Eighty-nine seconds
of Bengaluru

Gulmohar evenings, a water tanker with opinions, and a chase past Silk Board. Every frame is the game itself. Sound on.

Chapter 1:
Delivery Boy

You are Arjun. New in Koramangala with one bag, an old scooter and a PG that wants ten months' deposit.

  1. Ride the orders

    Twelve missions: eight story jobs and four side stories, from a wrong biryani order to a meter fight at the auto stand. Between them, deliveries. Rain pays 25% extra.

  2. Then just live there

    Free roam is the whole neighbourhood. Walk the santhe, stop for filter coffee, pet the street dogs, bat in a gully cricket match, buy a ₹199 T-shirt off a cart.

  3. Anything with wheels

    Eighteen kinds of vehicle, and you can drive every one: scooters, autos, a water tanker, the city bus, taxis, an ambulance, a fire engine. Horn included. Horn compulsory.

  4. Make a scene

    The wanted meter is called the Scene: Whistle, Challan, Nakabandi, Breaking News, Full Scene. You fight with what the street has: a chappal, a tender coconut, a plastic chair. No guns.

  5. Odd jobs, real money

    Get into an ambulance, a fire engine, a police car or a taxi and press T: paramedic, firefighter, vigilante and cab runs. Every level pays more. Hurt? A first-aid kit, or a filter coffee.

  6. Keep the good bits

    Press O and the street freezes for photo mode. Press B and your last 15 seconds become a video, ready for the family group.
