Read the six destinations as different settings rather than as coordinates on a map. Vice City emphasizes neighborhoods and everyday commerce; the Keys emphasize island life; Grassrivers emphasizes wetlands. Port Gellhorn’s faded tourism, Ambrosia’s industrial economy and Mount Kalaga’s national park give the wider state distinct points of comparison.
