Truck-Kun Is Supporting Me From Another World Is Weeaboo Crazy Taxi

Strange Scaffold Strikes Gold Once Again With Truck-Kun Is Supporting Me From Another World Published Jul 29, 2026, 9:00 AM EDT Jade King is Lead Features Editor at The Gamer and University of Sussex journalism graduate with 10+ years covering the video game industry. She has been seen in outlets such as Trusted Reviews, Kotaku UK, VICE, and more over the years covering everything from the latest releases to major events to in-depth interviews. She loves nothing more than speaking with devs, creatives, voice actors, and so many others about the passion behind their craft and bringing that into the hearts of readers everywhere. Truck-Kun Is Supporting Me From Another World?! knows from the opening moments how utterly ridiculous it is. A jaded officer worker has just received some incredible news and is excited to skip out of the office and celebrate. Unfortunately, she is immediately hit by a truck and transported to a fantasy world. She got isekai’d, and it’s all thanks to a lousy truck driver not keeping his eyes on the road. One way or another, he has to make it up to our heroine. Fortunately, she can communicate with our traumatised motorist from another world as she demands he run over pedestrians, destroy local infrastructure, and pull off sick tricks to earn ‘stars’ that can be used to bring her back to the human world. And don’t worry, all those poor folks you murdered will come back, too. Maybe. That’s pretty much the game being delivered by Strange Scaffold here, a developer that has cemented itself with unique gems like Space Warlord Baby Trading Simulator, El Paso Elsewhere, I Am Your Beast, and many more. I’m a huge fan of a studio putting out so many distinctly different games at such a fast clip. Nothing Beats Running People Over With A Virtual Truck Truck-Kun instantly reminded me of arcade classics like Crazy Taxi with its wonderfully fast pace and gameplay where you are constantly completing objectives to beat a timer running down at the top of the screen. These can range from running over pedestrians, driving into a range of fences, benches, and market stalls, or simply drifting for a set number of seconds. They dictate how you play, alongside which objectives reward stars that are needed to meet milestones and progress in the main story. While most sessions start off with a pretty relaxing tone, you will quickly attract attention as cops try to chase you down and objectives become more demanding, making sure you have to consistently switch things up and not rely on the same boring tactics. You also drive very, very fast. Comedically so, once you’ve saved up some boost power and go flying off an awaiting ramp into the sunny sky. The levels you explore aren’t especially massive, but they boast enough variety in their mixture of suburban streets and sunny beaches. And perhaps there are some secret unlockables waiting just around the corner, since Strange Scaffold makes it very clear it has updates planned for the game. The campaign will only take a few hours to get through, and then the focus shifts to chasing high scores or simply driving around and causing chaos for funsies. Driving isn’t the only major gameplay component, however, since our heroine is also doing her part in the fantasy world at the bottom of the screen via a cute pixel art display where she fights monsters. You can help her survive by filling a sword gauge and pressing one of the face buttons to honk your horn to unleash a devastating magic attack. If she takes too much damage, your timer in the real world will tick down faster, so it’s a fun balancing act. Vehicular Manslaughter With A Beautiful, Beating Heart Truck-Kun doesn’t want you to think about the dubious moral implications of your constant vehicular manslaughter as you drive through the sleepy town of Wenvale, USA. It willingly pokes fun at its own existence at every turn alongside the genre tropes it embraces only to willingly subvert. Nowhere is this more clear than in the characters and dialogue, who are decidedly brief, but also packed with wit and charm. Heroine Carissa Ward is no longer a passionate business person, but a buff anime elf with a thirst for monster blood and a hatred for authority. She often teases the truck driver for being too much of a coward to run over innocent people all while dunking on the cops and any semblance of authority that society has to offer. She is an absolute menace, with much of the dialogue poking fun at the absurdity of isekai anime and the idea of a sentient truck murdering everything in sight. It’d be utterly terrifying if everything wasn’t so cute. The game also has a killer ska-inspired soundtrack that had me bopping my head along with the poor pixelated corpses grinding violently across the asphalt. They were turning into weird monsters for our hero to slay in another world, but at least I was having a terrific time. This is another winner from Strange Scaffold that, once again, has the studio refusing to box itself in, offering an experience that may only take a few short hours to beat, but is more than worth your time. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have buff anime elf girls to simp over. Truck-kun is Supporting Me from Another World?!
