Jalopy puts you in the driver’s seat of a junker embarking on a road trip across the Eastern Bloc in 1990. You must balance your money and make you Laika 601 Deluxe complete the journey in one piece. You will have to replace tires, fix the engine block, and refuel on multiple occasions. None of this is free, so make sure to balance your money accordingly.

Build, repair, refuel and drive a dilapidated old car that is going on a journey. Miles of tire changing, fuel burning, mud clattering terrain stands between you and your destination. It is you against the procedurally generated world of Jalopy, and only if you play it smart can you make it to the end of your journey.

You must make important decisions among your travels. You can scavenge for scraps to make a small return on your car investment, or smuggle contraband under the eyes of border patrols to make a massive profit. The open world is yours to claim, and how you make money is completely within your well-oiled hands.

Road conditions have an impact on your car’s condition. Steer clear of any collisions and potholes or risk extra unnecessary expenses.  Rain, Snow, Sleet or Hail none will stop your Jalopy on its epic trail. Keep it fueled up and tuned up throughout your travels to make it through even the worse conditions.

As you travel through varying countries, you will slowly find that your trip will become more interesting. Something that may be worthless in Germany can suddenly be expensive in India, you never know until you get there.

Keep an eye out for special stores throughout the game. Each provides special chances to sell items you find along with exclusive upgrades depending on your location. This is the rise of capitalism and the power of a good investment.

Make sure you know your car parts before departing on this journey. The Engine Block is the core of your machine and defines its speed and performance. Carburettor is used to control fuel consumption and help keep your miles per gallons at higher numbers. The Ignition coil must be kept in good condition to make sure the engine starts. The Fuel Tank will keep your oil and fuel separate and allow the engine to be properly lubricated. These is only some of the important parts you must understand to keep your car running.

Jalopy can be purchased on Steam and now Xbox One. As this game joins other platforms, you quickly can make the epic journey of a junker’s lifetime.
