SnowRunner

• The tutorial sends you to Alaska near the end. Go right back to Michigan; the mud there is less treacherous than the Alaskan snow and ice

• Hang on to the Chevrolet pickup the game starts you off with; it can be customized to be a fairly capable Scout early on, which are great for finding watchtowers or checking out new road

• The Tayga 6436 is an excellent all-around heavy truck that you can find and unlock as soon as you get your first garage. This is highly recommended

• https://www.maprunner.info/ is a one-stop wiki/map for all your exploration needs - including the aforementioned Tayga

• There are some goofy control and UI design decisions, but the game is usually good about displaying available controls in menus. Look carefully in e.g. the map and garage menus

• To transfer vehicles between regions, they need to be in the garage, then you Retain them (space on keyboard, X on xbox)
