Partly this is because Avalanche is better than most at making an open world sing, I guess. And yet it has really, really got its hooks into me, so much so that, faced with a month off work, I'm pretty much playing through it for a second time. Strip out the post-apocalyptic brutality and it's wonderfully comforting stuff. It's a standard open-world game, in other words. You unlock the map so that you can explore more, and solve more puzzles. You explore, you solve simple physics-based puzzles you encounter as you explore.
Mechanically, it's pretty straightforward too: you drive about, you beat up men, you upgrade things so that you're better at driving and beating up men.
The plot of Avalanche's Mad Max game can be summed up as follows: man beats up other men in order to rebuild his car. Not that on the surface there's a lot to misunderstand, of course.

The film’s lengthy delay pushed back production, and then EA got in touch with Miller and offered him $20 million for the game rights. So half of the ride was us fanboying and half was ‘OK, let’s do something’.” was familiar with Wasteland and Fallout and loved the work we’d done. “ The Road Warrior was my favourite movie for a decade. I’d watch it over and over again so I was a huge fan of Miller’s. “I got to fly with him to Whistler, Canada, on the Universal private jet – because Universal used to own half of Interplay – and spend three hours with him,” Interplay founder Brian Fargo told Kotaku. Universal flew Brian Fargo – Interplay’s founder – and George Miller – the man behind Mad Max – to Whistler, Canada, by private jet. The two got talking, Miller shared the script for Fury Road, and together they talked about what a new Mad Max game might look like. If Mad Max: Fury Road had been released twenty years ago, the accompanying video game – currently in development by Avalanche Studios and scheduled for release this coming September – might’ve been created by Fallout developer Interplay.
