The travel sections of the game are very bare bones in terms of actual gameplay. I should mention that when party members die, they’re gone for the rest of the playthrough. The results of these choices could either be nothing at all, changes in the group’s morale, the gain or loss of resources or even the death of party members. However, the game will often offer you silly and surreal situations, complete with colorfully flashing words in all caps for emphasis and plenty of exclamation points. This may be as simple as which option is best to find supplies or whether the place your group picked to camp in is safe. Periodically, you will be given a random event in which you must choose from a list of options that’ll dictate how you want to proceed. During travel, you will ride in your car (or walk) as a text feed updates you on what your characters are doing and how your resources are being utilized. Seemingly inspired by the timeless classic Oregon Trail, Death Road to Canada’s main gameplay loop consists of two sections, travel and scavenging. In this roguelike, top-down, twin stick shooter with RPG elements, you must collect resources, fight zombies, and navigate through a gauntlet of random events that range from funny to fatal. Brought to us by Rocket Cat Games and Madgarden, you hop in a car by yourself, with a computer partner, or a friend and take a challenging and comical road trip across the United States. A welcome change from the expected tropes, it takes the tired bleakness of the zombie apocalypse and makes you laugh at it. Thankfully, Death Road to Canada offers a fresh alternative. Dark themes, gritty environments and dramatic stories are great, but when they permeate an entire genre where the only variance is whether or not the zombies shamble or sprint, they’ve become tired. Zombie games have certainly earned themselves a reputation.
