But as much as your car will defend you from danger, it's up to you to keep it in top shape by repairing it during trips with salvage you find on your travels.
While it doesn't have a cool voice like KITT from Knight Rider, it has just about everything you will need to survive the Olympic Exclusion zone. Your only defense against all these anomalies is your trusty station wagon. Numerous times I saw the spores either yank the car around like it was made of paper or rip the panels, doors, and other parts off the station wagon like a kid pulling apart their least favorite toys. While the more obvious hazards of the world were dangerous, these diabolical spores were there to make the drive more complicated. I saw pillars of earth rising out of the ground, thunderstorms sending shockwaves of lightning into the road, piles of radioactive waste, massive razor blades, and curious little creatures the team referred to as spores. As you progress, you’ll find shortcuts to help on future runs, so failing will feel more like a speed bump rather than a sinkhole.
Failing to find the anchor and reach your exit point before running out of gas or power or losing your car to damage will cost you resources and send you back to your garage.Įach run will be unique, as the anomalies that occur are randomized, and returning to a previously explored location too soon will see increased levels of chaos thrown at you. Each section will have you searching for a magical orb called an anchor that will allow you to warp back to your garage for a short respite before beginning the next area. Runs are split into different legs of a trip between checkpoints, where you must gather supplies to ensure your car can survive in the long run. The goal is to venture further into the world across five biomes, each filled with unique anomalies and challenges, in the hopes of discovering the mystery at the center. Pacific Drive’s anomaly-filled version of the Pacific Northwest will take you deep into what's referred to as the Olympic Exclusion zone, filled with all sorts of mysterious phenomena. I got to see the world, its dangers, and, most importantly, the station wagon. I sat in the passenger seat while Pacific Drive's developers took the wheel to show me what to expect from this quirky car game.
