Steam, Tracks, Trouble & Riddles (S.T.T.&R.) is a single player adventure mod, based on source engine (Orange Box) by Valve. It combines two types of game play: an adventure game with complex, 3D-interactive riddles in a fantastic environment and a simulator for track based vehicles.

Report RSS Major Update of Chapter One

You will find an new major update and renewed version of this mod in the download section. A lot of recommendations and suggestions coming from the community found their way into this new version. Bugs and inconveniences were removed. Hopefully there are no left. (This hope makes it a beta version*). Anyway we think it is worth to have a look on it. [Edit Dec. 7th 2015] *Due to the fact that no bug occured in the last months the downloadable version is not called "beta" anymore.

Hi everybody,

Update Time! Sorry, it took a while and we call it a beta version because there weren't a lot of playtesters avaiable. Anyway we believe that this update is worth playing and turns the old version into an obsolete status. (You may download them for if you are in a reminiscent mood).

The new Chapter One V2 is here:

S.T.T. & R. Chapter One V2 (beta)


A lot of recommendations and suggestions coming from the community found their way into this new version like the new control scheme of the crane in the beginning or the new gauges in the pipe riddle. We are really thankful for all the comments, reviews and votes here, on interlopers.net and on planetphillip.com.


Not only bug fixes but new riddle sections are waiting for you. One you will find in the first map and one in the last. Enjoy 15 new lines of dialog of EasyRider and Happy Jack recorded by Ross Scott. You can find some new Easter Eggs you can find if you are lucky. One was posted here in the video section some weeks ago.

Shunter Cockpit

The new Release Guide provides you with installation intructions and useful information about the control and the story background. A new Solution Guide (Spoiler Alert!) will be avaiable in the next days.

New Pipe Riddle

Next step (after the bug fix) will be Chapter Two of course. Again I beg some patience, because I intend to work with th new source2 engine. This tool is not yet in our hands (exept for the Dota2 world). But there will be some concept art from time to time. Maybe EasyRider has to say something. We will record that for you. Suggestions from you are welcome everytime.

Looking forward to your comments we wish you fun
with Steam, Tracks, Trouble & Riddles Chapter One V2.
