How to play
WASD or arrow keys for driving. Up arrow accelerates (the truck builds speed gradually due to mass); down arrow brakes (engine braking is significant); A and D steer (slow at speed due to mass). Watch the cargo-damage indicator on bumps; watch the fuel gauge between stations. Deliver before the timer expires for full payment.

Editor review
Truck Driver is a semi-truck driving sim in a browser. Procedural routes. Cargo to deliver. Fuel to manage. Damage to avoid. The genre is well-established on PC (Euro Truck Simulator 2 and the American Truck Simulator series) and Truck Driver here aims at a casual version of that.
Right, it doesn't get there. The handling feels light for what's supposed to be 40 tonnes of articulated vehicle. The trailer-physics is missing the inertia that makes the genre work. The procedural routes are flat and visually repetitive. There's no real sense of weight or scale, which is the whole point of a truck sim.
Where it half-succeeds is the cargo-damage mechanic. Take corners too hard and your cargo shifts and accumulates damage. Brake too hard and the same thing. There's a real incentive to drive smoothly. That's the one place where the game is actually interacting with the truck-driving fantasy rather than just dressing up an arcade racer.
Three stars. The fantasy is appealing. The execution doesn't deliver it well enough to recommend, especially with the established PC sims a much better entry point for anyone curious about the genre. Browser truck-sim is a tougher needle to thread than the developer here probably realised.
Did six years in QA at a mobile game publisher before the 2024 layoffs took the team. Now contracts QA and reviews games here on the side. Plays on a refusing-to-upgrade Android phone.
