ARES 2192 is a sci-fi adventure driving game set on the forbidden frontier of a newly terraformed Mars. Guided by a personal adaptive AI, players compete in illegal, high-stakes races—blasting through colossal megastructures, exotic alien terrains, and violent, unpredictable weather systems. As the story unfolds, the races evolve into dangerous missions, and a vast conspiracy looms over the future of humanity.
Heavily modified industrial vehicles abandoned and reclaimed as “legal salvage”.
No one really know how the Race began, rumours of a couple of daring illegal tourists found the disabled vehicles after the great solar storm of 2157 that cripple much of the infrastructure on the surface of Mars and its many habitats in orbit.
Many new vehicles have been recruited to the Race, heavily modified and driven by dare devils who remain incognito.
Hydro/Solar Power Plant Installation – South polar region – summer.
This solar/hydro power installation has been running uninterrupted for 124 years. It uses its vast array of solar panels (great to drive on) to heat up ice into water and and into hydro power.
It produces vast amounts of energy that is beamed via quantum laser to other installation and to energy catcher space station in orbit.
The Tropics Belt – Coastline – Equatorial Mars specially has developed a warmer and wetter weather than it can be explained. One minute can look like a tropical paradise but in a matter of minutes savage storms appear from no-where. They render the coast line unrecognizable each time they hit.
Lava Caves – There are lava caves everywhere in Mars. Used by the first Mars scientific posts and then settlers, these vast network of facilities, energy extraction machines, tunnels and mining zones were the crucial Mars foothold. These massive network infrastructure are now ghost towns, they were all abandoned in 2146, there has been much speculation why such a massive investment would be abandon so suddenly. Maybe something was nexpectedly discovered?
Shallow Waters – Racing on frozen lakes seems like fun, but not when they thaw unexpectedly helped by a meteors shower!
Quick change of course may save you from being buried alive on ice, keep your never and keep improvising….
a real test for your ride’s resilience.
