Gaming Irresponsibly Review – Detour

By design, Detour is a race against time. When the round starts, you have immediate competition with 1-3 other players who may be real or AI, depending on your choices. You have a base of operations, and your ultimate goal is to get a road established so that you can send a number of trucks to the opposite end of the map. As time ticks on, this becomes complicated by existing obstacles as well as the choices made by opposition. Your roads may not cross, so immediately there are bridges and tunnels that begin to form.
