How close does the game get to the real place?
In the game
A large, murky salt lake in the middle of Blaine County, ringed by run-down settlements.
The real place
The Salton Sea formed by accident in 1905, when the Colorado River broke into a desert basin. It is now shrinking, salty and polluted, and the game keeps its dead fish and trash-strewn shore.
Visiting
Summer temperatures often pass 40C and the shore can smell strongly. Go between November and April, and take water.
