Film sickos will instantly recognise the inspiration behind Nitroglyerine! which sees you drive a truck filled with volatile explosives across terrain more rugged than Glen Powell's chin. Its rough and ready demo oozes with the same the lo-fi tension of William Friedkin's Sorcerer, a nihilistic thriller that was critically panned and buried at the box office by the runaway success of Star Wars, but has been (rightly) reappraised in subsequent years.
If you haven't seen Sorcerer, I strongly recommend you check it out. But in the meantime, you can think of Nitroglycerine! as a mix of Snowrunner and Baby Steps. The playable demo skips the surprisingly long setup of Friedkin's film, planting your straight in the cabin of a snorting, grunting '70s flatbed loaded with a single crate of pure liquid concussion. You're then tasked with navigating a twisting morass of slippery, crumbling dirt tracks with nothing but a crude map and nerves of steel.
