Speed junkies now race through the abandoned wastelands, with scarce and valuable fuel as the ultimate prize. Fuel is set in an alternate reality, in which whole regions of the world have been ravaged by climate change.
Different vehicles have different strengths and weakness in different types of terrain. Players are free to explore the area as they wish, in one of the game's many two- or four-wheeled off-road vehicles. Rainier, Crater Lake, the Bonneville Salt Flats, and the Grand Canyon. The racing takes place on and off 100,000 miles of track, in a 5,000 square mile area that comprises deserts, forests, and a hodge-podge of natural landmarks of the western U.S., including Mt. Fuel is an off-road racing game of grand scale and open-ended attitude.
