A steam roller is basically a vintage road roller powered by steam. Back in the day, they were the heavy machinery go-tos for flattening roads and laying foundations. Think of them as the great-grandparents of today's road construction vehicles, but powered by steam instead of diesel or gas. Not to be confused with that digital powerhouse Steam, which rolls out games instead of asphalt!

Lol, if you're asking in a gaming context, sorry to disappoint. Steam rollers have nothing to do with video games. They're actually these old, steam-powered machines used for building and flattening roads. Imagine a giant rolling pin, but instead of dough, it squishes roads into place.

I think you've got your wires crossed, buddy. Steam rollers are those big, old machines for flattening roads, not anything to do with gaming. Though, I like to think of my gaming rig as a sort of steam roller, crushing through frames per second with ease!

Steam rollers? If you're picturing something on Steam flattening digital competition, think again! Steam rollers are old-school heavy construction equipment used to compact soil, gravel, or asphalt. They're powered by steam engines, which is a pretty cool nod to industrial history.
