PC Gamer UK
Tweaked, but European trucks lack Yankee charm. [Dec 2008, p.84]
64
GameStar
The developers of "18 Wheels of Steel" have finally left the American highways and found the European country roads. Euro Truck Simulator offers some improvements: motivating missions, European roads and finally nice graphics. But there are also drawbacks. No police, no citizen band radio, no infrastructure worth talking of. If you just want to drive a truck around Europe, you will have fun. But don't expect a challenging simulation like 18 Wheels of Steel.

While the trucks are beautifully modelled, they're inherently less romantic than America's smoke belching monsters. [Dec 2008, p.99]

LEVEL (Czech Republic)
Euro-sequel to popular 18 Wheels of Steel comes with couple of improvements but many parts of previous game were cut-off. Unfortunately those made the game attractive. [Oct 2008]

PC Zone UK
Really frigging dull. [Dec 2008, p.76]
