Trash Trek Simulator is a first-person survival game set in the filthy streets, where despair mixes with dark humor. As a homeless outcast with no future, you start from nothing — just you, a dirty backpack, and a trash-fueled dream.
Your mentor John gives you one piece of advice:
“Dig through trash, trade garbage, survive, and thrive in the ruthless world of beggar economics.”
⸻
👤 Singleplayer: A Quick Dive into Chaos
• The singleplayer mode serves as a light tutorial — learn to move, scavenge, and survive.
• Accept your first challenge from John, head to the dump, collect, sort, and sell what you find.
• After the tutorial, return — and you’ll be ready for multiplayer or the brutal life on the streets.
• Even though it’s a solo mode, the city breathes, trash piles up… and the characters have their secrets.
• 🔒 The main story is in development — for now, just listen to the city’s quiet hum.
⸻
🌐 Multiplayer: A Trashy Alliance (with a Hint of Rivalry)
• In multiplayer, players cooperate to complete a shared challenge — gather enough valuable junk as a team.
• But everyone plays a little selfish — hiding valuable finds, withholding rewards, or taking advantage of others’ inattention.
• Scavenge, carry your loot into the team or personal inventory, and decide who really deserves your help…
⸻
🚨 SBS Guards: Enforcers of the Clean Order
• The city has rules. Your trash scavenging isn’t part of the plan.
• Once spotted by an SBS guard, the chase is on. Run or end up in jail.
• Got a baseball bat? You might fight them off… or at least feel a bit better.
⸻
🃏 Side Content
• 🎰 Casino: Blackjack, slot machines, scratchcards. Got luck… or not.
• 💃 Disco: Music, dance it out, roleplay with your friends.
• 👊 NPC Beatdown: Grab a bat and see who’s really dangerous — them… or you.
• 🏕️ Camp Aesthetics: Buy items, place them, improve your camp and boost reputation and comfort.
• 🧼 Showers & Deodorants: Clean yourself, gain authority (and lose the stench). The shower lady will still yell at you though.
⸻
📈 Survival Systems
• Comfort: Increased via food, booze, and camp decor.
• Energy: No food = no sprinting or jumping.
• Authority: Lost by vomiting, gained through hygiene and deodorants.
• Inventories: One temporary (for challenges), one permanent — guard it with your life.
• Minigames: Lockpicking, quick-time events, item RNG, and haggling with the Pawner.
⸻
🧠 Absurd Philosophy
“I once owned a skyscraper, but traded it for the scent of a dumpster.”
— Jožo, local philosopher and lifelong alcoholic
⸻
🔮 What’s Next
• New cities, new camp zones, new challenges.
• Wanted system, police, deeper NPC interactions.
• Story and reputation-based quests.
• More items, features, and core gameplay enhancements.
⸻
Future Expansions
• More locations, more dumpsters, more cities—players can look forward to new areas to explore and loot in future updates.
