After he drops him off in Istanbul, he is never seen again. Both of the parents died before the Berlin Wall was torn down, and the mother’s last wish was for her husband’s ashes to be scattered across the Bosporus when they arrive in Istanbul (which is the reason why Uncle talked his nephew in on going on this seemingly random road trip). The uncle has been keeping in contact with the rest of the family, especially his mother, while he kept everything oblivious to him those 30 years. It turns out the player and the uncle have been separated from the rest of their family residing in West Berlin for almost 30 years because the Uncle was with him as a baby on the East Side the night the Berlin Wall was erected on August 12, 1961. The player can open his briefcase and collect notes that put together a backstory. When the uncle falls asleep in the hotel. The player may choose to upgrade the Laika if he has enough money. The cities he stops in all contain shops important to maintaining his car, and to sell objects found in discarded boxes strewn across the roads on his trip. The player passes through East Germany, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Yugoslavia, Bulgaria and Turkey on his trip with his uncle.
The main task of the game is to get to Istanbul to drop the Uncle off all the while maintaining the Laika (heavily based on the Trabant 601) which is prone to frequent breakdowns signified by smoke coming from the sides of the bonnet. The game follows the player character known only as Splat and his Uncle Lütfi, two Germans of Turkish descent from Eastern Berlin who have decided to go on a road trip to Istanbul since the Iron Curtain fell. The game follows two characters, the player and their uncle, who attempt to build a Laika (a car modelled after the Trabant 601) from individual parts and drive from East Berlin to Turkey using it. In late 2014, Greg began work on this new driving simulation featuring the fictional Laika 601 Deluxe car reminiscent of the East German “Trabbie”, it will need much love and care to keep it going on this memorable road trip! Jalopy is a simulation video game developed by English indie studio MinskWorks and published by Excalibur Games. Developer Greg Pryjmachuk worked on the Formula 1 franchise from 2009 through to 2014. Scavenge for scraps to make a small return of investment, or become a baron of the open road and smuggle contraband under the eyes of border patrols to make a sizable profit.
