Jalopy

Jalopy is a driving-and-maintenance game built around keeping an old car alive on a road trip. By our assessment, the real hook is not speed but routine: checking parts, managing fuel, and dealing with the little failures that make an unreliable vehicle feel like a problem instead of a prop. That gives it a distinctive texture, almost halfway between road game and mechanical chores, and it will appeal more to patience than to racing instincts. The honest downside is that the same slow upkeep can become the whole experience, so anyone wanting clean driving thrills may bounce off it. Compared with polished racers, it is rougher, smaller, and more interested in breakdowns than in finish lines.
