The career mode isn’t huge but it’s long enough to probably see it through on a weekend. At times, there’s a grace to it as your truck breakdances for the crowd but luck can come into it when a potential wreck lands the right way up.
The events can be the most challenging to succeed at as you look to really make the most of your multiplier. It all feels very freeform and enjoyable. Sometimes lines present themselves where you hit a big ramp, gain some air and the finish with a wall backflip. The trick system is fairly robust and there’s not a lot you won’t score points for. You’re scored on damage but also on stylish tricks. There’s a lot of overlap here with the former focusing more on crushing obstacles. It’s incredibly satisfying to nail a perfect start and the three heat event goes by quickly.ĭestruction and Freestyle events allow you to get tricky.

It’s effectively a head-to-head time trial but knowing when to release your brakes and use the right revs is a compelling combination. With little time to play with, getting the start right can lead to big gains. These are very, very short events that take place on brief tracks. In contrast, the drag races refine the concept in a better manner. It’s a nice idea but you don’t have the room to truly capitalise. Any advantage I gain from it is immediately wiped out by the fact I plough into the truck ahead. One aspect that does feel slightly bungled is hitting optimum revs to give your start a boost. Utilising your rear axle to take tight corners feels unique to the vehicles and it does go some way to giving the four-wheeled beasts some nuance. Understanding how best to handle your wheels in anger is interesting, if a little bland. As does fighting against your bouncy suspension. They’re probably the dullest event type on offer but the bumping and barging you need to do to find your way into the lead makes things interesting.
Standard races take place in relatively short courses with plenty of ramps and opportunities to get airborne. It’s paced rather well and I enjoyed it from start to finish. Whilst the career is still relatively slim, there’s enough here to break up the potential grind of events. They can influence your engine power, income and other aspects of your performance. You can also hire staff to make the best of your chances. The game is very good at informing you of new parts and expired sponsorships. Money’s plentiful and I had a fully upgraded vehicle by the end of the career.
These deals give you additional goals to chase after and it can influence how you race or trick around the muddy temples of speed. Funds can go towards upgrading your truck and you can supplement your coffers with sponsorship deals. All this competition is in service of making money. You’re not held up much and you can bounce from one race to another with very little downtime. There’s a great flow to the ladder with each stage taking a handful of minutes, at best. There are rare occasions when events are focused entirely on races, destruction and drag races, but you’re mostly trying to be a jack of all trades. They usually mix racing with showboating and they manage to remain fresh due to constantly switching disciplines. You have three championships to work towards and each event features multiple stages. Can being different help you stand out from a crowd?Ĭareer mode takes on a simple shape. Despite the dull name, what’s on offer is a tight bundle of fun that mixes tricks with raw racing. Teyon have answered the call with the unimaginatively titled Monster Truck Championship. Monster Trucks look a lot of fun but I rarely see them make appearances in games these days.
