Trailmakers Review

In Trailmakers, you explore an open world in vehicles you have made from Lego-like blocks. Build a car, a plane, a boat or a combination of these, a carplaneboat. The game's physics encourage players to imaginatively combine propulsion, floatation, wheels, grapples and magnets to create machines that can get to the far reaches of the world and collect more building materials.

Take your machines on exciting rally races, dangerous exploration missions, or build the craziest contraptions you can imagine in our huge sandbox. It makes engineering easy, but still nurtures engineering thinking.

Each block has unique features like shape, weight and functionality. They can be broken off, refitted and used to build something new. Individually the blocks are fairly simple, but combined, the possibilities are endless.

In the Stranded in Space game mode you crash land on an alien planet and must escape by rebuilding your spaceship from scrap. Explore the planet to collect the parts you need, but beware of the many dangers that lie ahead.

In the Trailmakers Rally mode you start with just a few basic building blocks and a go-kart track. Progress through the Rally by earning bronze, silver or gold medals. Each race you unlock will give you new blocks to put on your vehicle. With ingenuity, racing skills and perseverance, you will be putting jet engines on your car in no time.
