What players say

Good game. The guys who made this have come a long way and I hope they continue making these types of games for a long time.

In case you want to mix it up with your soviet misery sims and drive truck. Five minutes in you will run low on Vitamin D and accept your fate. Endless slow churning in and through the cold dead earth....
