Squint while playing and you could be forgiven for mistaking it for an untextured tech demo. Visually, Funny Truck is blocky and bland. There’s no progression system or purpose to the game play aside from the Platinum trophy. Why do you need to earn points in Funny Truck? Are their leader boards? Are there cosmetic items or unlockables based on your score? Are there rewards for your play? No, no and no. They all slow down the scoring because nothing is faster than simply spinning the car around anyway. It’s not like they’re set up so you can perform stunts or get on a fluid run or anything. They’re slapdash placed around the arena set in a void without any real discernible meaning. These aren’t positioned in any meaningful way. If you at least want to pretend like there’s depth to the game play, there’s a variety of ramps and wobbly platforms to drive over. If you’re looking for a quick Platinum trophy, you can simply push the left and right stick in the same direction and the people will just fly out over and over. Half the time, if you’re travelling at any kind of speed, these people fall out on their own accord as they’re spawned. The aim of the game is to throw these people from the back of the truck. What is unusual is that from the back of this vehicle will spawn groups of people. Upon beginning Funny Truck, you’ll find yourself controlling a truck that looks much like any other truck. There’s one game mode and it’s about as shallow as the menu. If you want to change the sound levels, invert the controls or change the difficulty, you’re out of luck. When the game starts, you’re presented with a one button option to start play. If you want to actually play a game when you buy a game, well… you’re going to be mightily disappointed.įunny Truck has no menu screen. If that’s all you’re after – no judgement here, I was an unashamed trophy hunter in years gone by – then you’ll get what you want from this game. Much like RandomSpin’s other PS4 titles Chickens on the Road and Road Bustle, Funny Truck is little more than a Platinum trophy with a price tag. This game costs less than a Snickers Duo from a Service station and it’ll take you less than 10 minutes to unlock all 22 trophies.
