My Summer Car

My Summer Car is a car-building and life-survival simulator set in the Finnish countryside during the 1990s. You assemble a car and its engine from hundreds of loose parts, then maintain both the vehicle and yourself. Food, beer and sleep help you get by.

Build and maintain your car

The car has over 100 parts, and the game simulates driving and engine operation in detail. You can order parts by mail to tune and upgrade it, restore it to factory condition, or turn it into a bass-heavy disco car or a rally car. The car must pass inspection or you may get into trouble with the police.

Life in the countryside

Once the car is working, you can use it for summer activities around the countryside. You earn extra money from random jobs to cover food, drink and fuel expenses. The game also includes sauna bathing and permanent death.

Vehicles and roads

You can drive several other cars and vehicles, as well as a boat. These are useful for getting groceries or towing the project car out of a ditch. The countryside has dozens of kilometers of dirt and paved roads with AI traffic, and you can take part in rally events.
