Chapter 2

The Morning After: the drive north to the scrapyard

The COE died at midnight and you slept in the car. Now drive the old girl back north to the Kranji scrapyard by noon, past otters with a police escort, PSI 400 haze, a runaway tank and the worst jam in the game.

Levels 15 to 21 One morning Boss: the Karang Guni King

Seven stops, from Tiong Bahru Market Run at 6:58 AM to Kranji Scrapyard Run at 11:50 AM: Tiong Bahru to the Kranji scrapyard.

You wake up in a car that no longer exists

It is 6:58 AM at Marina Bay, the certificate has expired, and the Kranji scrapyard closes at noon. Seven levels, the same island driven the other way, south to north. The chapter opens when you beat DEXTER at the end of Chapter 1, and clearing level 20 puts Uncle's Vintage Continental, waxed every Sunday since 1987, in your Garage.

7 AM: market lorries and a flight to catch

Tiong Bahru Market Run (level 15) is the wet market unloading at dawn, where every lorry uncle believes reversing lights are decorative and nobody checks a mirror before 8 AM. Brake early.

Changi Final Boarding (level 16): your cousin's flight boards at 8:45, the airport taxis are doing whatever they like, and then a luggage strap snaps and somebody's entire holiday cartwheels across lane two.

The otters, and the sky that left

Istana Otter Jam (level 17) stops Orchard Road for a family of otters crossing in single file, just as up to sixteen really did outside the Istana in 2022. They have right of way, police protection and two million followers. Hit one and it costs you 400 points and your entire reputation. Get through and the Orchard Road ice cream uncle's cart, sidecar freezer and rainbow umbrella, is yours in the Garage.

PSI 400: Hazepocalypse (level 18) is the worst visibility in the game, and Singapore's real record, 401, is not far off. Everyone has their hazard lights on, so hazard lights now mean nothing. An N95 pickup lets you see the road again, for a while.

Tanks and the crawl

SLE Mobile Column (level 19) fills the northbound lanes with real tanks from the National Day Parade mobile column: slow, magnificent and polite, except the one whose steering has developed a personality. The tagline, "Tank-ful no one hurt", is a real 2025 headline.

Do not race a tank, lah. Even if you win, you lose.

Causeway Crawl (level 20) is the densest level in the game, on purpose: the Causeway is one of the busiest land border crossings on earth, and today half the island wants cheap petrol. The cruel part: you are not even going to Malaysia. You need the Kranji exit, 400 metres and forty-five minutes away.

Kranji: the Karang Guni King

Kranji Scrapyard Run (level 21): the gate is in sight when a horn blares the karang guni song and a purple tow truck piled with dead TVs fills your mirror. The Karang Guni King has been collecting for forty years, and your car is next. He blocks the road like every boss: boost-ram him head on, or bait his swinging hook into the barriers.

Beat him and he admits the car has soul. His cousin's workshop across the Causeway gets a phone call, and Chapter 3, The JB Run, begins.
