How it feels

A slow, meditative drive through a lonely desert landscape, fixing things methodically while the day winds down.

What players say

Players describe it as a chill, contemplative trucking sim with excellent dialogue and queer robot romance. They praise the writing and emotional story but note the physics are janky and the controls have rough edges. Many call it criminally underrated.
