the freedom offered by the sandbox maps of the game – choose what path to take, through difficult terrain, rivers, forests, swamps, mountains… nature and its dangers will always put you to the test.

Now go haul some logs. You can hit up our thread that is still going strong from 2014. It is full of links to awesome mods and plenty of folks to play with.
