Silent Roads

What lurks beyond the forgotten highways?

You are left alone and defenceless in a dark and dreary rural area when your automobile breaks down, forcing you to explore abandoned roads and abandoned landmarks. You must use your cunning to live as a creature known only as the Country Road Creature hunts through the darkness, getting closer the longer you wait.
