Road Trip Adventure, also known as Road Trip or Choro Q HG 2, is a video game for the PlayStation 2 developed by E-game (but commonly credited to Takara). The game was released in 2002 in Japan by Takara and in North America by Conspiracy Entertainment, and 2003 in Europe and other PAL regions by Play It.
The game combines elements from racing and adventure games, and is widely considered to be the best of the Choro Q series due to its large seamless world which the player can freely explore. The game takes place in a world where there are only cars.
Story
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/8/8d/Road_Trip_Adventure.jpg/220px-Road_Trip_Adventure.jpg)
When you start a new game in Adventure Mode, after you choose your name and currency a scene appears where the President says that he will organize a World Grand Prix, where the winner would become President himself. After that you are transported to a Q's Factory (place where you change everything in your car from wheels to engines). This Q's Factory is located in Peach Town, a gentle classic-styled city. The main goals of the game are to become President and to get all the stamps. Stamps are won by doing other cars favours such as deliveries or simply by visiting houses and also by achieving goals in mini-games. A secondary goal is completing your picture album. To take pictures you have to visit a Quick-Pic Shop appearing on the map with a black mark. After you take the picture, the owner (always a pink Toyota Vitz) will tell you where the next shop is located. Another goal is completing "My City", your own city. To complete it, you must talk to many different cars in all the towns and sometimes they will ask you if you know somewhere to start a new life or to build their shops. After the city completed, you should have besides regular houses a school, a Fire Department, a police station and the group of 4 factories (composed by a Q's Factory, a Body Shop, a Parts Shop and a Paint Shop), among others. To get into the World Grand Prix, you must have two teammates. To acquire teammates, simply talk to other cars and if they are recruitable they may ask you to consider allowing them to join your team. However, you must be a quality racer to gain respect and a fan club in order to gain teammates. Of course your teammates' qualities depend also of the parts you give them.
Gameplay
Economy
At the start of the game, you are asked to specify a name for the currency used in the game. Money is a large factor in Road Trip Adventure. It is used to trade parts and deposit in banks, and to advertise. To win money, you can race, sell parts and advertise. There are five shops where you can advertise, the coffee shop in Peach Town (10 of your currency per km), a noodle restaurant in Fuji City (20 of your currency per km), a cake shop in Sandpolis (30 of your currency per km), a wool shop in White Mountain (40 of your currency per km) and a coconut shop in Papaya Island (50 of your currency per km). Each shop gives you some money for each kilometer you drive with their respective advertisement. You can also put one sign on each of your teammates.
