Go Overlanding From Your Desk With Over the Hill
If images on Instagram are fuelling your dreams of a 4x4 adventure, but the daily grind is getting in the way, you could soon live out your overland fantasies with Over the Hill.
The latest game from developer Dune Casu, who created Art of Rally, Over the Hill lets you explore the world from your PC, taking a Land Rover-like off-roader through a range of challenging environments.
The trailer above reveals treacherous mountainside paths, open prairies, forests and snowy wildernesses. There’s rock-crawling, deep water fording and harsh weather contend with. Fortunately you can customise your 4x4 to take on the toughest terrain, with features like tow ropes and winches.
Although it’s perfectly possible to enjoy a solo journey, Over the Hill has been designed to be best enjoyed alongside fellow adventurers so you can use teamwork to get you over the most obstinate obstacles.
The graphics are simple and the driving interface also looks quite straightforward. It’s not an accurate simulation, more of an escape vehicle from the everyday ordinary.
Over the Hill will be coming to Steam soon and the developers are currently recruiting players for test drives.
