Long Car Journey

Long Car Journey is set in an alternate reality, in an unknown year, where a lack of rain has turned the world into a desert and nights are extremely cold. Food and water are becoming harder to find, and forecasters warn that an endless winter may be coming. You travel in an old pickup, searching for supplies and trying to keep the car running.

Travel and survive

Explore a large world of roads that lead to different places. There is no map; you can rely on a compass if you find one. Search abandoned buildings and other places in the wasteland, collect items to sell and provisions to take home, and watch for animals running onto the road. Random events can also occur, including the possibility of encountering a hitchhiker.

The day-and-night cycle brings changing temperatures. At night, the car is your refuge from the severe cold, but you need to maintain its battery and heat it to stay warm. You can also spend the night at roadside motels when you find them, though they charge for a room.

Maintain your car

Your pickup is your lifeline. Find fuel, repair the engine, tend to the battery and replace the turbocharger to keep the journey going. You can tune cars with better engines and extra storage, and buy several different cars. Items placed in the trunk can fall out, so take care when loading them.

Game modes

Regular mode includes hunger, fatigue, body temperature and health. Simple mode removes the life bars for a more relaxed experience.
