Details

Overview

CRASH: Autodrive plunges players into a near-future metropolis where autonomous Autocabs have replaced human drivers. The narrative adventure begins on what seems like an ordinary day, as four strangers share an Autocab. Their journey takes a sudden, dangerous turn when the vehicle inexplicably strikes a cyclist. Upon exiting the vehicle, the passengers discover a shocking truth: they all knew the victim and, more disturbingly, each of them possesses a motive for murder. Even the Autocab's artificial intelligence is implicated.

Players step into the shoes of Emily, a young woman navigating the complexities of big city life after moving from a small town. The core gameplay revolves around unraveling this intricate mystery.

You'll interact with the other passengers and the car's AI, meticulously searching for clues, solving puzzles, and using the evidence gathered to expose lies, unlock new dialogue options, and piece together the events leading to the fatal accident.
