The scene is laid out in modern times.
The place is somewhere close to a massive mountain. A network of roads,
connecting small towns covers the region. Each town has a depot that puts
in orders for goods, as they are consumed by the townsfolk. The cargo is
delivered by trucks.
The player is one of the long-haul truckers who runs about the region looking
for a gainful order and peddles wares from town to town. The profit depends on
the shortage of the merchandize delivered, so the quickest player makes the most.
As the game goes on, a successful driver can upgrade the truck or change
it to another one, and then is able to buy another (and another, etc.) truck
and even hire a bankrupted rival. The strategic goal of the game is to
monopolize the delivery business.
