How to play

The goal is to find the source of the mysterious signal. You’ll do this by driving your car to spots where you can make measurements. The meters at the corner of your screen will help you find the correct positions, while your phone will lock on to the signal and show you a handy map. There are three of these spots in total, allowing you to finally triangulate the exact spot where the signal originates and find out what’s going on in this desert.

Use the meter on the left to gauge signal clarity and to know where to go. It measures your distance to the closest measuring position and will be crucial in finding them. The screen on the right will even show you the correct direction when you get close enough.

When your signal is clear enough, you’ll see it indicated on your screen. Press [Space] to take out your phone and lock the signal down. You can then continue on to the next spot.

Once you have made all three measurements, your map will show you the final triangulated source of the mysterious signals.
