Screw Drivers New Islands Map Guide

Screw Drivers added two new islands in the major October 2025 update. Each island has a distinct character that rewards different vehicle designs. This guide covers both islands in depth, with recommended builds and race strategies.

Offroad Island

The Offroad Island is the larger of the two new maps. It features a mix of gravel roads, dirt paths, and steep hills. The terrain is rougher than the original island, with frequent bumps, elevation changes, and uneven surfaces that punish lightweight racers.

Layout

The Offroad Island is roughly circular, with a coastline on the outer edge and a mountainous interior. The gravel roads wind through valleys and up hills, with several long climbs that test your vehicle’s torque and grip. There are also secret side paths that lead to bonus challenges and collectibles.

Best vehicle builds

Offroad Island rewards high-torque, high-grip vehicles. Build a sturdy chassis with good ground clearance. Use dirt wheels or all-terrain tires for the gravel sections. Equip long-travel suspension to absorb the bumps without losing control.

A combustion engine with a low gear ratio is the classic Offroad setup. The torque helps you climb hills, and the dirt wheels give you grip on the gravel. If you prefer electric, use a TurboVolt engine geared for low-end power rather than top speed.

Avoid pure speed builds on the Offroad Island. They look great on the paved sections but get bounced around on the gravel and lose time on every hill. Bring a balanced vehicle, not a record-breaker.

Races and challenges

The Offroad Island has its own set of races and challenges. Most races are time trials on stretches of gravel, with medals awarded for beating bronze, silver, and gold times. A few races are point-to-point against ghost cars.

There are also off-road specific challenges like hill climbs, where you race to the top of a mountain in the shortest time. These challenges reward vehicles with strong torque and grip. Check the map for the location of each challenge.

Pulo Pangripta

Pulo Pangripta is the second new map. It is an older map that was previously cut from the game but has been revived with new roads and challenges. Pulo Pangripta is highly focused on asphalt racing with smooth transitions and well-designed corners.

Layout

Pulo Pangripta is a smaller island with a dense network of paved roads. The corners are tight and technical, requiring precise driving. There are very few unpaved sections, so this map is ideal for racing enthusiasts who prefer pure road racing.

The roads wind through tropical scenery with mountains, beaches, and small villages. Visually, Pulo Pangripta is one of the most polished maps in the game. There is even a temporary minimap to help you navigate.

Best vehicle builds

Pulo Pangripta rewards speed. Build a low-slung racer with racing wheels and a powerful electric or combustion engine. Aerodynamics matter here because the map has long straights where top speed wins races.

Use a multi-gear transmission with well-spaced ratios. The map has corners of varying tightness, so you need gears that cover everything from hairpins to high-speed sweepers.

Avoid heavy off-road builds on Pulo Pangripta. The paved surface means grip is plentiful and torque matters less than power. A speed build will dominate here, while an off-road build will struggle on the smooth asphalt.

Races and challenges

Pulo Pangripta has several sprint races that are short, intense bursts on the island’s roads. There are also a few endurance races where you lap the island multiple times. Medal times are tight, so practice is essential.

The map also includes a few platformer-style challenges where you need to navigate jumps and obstacles. These are similar to the platformer challenges on Pulau Mahkota. Use a lightweight build with good suspension for these.

Comparing the two maps

Offroad Island is for players who like rough terrain, technical driving, and torque-heavy vehicles. Pulo Pangripta is for players who like pure racing, smooth surfaces, and speed-optimized builds. The two maps complement each other and encourage players to keep multiple vehicle builds ready.

If you only have time for one map, choose based on your preference. Offroad Island is more challenging and requires a specific build. Pulo Pangripta is more forgiving and lets you race with whatever fast vehicle you have.

Tips for both maps

Customize your build for the surface. Players who try to use the same vehicle on both maps usually struggle on one of them. Keep at least two builds ready — one for off-road and one for paved racing.

Use the minimap to find challenge locations. Both maps have bonus challenges hidden off the main paths. The minimap shows challenge icons, so check it before driving.

Practice the corner sequences. Both maps have corner combinations that require a specific racing line. Practice a few laps to find the optimal line before attempting medal runs.
