How it feels

You play a storm chaser in the 1990s, using vintage gear to track and intercept tornadoes across a realistic open world.

What players say

Players praise the storm chasing feel and visual improvements but are split on fun versus realism. Some find the UI clunky, note invisible tree collision bugs, and say performance is heavy. Others say it runs better after the revamp and call it an underrated gem.
