18 itemsAbout the Game
You are alone on the road, trying to reach an unknown destination. Cars pass by in the night, and strangers offer you rides. Some are kind. Some are not. Some should never have stopped at all.
Walk through desolate highways, abandoned gas stations, fog-covered forests, and empty roadside towns. Meet bizarre, unpredictable characters who may help you… or make you disappear.
Every decision matters. Every ride is a gamble.

Observe, investigate, and survive unpredictable situations

A WORLD OF PARANOIA
News reports talk about a series of brutal killings across the region. Radio broadcasts warn travelers to be careful. Posters appear in roadside stops with vague descriptions of a possible suspect.
As tension rises, people become more desperate. Drivers demand payment, favors, or silence. Trust becomes a currency more valuable than money.
And sometimes… you may not be the only one hiding something.
