Independent developer Alawar have released a new demo for The Last Gas Station, a narrative-heavy simulator where you play as a red panda taking over an near-obsolete gas station. The demo arrives ahead of the game’s participation in the Steam Next Fest, happening from February 23rd to March 2nd.
You play as the new owner of an old gas station and a cozy little store next to it, as the previous owner disappeared under mysterious circumstances. Clear out the trash, organize the space, set up trade, order goods, set prices, work the cash register and monitor the fuel levels. But no matter what happens, do not go out at night – unless you want to share the fate of the previous owner.
Gameplay Features
- Customize Everything: Design your neon signs, decorate the store, and bring new life to your forgotten little corner of the animal world.
- Modernize & Expand: Rip out outdated pumps, install car maintenance services like tire inflation and oil changes, and upgrade facilities to build a fully functional roadside business.
- Set Up Shop: Stock your shelves with snacks, car supplies, and road trip essentials. Optimize layout, improve decor, and manage pricing to turn a profit.
- Trade & Serve: Buy and restock goods, run the checkout, and keep your customers happy, if a bit uneasy.
- Night Mysteries: Strange things happen out here after sunset. You can follow the whispers and investigate, or turn off the lights and let the night pass, as if nothing’s happening.
