Crosslane: Outrun the Dust

Six regions to cross, six vehicles to earn, and a dust front that does not get tired.

The Dry is behind you. It has been for years.

You are a courier on the last open road, running deliveries between towns that are running out of time. Three lanes. Swipe to change lane, jump the wreckage, slide under the barriers. Do not look back — it is closer than you think.

SIX REGIONS, SIX VEHICLES It starts with a bicycle and a bag of post. Cross the wheatbelt and you earn a motorbike. Then a car, a four-wheel-drive, a racer, and finally something somebody built in a shed and never finished. Each one is faster than the last — and wider, and slower to change lanes. Speed is never free.

120 DELIVERIES Every run is a job for somebody: seed before sundown, vaccines with six hours of ice, water for a farm with no bore. Twenty stories per region, each with its own distance to beat.

RUN IT YOUR WAY Go back and run any region you have finished, on the vehicle it was built for. Or take Free Run: one road, every vehicle you have earned, no story to finish and nothing to do but beat your own number. Daily objectives reset every morning.

A ROAD THAT PLAYS FAIR The generator physically cannot produce a row you could not get through. Obstacle spacing scales with your speed, so the game gets harder by asking more of you, never by cheating. If you crashed, you can see why.

CLIMB THE BOARD Every run scores on distance plus what you collected along the way. There is a board for each region, a board for each vehicle, and one for everybody — and no board ever mixes two roads, so the name at the top of it earned that place on the same ground you did.
