The Story Behind 18 Wheeler: American Pro Trucker
SEGA released 18 Wheeler: American Pro Trucker for the Sega NAOMI in 2000.
One of the selectable truckers in the arcade version, Nippon Maru, was now made available as an unlockable character. The game was released in arcades in 1999 and ported to the Dreamcast in 2000. Sega followed up on the success of 18 Wheeler with a sequel, The King of Route 66, which was released in the arcades in 2002 and ported to the PlayStation 2.
The first port of the game was released on the Dreamcast. The game was released by Acclaim Entertainment on the PlayStation 2 and GameCube after Sega stopped making consoles and became a software based company.
What You'll Play
18 Wheeler: American Pro Trucker is a racing game for 1 player, played full-speed in the free RetroPlayers.Club Player with its Controller Mapping panel.
Released by Sega, it is faithful to its arcade counterpart, but the voice actors for the characters were changed and it lacks the arcade's cross-country map loading screens. Players are given a set amount of time, but can ram into special vans that will add three seconds to the timer. This was one of the final arcade games to be ported to the Dreamcast after its discontinuation, before Sega became a third-party developer.
Why It Still Hits
18 Wheeler: American Pro Trucker reached Sega NAOMI players in 2000 as a racing game, and the reviews and rankings below are what it is still loaded up for.
Jon Thompson of AllGame gave the same arcade version three stars out of five and wrote that it "does have a fairly thorough scoring system that some will take to, but it lacks the gameplay that great arcade titles such as Crazy Taxi possess. The home versions of the game received "mixed or average reviews" according to the review aggregation website Metacritic. The music is fun, and the voices that come over the 'CB radio' are fairly entertaining.
