A Randomly Generated Road Trip
Death Road to Canada is a road trip simulator where you manage a car full of jerks driving through a zombie apocalypse. Every run is randomly generated, so locations, events, survivor appearances, and personalities change each time. You explore cities, recruit strange people, rescue dogs, and argue with your own party. The world does not take itself too seriously, and the gore explosions are drawn in a cute style.
Fighting Swarms and Making Choices
You will face gigantic swarms of slow zombies, with up to 500 hunting you at once. You can fight them, try to squirm past, or run. Between fights, you hit Interactive Fiction events where tough choices come up. The options and results depend on the traits of your party members, so who you recruit matters. You can find rare events, weapons, and characters with strange abilities. Your characters can learn to throw chairs, and get strong enough to throw large sofas. One of the options is teaching a dog how to drive a car.
Playing With Friends
The game has 4 player local same screen co-op where you control up to 4 characters at once. Steam also supports Remote Play Together, so friends can join in over a connection. The character creator lets you put yourself, friends, and family into the game, where they show up at random during the run.
