SKKSR is triumphant minimalist Stalinist Line Rider clone for great glory of the Soviet Motherland!
Without need for decadent Western imperialist game tropes like Cardinals, dungeons or a crisis, the victorious CCCP presents another triumph of game design. Though not well known, Soviet games were like Perestroika queues -- four blocks, and you liked it!
Here an industrious mining cart trundles ever on, providing resources from the boundless expanses of the Soviet Union to the deserving international brotherhood of proletarian workers. But what is this?! Saboteurs, running dog lackeys of the international capitalist conspiracy no doubt, have eliminated the cart's rail lines, without which it will tumble down to the end of history. The player uses the mouse to lay down new rails beneath and directly in front of the cart as it moves heroically along. Laying rails costs resource units (which we shall refer to henceforth as "rubles"), and costs more the taller and longer the segment is. Ruble expenditure can be minimised by laying only partial rail segments prompting the cart to leap boldly into the air! Also, additional rubles can be collectivized by directing the cart to intercept the glorious icon of the hammer and sickle.
Until the inevitable global Communist revolution happens and the worker's paradise is established, the only goal in this game is to keep the cart in movement for as long as possible. Enjoy much socialist gaming, but do not forget the dogmatic Imperialist axiom: In Soviet Russia, game plays you!
