The original version went from tech demo to Kickstarter to Early Access and then full release, but even after release it kept getting updated with new content. It’s also not a sequel to the original Spintires, but rather the continuation of the game after relations with the original publisher fell through.

Spintires: MudRunner isn’t a game about taming the wilderness, but rather surviving it in a fleet of trucks, cars, and other specialized equipment. Spintires: MudRunner sets you in the barely-settled wilderness with a collection of vehicles designed to deal with the harshest conditions, but all the heavy engineering in the world doesn’t help when the mud is deep, bridges are chunks of unfinished wood held together by wishful thinking and the necessary resources to get out of the current mess are back at the garage on the other side of the map. Not everything revolves around getting places when the road has already been cleared, and for that you don’t need top-gear white knuckle driving, but rather power and careful judgement of the terrain. Need for Speed, Burnout, Forza, Dirt Rally and an endless parade of other racing titles have the “fast” thing covered, but the thing about speed is that it’s only one of the great things about driving a vehicle.

Zipping down the road at top speed to prove nobody’s a better, speedier, more skilled driver is an incredible rush. One of the great things about cars is going fast.
