Cozy open-world exploration game Outbound blends crafting and a road-trip adventure with a peaceful, environmentally focused survival setting. Dropped into a utopian world with diverse landscapes and relaxation, you gradually transform your minimalist van into a functioning mobile home.
Designed to encourage exploration, Outbound has many secrets and hidden gems to uncover with an array of collectibles to find on your journey. The colorful Gnomes span multiple biomes, and while some are easy to spot, others take a bit more time to discover in this relaxing 'home on wheels' game.
Outbound Gnome Location
There are 50 unique Gnomes to collect in the first two biomes of Outbound, each with its own special style and name — some of which come from the Kickstarter backers themselves.
