The Last Gas Station Playtest is Open for Business!
There is more than meets the eye to running this cozy gas station. Fuel up and join the playtest today!
[Delaware, United States - January 30th, 2026] — The Last Gas Station, the upcoming cozy-yet-mysterious gas station simulator developed by Alawar, is launching its first playtest today! After previous ownership disappeared, you've suddenly found yourself as the new manager of a gas station and quaint convenience store. It's your job to transform this lonely, defunct gas station into a roadside wonder. One important note: the previous owner disappeared under mysterious circumstances. Might be worth keeping in mind as you open up shop.
In The Last Gas Station, electric vehicles have rendered gas stations almost obsolete, and turned gas itself into a relic lost to time. It's your job to manage and grow this old gas station and cozy store into a thriving business for weary travellers who haven't left gas behind just yet. Manage your gas station by stocking shelves with new goodies for hungry travellers, maintain the gas pumps, and customize the interiors and exteriors to truly make it your own. However, when night falls upon your unassuming gas station, something more sinister awakens in the wilderness. Seriously, don't go outside.
Key Features:
-
Modernize & Expand – Rip out outdated pumps, install car maintenance services like tire inflation and oil changes, and upgrade facilities to build a fully functional roadside business.
-
Set Up Shop – Stock your shelves with snacks, car supplies, and road trip essentials. Optimize layout, improve decor, and manage pricing to turn a profit.
-
Trade & Serve – Buy and restock goods, run the checkout, and keep your customers happy if a bit uneasy.
-
Survive the Night – Lock the doors and turn off the lights. Strange things happen out here after sunset... and some of them remember you.
-
Customize Everything – Design your neon signs, decorate the store, and bring new life to your forgotten little corner of the animal world.
The Last Gas Station is a narrative-driven gas station simulator with vibrant pixel graphics and vibes that quickly shift from cozy to creepy with the drop of a hat. At its core, it's a game about concepts rendered obsolete due to time and innovation and the effort it takes to keep something alive in a world that's already moved on.
