And you can do all of thee quite easily with the building tools available. It’s all about adapting to your requirements, you might need to add a sticky-up bit to poke a part off a high rock, or create a small, light, fast vehicle to jump a large gap to an isolated area. Hey presto, one beefy hill-climbing beast that could climb up all but the most vertical of cliff edges. Later, I had trouble getting up steep cliffs to the higher areas and the parts they were keeping away from me, so I went back to the drawing board and made a 6-wheeled vehicle with two engines and some carefully positioned ballast to stop my flying backwards off the cliff face. Suddenly I had to slow down to start pushing things, otherwise the bigger impact just shattered my car into numerous pieces. Hey presto, more power! But with great power comes great breakability, as Uncle Ben nearly said. But I needed more power, so strapped another engine into the back. Initially I added a couple more blocks to the front of my car, giving me a U-shaped claw that let me push things around without them scooting off to the side. At this point you need to get your problem solving hat on and think about what you can do. Before too long the balls get a bit more difficult to push around, and keep skewing off to the side, or are too heavy to push around. Kicking off with a small car with a bar at the front to push things around, you’ll be on the hunt for glowing balls that you need to push around and get back to a drone-type thing that processes the balls and turns them into new parts for you. There are a few different ways to play, but chances are you’ll want to start with the campaign which teaches you the ropes and brings new parts and ideas into play slowly and gently. With a Lego-obsessed son, having a pile of parts and the freedom to build whatever you want, a flying submarine, a boat-car, a rocket bike, whatever else… it’s the ideal scenario, isn’t it? Trailmakers lets you do exactly that in a range of ways, and while there are frustrations and question marks over some areas of the game, it’s definitely lives up to its promise. Both Creative and Expedition Mode support multiplayer.The idea of building your own vehicle out of a range of bits, letting you drive, race, fly, sail or any combination of them sounds great to me. Put two seats on your vehicle or race each other towards the next checkpoint – it is up to you. With tons of different blocks, hinges, thrusters and interactive vehicle parts – the sky is not the limit.Play with friendsTrailmakers is even more fun if you play it with a friend. It is a great place to test out crazy machines, and experiment with the physics engine. Here you can build anything you can dream of, and play around with it in the world of Trailmakers. With the next checkpoint in sight but no wheels or wings, how do you and your four jet-engines get across the canyon?Pure creative freedomCreative Mode is where you want to head for an unrestricted, sandbox, vehicle-building experience. The world in Expedition Mode will test your survival skills and ingenuity. Traverse a big world, overcome deep gorges, angry wildlife and all kinds of weather to progress and find new parts that will juice up your machine. With only a few building blocks, you must build, tinker with and rebuild your machine to progress. You have volunteered to join a DIY off-road rally expedition in a distant world. Individually the blocks are fairly simple, but combined the possibilities are endless.Expedition in the makingExpedition Mode is the challenging survival mode of Trailmakers. They can be broken off, refitted and used to build something new. Each block has unique features like shape, weight and functionality. Everything you build is made from physical building blocks. The intuitive builder will get you going in no time. Explore, crash your vehicle, build a better one, and get as far as you can with whatever spare parts you find on your way.Engineering made easyTrailmakers is about building very awesome vehicles and machines, but you don’t need an engineering degree to get started. Journey over grueling mountains, hazardous swamps, and bone-dry deserts on a distant world far from civilization – it is just you, your fellow adventurers and the amazing, jet-powered hover-buggy you built yourself. Trailmakers is available on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC.
