Offroad Outlaws is built around a sandbox idea: you pick a vehicle, tune it and decide what to do on the trail. The Android game comes from Battle Creek Games, LLC, first appeared on December 19, 2017, and has passed 10 million installs. Google Play is where you install it.
Tuning a truck is the core of Offroad Outlaws
The store description puts vehicle building first. You can adjust suspension stiffness, damping and travel, change axle type, and swap in diesel engines or other upgrades. Liveries, decals and wraps cover the cosmetic side.
The vehicle list goes well beyond trucks. It includes jeeps, ATVs, quads, side-by-sides, rock crawlers, semi trucks, dirt bikes, snowmobiles, jet skis and boats, each described as having its own physics.
A session: jobs, trailers and a friend's trail
A typical run can start with a job, such as hauling a trailer of boulders, hitching up a jet ski or chasing crates for money. Firefighting is also available. There is no fixed story, so play is open and player-driven.
Multiplayer lets you meet friends online to drive through rivers, climb mountains or play capture-the-flag. The Map Maker and Map Editor let you design mud bogs, rock crawls, drag strips or hill climbs, publish them and play maps made by others.
