Our take on BadLands RoadTrip
Rather than treating weapons as fixed equipment, this RPG makes firearm construction part of the central play loop. Its open world also allows players to pursue quests or spend time testing gun configurations, replacing a strictly objective-driven structure with experimentation.
What is BadLands RoadTrip?
BadLands RoadTrip combines physics-based shooting with an open-world RPG set during a robot apocalypse.
Players travel across a non-linear world, visit towns, receive quests, and follow clues about the person who triggered the singularity. Weapons are assembled from selectable handles, mechanisms, barrels, and projectiles. Projectile options can include added weight, rocket fuel, or explosives, allowing different gun configurations. The game supports solo play and LAN multiplayer for its story and quests. Players can also spend time experimenting with weapon setups instead of pursuing objectives. The game includes an original soundtrack by Storytime Symphony.
