![]() "Reached Canada's border on the first try- remained an average and mildly useful survivor to the end." *H*A*L*L* *O*F* *F*A*M*E*-ĮBONY: Pretty WogChamp, EzSnaps all the way down! Update 27: WHAT A BUNCHA WEIRDOS - RUN 2 RECAP UPDATE 18: The Tale of Swolda: The Jong of Flavorville UPDATE 16: LOOKING BACK, ON THE DEATH ROAD: RUN 1 I didn't come up with this idea in time okayĬharacter Creation: Choose UR Fighter, Second Edition by Barry Buybacks We'll eventually hit a point where I might just end up lifting this No Spoilers policy, but that'll be a long while from now. The best part of this game is when you have no idea what kind of crazy stuff will show up next, so don't spoil that for others. ![]() I've played this game enough to know the best responses to a majority of the events, so to mix it up for myself I'll be giving control of the early runs to the whims of the thread.Įven though I know this game very well, don't be a dink and spoil anything we haven't seen yet. Plenty of characters to be made, and tons of choices to make. It's also just something I can do short updates of and I've really not got much else going on for me right now. So this is an LP probably spanning from me doing a new file at 0% to unlocking and trying to beat the hardest game mode. Released in 2016 but still being updated, I never completely finished all of this game's difficulty options. As you can tell, it's a very serious game. Run around, smash stuff, get loot, and run into all sorts of things as the world devolves into a comedy pastiche of itself. Or at least the dozen of us that are left.Death Road to Canada is a roguelike/Oregon Trail sort of game life simulation RPG about a car full of weirdos escaping to Canada in the face of a ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE. A definite buy for split screen and shared screen gamers. It is tough but the addition of co-op means it’s never dull and always a laugh. Overall, for the price I have no qualms with Death Road to Canada. The thing that ties it all together is that it’s funny – whether that be banter between the group or a certain character trait leading to an hilarious outcome in a random encounter on the road. And the soundtrack is great, switching between heavy beats or some genuinely relaxing melodies. The game is also gorgeous, with the cartoony art and gore giving it it’s own style. Do you slow down? Or speed up and do a sick jump? It might lead to arguments when the car is destroyed, but it’s a less lonely apocalypse. And true, the AI companion is far more capable than me, but mowing through zombies as a pair is twice the fun. On the plus side, to help you with these difficulties, the game offers shared screen vouch co-op! Truthfully, this was the selling point for me. It makes the brawls against the undead a very tense thing, and every room needs a certain amount of planning. So when you’re mashing the button to hit, make sure to watch your character’s face and see how red he/she is getting. There’s a myriad of cool melee weapons and a range of guns, and you can pick up objects to throw. The game has a surprisingly detailed combat system (in comparison to Organ Trail at the very least). Meaning that even if you take the best character types, conserve gas, collect enough food, and stock up on bullets – the gang might still get robbed by bandits or fall in a puddle. And do you scrounge the zombie infested town for the last slither or gas? Or risk breaking down in a worse spot further on? As well as these things to consider, the game is randomised. You have vital supplies like food and gasoline, but these can also be traded. There’s also an element of item management to consider. It takes a few attempts to learn which skills do which, and which characters to take. So because of this, you’re very unlikely to get to Canada first time. So for example, having a character with a good mechanical skill will help if (more like when) the car breaks down. These effect the character’s many stats and the choices you have in certain situations. ![]() You can create your own character with a number of personality traits. But this is a little more in-depth than that in a few ways. ![]() If you’ve played Organ Trail, then you have a reasonably good idea what to expect – in a general sense. It sees you controlling a group of eclectic characters as they make their way from Florida to the safe haven of Canada, in the midst of a zombie apocalypse. Death Road to Canada describes itself as a ‘ Randomly Generated Road Trip Action-RPG’ which sums it up pretty well, actually.
