In Mad Max, the player takes on the role of titular character Mad Max; a dangerous melee fighter and can use his attacks to kill almost anyone. His weapon of choice is his shotgun. He is assisted by another man called Chumbucket. Chum mainly works with Max to build and upgrade the Magnum Opus vehicle. Mad Max will feature a variety of weapons which Max can use to defeat enemies. Though the shotgun is Max's weapon of choice, ammo is scarce, and so melee options are the smarter way to go. The 'thunderstick' is an explosive weapon that can be lanced into an enemy's chest, crackling like a lit dynamite fuse before blowing the victim to smithereens. The Harpoon is also one of Max's favorite weapon though it can only be used in-vehicle with Chum riding along. Max's Magnum Opus can be combined with a speedy V12 engine and powerful ramming ability to destroy enemies's vehicles and weaponry. When simultaneously driving and aiming, the game enters slow-motion and allows you to toggle between targets. Not much is known about the vehicular combat and its features. Mad Max will feature crafting system which can be used to craft new weapons and tools. Max's garage can also be used to change and modify the car's engines, chassis, wheels, body works including paint treatment and the “shell” of the auto-mobile and the car’s weight and attributes update accordingly. Max can also be upgraded though it's plans hasn't fully been implemented. Many choices are given in the game, such as, either playing silently or aggressively. Max can also get guidance from Chum about how he can complete his objectives strategically. However, its largely up to the player how he can complete the objectives.

Hidden gem. Perfect mood. There's only one naturally unobtainable challenge (after servers got shut down) that will require messing with saves.

Other than that - perfect game. If Fallout ever ditches the math and makes a proper post-apocalyptic action this is how to do it.

أحيانًا يكفي عنصر واحد ممتع… عشان تتجاهل كل شيء ثاني ما كان بنفس المستوى، وهذا بالضبط اللي صار لي مع هاللعبة

 

أفضل شيء فيها قتال السيارات. القيادة والتدمير ممتعين جدًا، وطريقة تطوير السيارة؛ كل ترقية تحس بقيمتها وتفرح بأي تحسين تضيفه، مع عالم صحراوي مصمم بشكل جميل ويعكس أجواء الأفلام بشكل ممتاز

 

بصراحة، ما كان عندي أي مشكلة أقضي أغلب وقتي داخل السيارة لأن هالجزء من اللعبة ما كان يمل أبدًا

 

لكن مع الوقت، النزول من السيارة يبدأ يصير ثقيل على النفس... لأن القتال اليدوي ما يتغير ولا يتطور، وتلقى نفسك تعيد نفس الأشياء مثل تنظيف المعسكرات، وقتالات الزعماء المتكررة والمتشابهة، باستثناء الزعيم الأخير اللي كان يوضح كيف كان ممكن تكون مواجهات الزعماء أفضل

 

المشكلة تزيد لما اللعبة تجبرك تسوي محتوى جانبي عشان تتقدم بالقصة، اللي كانت موجودة كشكل فقط، وما حسّيت إني متفاعل معها إلا بالنهايات

 

بالنهاية، رغم كل مشاكلها، ما أقدر أنكر إن اللعبة ممتعة فعلًا من ناحية القيادة والتطوير والأكشن… لكن تعتمد بشكل كبير على مدى تقبلك للتكرار

Welp... I was looking forward to re-visiting this game after playing it on console many years ago, but unfortunately it just crashes to desktop upon each launch.

 

I did see a few Steam and Reddit threads regarding the same issue, with varying reports of success. Not going to spend time trying to get it to work.

Игра в целом неплохая и по-своему интересная, но не более того. Ощущается приятно, без каких-то откровенно раздражающих моментов. Графика на сегодняшний день выглядит плюс-минус достойно, однако не производит сильного впечатления.

Система перемещения по миру на машине сначала показалась мне интересной, но уже через пару часов начала приедаться. Бои на фортах и заставах реализованы неплохо, однако с учётом того, что в 90% случаев это кулачные схватки, со временем они начинают утомлять.

Система репутации в отдельных регионах карты, её повышение и зачистка территорий от врагов поначалу увлекают, но в глобальном плане быстро наскучивают и становятся однообразными.

В итоге из-за постоянных «но» игра остаётся на уровне «хорошо». Ей словно не хватает небольшого шага вперёд, чтобы раскрыться сильнее и выйти на более высокий уровень.

Infelizmente buguei as missões principais do jogo e não estou disposto a refazer o save só para poder fazer a história da forma certa, quem saiba no futuro. O jogo e a história são bastante divertidos, a trilha sonora é ótima, os gráficos são bastante admiráveis.

Many who droped by and watched me play this game thought, it was a recent release in 2025. That tells a lot about how well this game was made. The vehicular combat was new to me, but was easy to learn. The "onboard mechanic" is a nice addition to make the game playable without having to drive too much back and forth. There are enough side activities and loot available to keep the player busy but without being too many so that it becomes a "side mission-game". They are also not too difficult, so that getting required resources is a nice activity. The maps and mazes of main location are great! Well thought through, planned and executed.

Max is suprisingly sensitive to the effects of gravity though. Be careful!

in summary: i love this game. Finally found time to play it. Strong recommendation for this great game with references to a universe, created a long long time ago.

 

Full Steam review:

Unbelievable, that this game was published already nearly a decade ago! It runs perfectly like it was released recently. Set in the universe created by the original Mad Max movies from decades ago, Max finds a great variety on a map, that is very well structured, big enough and has enough surprises to make a looter's heart beat faster. The biggest surprise in this game was the 1:1 fighting though - to be honest: it is one of the best mechanics for MY playing style, that I have encountered. The perks are IMHO a little late - when you get perks for a certain area, the area is often already nearly finished. A great addition is also the vehicle combat - also not something i have encountered very often in games yet. But that is possibly due to me not looking for similar games. A nice detail are in my opinion the historic relics in the game. It explains many details of the universe and leads tot he player understand the world Max is living in WITHOUT the need to study excessively older movies for hours. In summary: strong recommendation for this game. Hours of great gameplay with challenging enough enemies and a logical progression of the character.
