Overlander is an arcade game developed and published by Elite Systems Ltd in 1988. The game is set in a post-apocalyptic world where the Earth's ozone layer has been destroyed, causing the planet to become dry and scorched. In this desolate landscape, underground cities have evolved, connected only by the old network of surface freeways. The player takes on the role of an Overlander, a specialized driver who transports cargo across the dangerous surface. The objective of the game is to choose a cargo to transport and successfully deliver it to the next city while facing challenges from anarchic gangs of outcasts known as surface dwellers. The player must also manage fuel and weapons to ensure a successful journey.
