The Hobo Way

It is not easy being a hobo. The world seems to be against you. People often avoid and despise you. Even the weather conspires to make you miserable. Everyone and everything demands money which you don’t have.

Hobos are usually peaceful because anything else will draw the attention and perhaps the wrath of the Man. Being inconspicuous and keeping your head down may avoid this. And yet there is more to life than mere survival. There is a spirit that longs to not just survive but to live and be free. A Hobo’s life is tough, but it need not always be a misery.

In this game you are a hobo trying to live in a tough world. Will you overcome the obstacles in your way? Will you survive? Will you thrive?
