Badlands Crew - Drive, Command, Conquer

Unfortunately, very boring and repetitive. Controls are janky as hell, customization feels pretty limited, and the gameplay loop feels too basic. I think Runner Duck is a one-hit wonder with Bomber Crew. Avoid.

Interesting concept, and absolutely phenomenally bad controls. I know you've heard "bad controls" before but believe me, this is a game where you drive a truck and you can't even choose which direction you drive and have your vehicle reliably move that way. All of the default keys are weird (R forward, F backwards?!) and if you change them, it messes up the controls in the garage without relabeling them. This is a truly monumental usability disaster, an excellent case study in why having terrible controls can sink any game, no matter what else it has going for it. Avoid this game for your own sanity.

I love the Mad Max theme. But not the frustrating controls, boring gameplay and gibbish voices.

Just simply an amazing game. It's so much fun to build the trucks and use all the different weapons and unlock new things... simply incredible

First few hours a very fun but the game gets extremely boring after a few hours. Every mission is borderline the exact same and it just feels like a let down.

I fell in love with this game as soon as I booted it. The menu music alone caught me. I have played the other two installments in the Crew series. And so I had high hopes and high expectations going into this. Must I say, that I basically played through the whole game in one sitting? Well it was more like over the course of a few weeks, perhaps. It is a short game, sure. I finished it with all achievements in under 40 hours. But worth it? Totally! I am not totally sure about the replay value, but I enjoyed it so much, I was really sad by the time I was done with the story. And if I'm not wrong, in a second playthrough, you will actually encounter enemy battle wagons with layouts you created. From the first two games, Bomber Crew and Space Crew, this expanded on one of the most frustrating thing with the two other games. In them you had a very limited amount of crew members. So do you starting off here. But with the ability to grow your crew over time feels really rewarding to progress. Also the layout of your craft (aircraft and spacecraft in first two games) now really turns into a craft. Because now you make them yourself. This allows for so much customisation and also for a lot of optimisation. You can, with a bit of patience, completely remove the nuisances that came with the preset layout in the other games. Also really love the gallery, where it shows you all of your designs after you played. Great feature! Brings up memories I made 5 hours ago. The fact that that can happen is saying something, isn't it? The post apocalyptic theme might be slightly overused, but it fits so well into the series. And don't get me started on the music. Some of the melodies are a regular listen. Using simple instruments and still making such a good soundtrack. And I really love the detail of the instruments in the game being made of scraps and still. Also that perfectly shows how music is important, even post apocalips. So the first two games were already great, but this really took it up a notch. Great game, can absolutely recommend! PS. Also play the other Crew games!
