Roadside Research Free Download (v0.1.88)
Game Overview
Aliens have landed on Earth with an unusual mission: to run a gas station. In Roadside Research, you can play solo or team up with up to four players to perform everyday human tasks and blend seamlessly into society. Your responsibilities include keeping the shelves stocked with the right items, refueling customers, and providing food for travelers. While managing these duties during the day, your primary objective is to conduct secret research by gathering data from unsuspecting humans. Use scanning, stealth, and experimentation to collect valuable information without raising suspicion. If the “suspicion meter” climbs too high, government officials will pay an unwelcome visit, jeopardizing your mission. Balancing your alien agenda with the demands of running a gas station is key to success. Restock shelves, order new goods, and serve customers efficiently to keep the business thriving. At night, take time to strategize and plan your next moves. Customize and upgrade both your gas station and alien technology to attract more visitors and enhance your data-gathering capabilities. Maintain your disguise by adopting a convincingly human appearance, blending in perfectly with the locals. Whether you are cleaning, cooking, or managing resources, every decision impacts your ability to stay undetected and complete your mission. Roadside Research offers a unique blend of simulation and stealth with chaotic solo or cooperative gameplay that challenges you to master both human and alien worlds.
