We tell you who should skip it, too.
Play it if you…
Good fit- Truck-simulation fans who want to plan routes for oversized loads
- Players who prefer managing a transport company alongside driving
- Driving-focused players who want missions without managing company finances
Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking short, self-contained driving challenges rather than transport missions involving route checks and preparation
- Players looking for a narrow driving-only experience, since missions can involve cranes, cargo handling, and vehicle or company progression
- Players who do not want an open-world setting or a progression structure with unlocks
Our take on Heavy Cargo - The Truck Simulator
Some transports begin with a separate scouting drive: the route is checked in a spotting vehicle before the oversized load sets off.
What is Heavy Cargo - The Truck Simulator?
Heavy Cargo - The Truck Simulator centers on moving oversized freight through a 175 km² European game world.
Before some journeys, players use a spotting vehicle to check the route. They may need to remove barriers, cut signs, check bridge clearance, or place ground plates with a crane before taking the cargo from start to destination. Escort vehicles accompany transports across highways, country roads, towns, and mountain routes, and cranes are also used to unload freight.
Economy Mode involves running a transport company, completing jobs, hiring staff, and expanding a vehicle fleet. Employee Mode focuses on driving missions, with stars earned for completed work. The game includes nearly 30 orders, two truck brands, and more than 100 add-on parts to unlock.
