About the Game

There isn’t much you need for a road trip, just a car, the road, and enough snacks to get you through. Whether it takes days or weeks, as long as you keep going, you’ll reach your final destination.

You just have to keep driving.

You aren’t running away from something, but you might be running towards something.

People say road trips are better with company; you’ve never really agreed.

Still, you ended up with company—it seems like Helia, a strange woman you picked up along the way, means to stay with you for the entire trip.

                              

At least you’ll have someone to talk to.

                       

Death Drive is a visual novel that takes place entirely inside your trusty jalopy as you make the trip across the country from your hometown to the ocean's shore. With only your dark thoughts and a mysterious hitchhiker you met along the way for company, you must navigate the interstate highways to your final destination, making decisions, defining your character in dialogue, and encountering increasingly strange and haunting events.
