Truck Game Description
"18 Wheels of Steel Across America" comes with a few scenarios and a free mode game play. Both start out similar - in the middle of a city with no real direction to go in, just to make money. This is my biggest problem with the game (but won't be a problem if you've played previous versions). A tutorial would explain exactly where the controls are and how to get started. As it is, you are left to figure it out on your own, expect for the manual on the disk. I don't know many gamers who actually read the manual, especially one on screen.
Driving the truck is just realistic enough to get you into a bit of trouble if you do something totally stupid, but generally it's easy enough to enjoy.
If you always wanted something more than a circuit racing game (F1 etc), then you might like this.
