BeamNG drive is a vehicle simulation video game developed by BeamNG GmbH and released in 2015 as an early access title by the same company. It is a sandbox game that lets you drive many available vehicles and experience realistic soft-body simulation physics, which is arguably the strongest point of the title. This gives you, for example, the ability to perform crash tests on your car and analyze how its body behaves in slow motion.StoryThe game does not focus on telling any kind of bigger story. It does, however, offer a few single-player campaigns with hand-drawn cutscenes and the open world you can freely explore and participate in various challenges scattered across the map.Gameplay and Game ModesThe game’s strongest point is its soft-body simulation physics. Initially, BeamNG drive was just a fun way to perform crash tests and observe the cars as their bodies deform in slow motion, but as time passed, developers decided to implement new ways to enjoy the game and to allow players actually play it, not just simulate crashes.As such, the game now offers a variety of challenges and scenarios to tackle, from racing events to cargo deliveries, while retaining its original value coming from the realistic physics and detailed car destruction.Driven vehicles can have their settings adjusted to personal preferences, both in terms of visuals and car’s maneuverability. You can change car’s color, but also install fender flares, pick different engine transmission, or adjust the suspension using dozens of sliders, just to name a few possibilities and to give you an idea of how much you can actually do.ReceptionBeamNG drive received favorable reviews. They noted the endless possibilities presented before players, as well as the advanced physics that is deep to the level rarely seen in the vehicle simulation genre.
