RoadCraft has updates ahead of it, including some kind of “hard” mode. I look forward to seeing it evolve because there are aspects I enjoy, and heck, if I ever went back to SnowRunner, I’d miss the ability to manipulate the terrain greatly. But as it stands, RoadCraft doesn’t feel right. At best, it feels more like a toy and less like a game. At worst, it just feels like busy work.

If I had lots of free time, I would probably enjoy it a lot more. But I don't, so tipping over with a cargo bay full of steel beams makes me frown, where it might have otherwise made me laugh. This, I think, is another issue. RoadCraft is a podcast game, in the same vein as Truck Simulator or Elite: Dangerous. There's a big place for games like this in the world, sims that excel in delivering a specific kind of wonderful and comforting boredom. Slow tasks that act as a reassuring sedative in ...

Saber Interactive are masochists. There’s really no other explanation for the cruel, vehicular-based tortures that they continue to put gamers through. Where MudRunner had you driving through engulfing mud, SnowRunner made that slop colder, wetter and whiter, and Expeditions stranded you in the wilderness, RoadCraft shifts the focus from getting your truck unstuck from the mud and more towards disaster relief.

With its visual prowess, RoadCraft presents a promising foundation for a unique and engaging construction simulator. Its road construction mechanics and realistic environments are impressive. However, it also feels underdeveloped and lacking in customization, which previous Saber Interactive games have. In addition, clunky UI and a plethora of bugs ultimately hold RoadCraft back from realizing its full potential. While dedicated fans of road engineering and construction simulators might enjoy the game’s granular control and visual feedback, “RoadCraft” requires significant improvements and additions before it can truly compete with established players in the genre. It’s a game with a strong concept...

RoadCraft is the latest MudRunner offshoot from Saber Interactive. It takes the “how to get there” puzzle of the Runner games and lets you build roads, chop down trees, create bridges and more to rebuild areas devastated by catastrophic weather events.  It’s big, a ton of fun in co-op, and a serene but slow experience solo.

RoadCraft is an amazing simulation experience, but one that doesn't attempt to open its doors to mainstream audiences. Those who already love this brand of games however, will surely find something very satisfying behind the wheels of this heavy machinery.

Everything breaks and entropy always wins, which is all very nice for the nihilists, but the rest of us are trying to get things done. Inevitable deterioration is a problem and in the long run all is dust and ruin, but the long run can be pushed relentlessly into the future seeing as people are basically tool-using monkeys that have gotten very good at making things as they could be rather than accepting them for how they are. When things break we fix them, and while it's a lot easier when the broken things are small enough to pick up...

As someone who used to live in a third-world country that’s prone to natural disasters, the sight of roadworks tends to be very common, especially when travelling towards the province. Trucks and heavy machinery would be next to you while driving down the highway, as you constantly wonder why these roads break easily during typhoon season. Now, I have learned what it’s like to work behind the wheel in this brand-new game by Saber Interactive – Roadcraft.

RoadCraft feels like the culmination of everything Saber Interactive learned while making its previous simulation games. Its vast variety of vehicles all feel incredibly fun to drive around, and rebuilding a place that got wrecked by natural disasters can be incredibly rewarding.

RoadCraft is closer to building sims than to being the successor of transporting goods through difficult terrain. Perhaps thanks to this, I really enjoyed playing.

Can we fix it? Well, that often depends on whether you’ll let me deliver the bits myself.

It seems like an absolute age since we first sat down to sample Pavel Zagrebelnyy's inspired off-road sim, Spintires, when we first caught wind of it back in 2014 and, even then, this intricate and hugely challenging slice of driving action felt as though there was something very special in its unique, almost puzzle-esque mixture of unforgiving mud obstacles and strict resource management. There was a deeply addictive core to this game that raised it way beyond any rough edges and jankiness. Of which there were plenty.

Easily better than Snowrunner or Expeditions, Roadcraft is one of 2025’s best, and a convincing argument that even the most esoteric subject matter can be translated into compelling videogames.

Roadcraft, Saber Interactive's latest entry in the "drive through the mud to rebuild or tear things down" simulator genre, will feel instantly familiar to fans of MudRunner and SnowRunner. However, Roadcraft confidently stands on its own, offering a fresh approach to each scenario while lowering the barrier to entry for newcomers. Players can live out their childhood fantasies by getting behind the wheel of their favorite toy construction vehicles - only this time, in an immersive, occasionally challenging, but consistently enjoyable simulator.

RoadCraft is everything I had previously enjoyed in Expeditions while building upon it with increased challenges and task that will test players each step of the way and require some clever thinking at times.

While Roadcraft can slow to a crawl at times and has moments of frustration because of it, it’s still a lot of fun bringing civilisation back to these battered biomes.

RoadCraft is one of the most niche games out there. It offers an unmatched sandbox building experience with an emphasis on realistic driving, but it suffers from many glitches and bugs and is also one of the least solo-friendly games out there.

Roadcraft is an excellent addition to Saber’s roster of sim titles. Focusing on construction over driving represents a step forward, showing that this formula can do more, especially when the mechanics and depth are as impressive as they are here.

Roadcraft is a wonderful game, and I can’t wait to dive into multiplayer with my friends, which is sure to be absolute carnage. The bottom line is that if you enjoyed Snowrunner, you will enjoy Roadcraft. It’s a rewarding game that offers plenty to dig your teeth into, but don’t expect major changes from its predecessor.

RoadCraft is a must-play for fans of construction simulators. There is a coziness in the laborious nature of its gameplay that is hard to resist, and with a huge amount of content, you’ll be busy cleaning up natural disasters for dozens of hours.
