Motor Town, I am hopelessly obsessed because I am an easy mark. Give me a game with realistic driving mechanics and tire grip modeling that doesn’t force me to go around in circles on a closed race track but rather lets me roam around an open world doing taxi jobs and other stuff and I will become utterly obsessed.
Especially on my steam deck the fact that I can just jump in and out of playing or set my car to autopilot and put the steam deck down while I do other stuff… it is the perfect chill cozy game for me because I can interface with the game any way I want from chill autopilot jobs to pushing 120mph while trying to weave through traffic and keep the car on the road.
It doesn’t run amazing on the steam deck, but it runs well enough the benefits of being able to walk around/chill on the couch while playing outweigh the occasional performance hiccups.
The best way I can describe Motor Town is like if old school Top Gear made a driving game where you can absolutely drive around like it’s Euro Truck Simulator and follow the rules, or you can throw a monster engine into a vehicle and drive it like an utter fucking madman. There are vehicles all the way from sports cars to dump trucks to tow trucks to 18 wheelers so when you get bored of one driving style you can just jump in a different category of vehicle and mix it up.
