Overview

Truck Nation Overview

Truck Nation is a 2D, browser-based strategy MMO centered on managing drivers, trucks, and delivery contracts rather than manually steering a rig. Made by Travian Games, it asks players to treat logistics like a long-form competition, where every route choice, upgrade, and association decision contributes to a broader server race. You start by creating an avatar and choosing a home hub city within a selected country, which determines the set of nearby routes and early opportunities available to you.

The overall structure mirrors the timed progression format seen in Rail Nation. A server round advances over a fixed span, with success measured at the end instead of being an endless grind. Over the course of that round, players expand their operations by hiring drivers, purchasing or unlocking better equipment, and repeatedly dispatching jobs to build income and influence. Victory Points ultimately decide the winners, and those points come from competitive objectives such as city control and association headquarters development.

Where Truck Nation becomes more than a simple “send truck, collect money” loop is in the number of interacting variables. Drivers come with differing stats and morale, which pushes you to think about who should run which contracts and when. Deliveries may demand specific trailer types, and that requirement affects both spending priorities and route planning. Progress also comes through advancing through eras, steadily unlocking new tech and truck options as conditions on the map change. At its best, the game feels like a scheduling and investment puzzle played against a live server economy, where coordination inside an Association can matter as much as individual efficiency.

Truck Nation Key Features:

  • Deep, competitive strategy layer – A demanding multiplayer environment where timing, investment choices, and mechanical knowledge have a major impact.
  • Era-based progression – Advance through eras within your chosen country, opening up fresh technology options and improved trucks.
  • Trucks, trailers, and driver management – Build a roster, adapt to contract requirements, and tailor your setup through research and unlocks.
  • World map grounded in reality – Routes connect recognizable places and cities, presented in a grounded, geographic style.
  • Association-focused play – Cooperation is central, Associations coordinate to secure top routes and outperform rival groups.

Release Date: August 6, 2015

Truck Nation is both developed and published by Travian Games, the German studio known for the long-running MMORTS Travian. It launched on August 6, 2015, and at the time it was also planned for a future release on iOS and Android. The game supports German, English, Spanish, and French, and its setting spans multiple real-world countries and regions.

In terms of design, the closest point of reference is Rail Nation, Travian’s earlier transport-focused title released two years prior. Truck Nation applies a similar timed, round-based framework, but shifts the focus to trucking logistics, driver rosters, trailer requirements, and association coordination as the main pillars of competition.
