Drylands is a grim post-apocalyptic RPG in which everyone is gasping for some juice

You'd be wrong if you thought the title of Drylands was referring only to its arid wastelands. It doubles up as a nod to this post-apocalyptic world's reliance on... wait for it... juice.

Yes, there's none of Mad Max's and Waterworld's battles over petroleum. No, in Drylands it's all about the nectar of fruit and veg, it would seem.

Is it orange juice? Red berry juice? Pomegranate juice? Carrot juice? This is a mystery that you can only solve by playing Drylands.

I'm ribbing the game a bit, sure, but it's quite serious about juice being the only nutrient in the world. But it seems that whatever this valuable resource is, ultimately, it doesn't matter.

What does matter is that it's causing people to fight. And in this desperate world that makes for a lot of nasty situations.

It's an RPG like most others, but distinctly dark grey in appearance, filled with trailer trash and industrial misery.

As well as fighting brutes (inside and outside of the arena), you can join factions, hack security tech, be a bounty hunter, and collect loads of procedurally generated weapons.

If any of this has appeal to you (and it seems there's a lot to get stuck into) then you might want to dive and purchase Drylands for £2.29 / $2.99 on the App Store.

I, on the other hand, am going to my fridge to drink a tall glass of orange juice. Mmmm.
