The follow-up to a tough Finnish driving game quickly attracted over 21,000 players within hours of its release, even though it doesn’t try to be user-friendly.
This unusual game is similar to My Summer Car, a popular title where players build a car from scratch while also managing basic needs like food and money in the Finnish countryside. While it only reached a peak of around 5,900 players at one time, My Summer Car has since earned over 100,000 positive reviews from players.
The sequel in question, aptly named My Winter Car, pretends to offer the same deal but quietly makes it worse by burying you under snow, darkness, and temperatures that can kill you before the engine ever turns over.
My Winter Car explodes on Steam hours after launch
Even though some players found it unwelcoming, My Winter Car quickly became popular on Steam, reaching over 21,000 players online within hours of its launch. It also received more than 1,000 positive reviews in just four hours.
It’s amazing to see such a huge increase in popularity for a game that specifically tells new players they should only try it if they’ve finished the first one.
The sudden increase in interest indicates something unusual is happening, and it seems to be spreading mostly through people talking about it. There’s a lot of buzz on Reddit about the sequel to the 1990s car game, and some early reviewers are even admitting they haven’t fully played it yet, but are still sharing positive feedback to help more people discover it.
Initial Steam reviews often highlight the game’s challenging and unforgiving nature. One player celebrated it as a long-awaited breakthrough, excitedly anticipating the harsh conditions. Another described a chaotic sequence of events – clearing ice, warming up their car, crashing into a tree, and immediately dying due to not wearing a seatbelt – and considered the whole experience a perfect 10 out of 10.
My Winter Car isn’t trying to attract everyone. They believe the people who truly appreciate the game will discover it, no matter how challenging it may be.
