8 Dumb Video Games That Made You Feel Like A GENIUS

3. Mudrunner

While one might be tempted to call Mudrunner "Death Stranding with cars," it's more apt to say that Death Stranding is Mudrunner with people, given that Saber Interactive's off-roading sim came out two years earlier.

And while at first glance Mudrunner might look like a typical, by-the-numbers driving simulator that'll make you want to put on your best flannel shirt and hit the open road, there's a good deal more to it than that.

In actuality, Mudrunner is basically a puzzle game that just so happens to feature off-road vehicles, given that you'll spend most of the game negotiating tricky, unpaved muddy paths in beat-up trucks to make deliveries with only a map and a compass to guide you.

You'll need to manage your fuel allowance, keep your vehicle in good condition, and use the right tools to free yourself from tricky spots.

The result is a game that's far more demanding than many likely expected from its casual-baiting title and cover art, but one that'll have you bask in the glory of your own resourceful navigation skills when things go your way.
