About the game
You deliver cargo for the Martians. Each contract gives you something to move, like a steel beam or a crate, and you build a rover to fit it. You snap together wheels, arms, motors and engines from parts you unlock with money. Then you drive over rough ground and try not to drop the load.
You can play alone or invite up to three Steam friends into your game, for four players in total. Everyone drives their own rover, and you can take contracts together or each on your own. As a team, one rover can lift while another props the load up, or each of you can haul a different piece.
A lot of the fun is watching a clever design tip over on the way. It suits friends who like to tinker and are happy with long drives. The game also works alone, so co-op is a choice.
