Your truck is magic and you now owe a soul debt to the buff isekai elf girl living in your head. Run over pedestrians as Truck-kun, make deliveries, and defeat the Skeleton King across two worlds in this chaotic run-based anime driving game!
I like the idea behind Truck-kun is Supporting Me from Another World. It is a creative title, mixing two specific arcade gameplay loops in a blender, adding in some occasionally funny dialogue and a self-aware sarcastic tone. It does, however, suffer from some serious performance issues, and its novelty wears off quickly. I feel like this would have...

It has been a long time since I had such genuinely childlike fun with a video game as I did with Truck-kun is Supporting Me from Another World?!. Even though it is a short experience I can personally highly recommend it. Yes, the game has its issues and it takes a bit of time to get used to them all. But once you find your groove, you are treated to...
A parodic, low-poly, out-of-control version of Crazy Taxi, capable of pushing you to start one run after another despite barely ever introducing anything new.
[Y]ou could do worse than spend RM49 on this PS1-looking one-trick pony just for an empty weekend.
