The Long Drive

Set out on an open-ended road trip through a vast, randomly generated desert in a semi-post-apocalyptic world. Travel alone or with others, choosing your own route through the landscape.

Drive between roadside buildings and other points of interest, leaving the car to explore and search for useful supplies. Keep an eye on your character’s needs as well as the vehicle’s fuel, oil, and cooling water.

Maintain and modify vehicles by handling their parts directly, swapping components, and making do with what you find. There is no scripted route to follow; the journey centers on exploration, improvisation, and keeping a car moving.

Players who enjoy the game often praise its freeform desert road trips, hands-on car tinkering, and the unpredictable comedy that emerges from its physics and interactions. Some also describe it as a fun, relaxed way to spend time alone or with friends. Many supplied reviews temper that enjoyment with concerns about the game’s limited content, bugs, multiplayer problems, and long gaps in updates.
