Easy Delivery Co. is such a wonderful gem of a game. If you have a retro driving itch, this is a great pick. I was looking for an atmospheric driving game, and this satisfied that itch perfectly. While the graphics are PS1 era, the snow brought me back to the Donkey Kong Country snow/blizzard level - and it was just perfect. Highly recommend checking this one out.
