In their latest news item about TransRoad: USA, Deck13 Hamburg and astragon Entertainment offered players a first impression of the upcoming management simulation game’s campaign mode. Today they would like to take the opportunity to introduce two more game modes: quest and sandbox. TransRoad: USA will be released for PC and Mac on November 9th, 2017.
In contrast to the campaign mode, the gameplay of the quest and sandbox modes will not follow a fixed narrative strand, but will leave tactical and economical decisions up to the player when it comes to establishing and expanding business ventures. One of the first steps to make in both modes will be the selection of the company’s initial trailer license. All three initially available licenses – dry van, reefer or dump trailer – come with pros and cons which the player should carefully consider. This includes different order volumes, payments, fixed costs, purchase prices and nationwide customer distribution. The sandbox mode also lets the player configure the game according to personal needs and wants, such as truck prices and the volume of contractual penalties or the frequency of license checks.
The next choice that awaits the young entrepreneur is where to build the headquarters of the trucking company. While in the campaign mode, the player always starts out in Augusta/Maine, but will be spoiled for choice in the quest and sandbox mode: 37 US cities offering a wide range of goods and customers are up for selection. The number and company size of up to five AI opponents can also be freely determined.
From this point onwards the player will be free to manage the company according to his or her own wishes in the sandbox mode, while the quest mode will feature many interesting and challenging tasks and missions that come in addition to the individually set goals.
How about some uplifting tunes to make all this company building go a little bit smoother? In addition to its own country music inspired soundtrack, TransRoad: USA offers its players an Internet radio plug-in that will give them the opportunity to add their favorite radio stations to the game and thus create the right musical score for their very own trucking adventure.
TransRoad: USA will become available worldwide on November 9th, 2017 for 24.99 Euro/24.99 USD/22.99 GBP (RRP).
