Big Mutha Truckers

Game Overview

Big Mutha Truckers delivers a humorous blend of arcade racing and supply-and-demand economic simulation. Developed by racing game specialists Eutechnyx, the game focuses on the chaotic logistics of long-haul trucking across a interconnected rural map.

The narrative centers on "Ma" Jackson, owner of Big Mutha Truckers, who announces her retirement. To decide who inherits the family business, she challenges her four eccentric adult children—Bobbie-Sue, Cletus, Earl, and Rawkus—to a 60-day trial. The sibling who accumulates the most money by hauling cargo, trading commodities across five distinct towns, and completing side hustles wins the business. Gameplay requires players to monitor market prices at local bars and stores, buy goods cheaply in one town, and transport them across highways filled with rival truckers, corrupt cops, and highway hijackers to sell at a profit.
