I've always loved Euro and American Truck Simulator, at least conceptually. But I spent too much of my youth stuck in my parents' car, driving across Europe, to find the series' purposefully mundane road trips particularly novel. Space, though? That's a more thrilling—and crucially dangerous—setting, and the source of Star Trucker's more thrilling journeys.
While Star Trucker does not merely transpose Truck Simulator from Europe or America to space, veteran truckers will still find the bones welcomingly familiar. As a cosmic trucker, you'll need to pick up cargo hauling jobs, hitch your vehicle to big containers, travel long distances to drop off points, and maintain your fuel levels and the integrity of your truck. Damage and missing deadlines come with big costs, and you may even find yourself out of pocket despite all your hard work.
