Alternate reality, year unknown. The climate had gone crazy, lack of rainfall had turned the whole world into a huge desert. Even weirder… Nights are extremely frosty. Because of the variable and aggressive climate, it is getting harder to find food and water. Weather forecasters predict that soon an endless winter may come. Go on an adventure of a lifetime in your old pickup truck. Remember to bring plenty of fuel, food, and drinks.
Traverse the never-ending desert searching for provisions. Look for fuel, fix the engine, pay attention to the battery, change the turbo charger! Take care of and maintain your lifeline. Explore abandoned buildings, sell the objects you find, check the condition of your car. Collect provisions and hide them at home!
Don’t forget to tend to the battery in your car… When the night comes, your car is the only place where you can hide from the heavy cold. You can also spend the night in uncomfortable roadside motels, which you can come across from time to time. It costs, however.

- trade, Buy, and Sell Objects You Find!
