FARLANDS

Take an old pickup wherever the road goes, and then past where it stops. Nothing is timed and nothing can go wrong.

Drive anywhereRoads, farm tracks, dunes, marsh and snow. If you can see it, you can try to get there.
Carry a parcelPull up beside anyone with a ! over their head. They have something for a friend in another village.
Find what is out thereDozens of places to come across: a waterfall, an ice cave, a wreck on a sandbar.

How to play

There is no wrong way to do this

Driving

WASD: or the arrow keys
Space: handbrake
Shift: cruise: hold this speed (brake to let go)
R: stuck or upside down: back on your wheels
L: headlights
Q: scenic drive: the truck drives itself until you touch the controls

Looking

Drag: look around, wheel to zoom
C: camera: behind, far, driver's seat
H: hide everything but the view
F: full screen
T: skip three hours

Finding your way

M: the map fills in as you drive
J: journal: found, heard about, delivered
Click the map: mark a destination; discovered places also offer fast travel
E / Enter: say yes to a parcel
Esc: menu and settings

Gamepad

Stick, RT, LT: steer, drive, brake
A / B: accept / handbrake
Y, Back, Start: camera, map, menu
Any button: wakes the pad up

Parcels: stop beside someone with a yellow !. A green beam marks who it is for, and the compass points the way.
Places: the people you help will tell you about sights worth seeing. They show as a ? on the map.
Fuel: a tank lasts a long while. Pull in at the pumps in any village and stop. If you run dry, someone tows you there.
Vehicles: a dozen others stand parked about the island, each good on different ground. Stop beside one and press E or the button to take it. Yours waits where you left it.
Ferry: at West Harbor or South Port, drive along the pier, aboard, and park on the deck. It sails once you have settled. E or the button skips ahead.
Soft ground: mud, sand and deep snow slow you down, and a heavy parcel more so. Tracks are easier than open country.
