D.A. Roadside Zombies

One of the best idle zombie rogue like games out at the moment. Simple but effective gameplay with a good range of weapons & skills.

Overall Review

I’ve played hundreds of idle and mobile games, and I can confidently say that this game is much better than most other idle games out there. One thing I really appreciate is that it doesn’t constantly hit you with random ads in the middle of gameplay. The ads are completely optional, and they always offer worthwhile rewards if you decide to watch them.

The gameplay loop can become a little repetitive at times, but I’m only mentioning this because I genuinely want to see the game improve. I would love to see more roadside events, more NPCs to encounter, and a wider variety of skills.

Right now, the skill options feel a little limited, with only a few main types such as fire, electricity, and poison. It would be amazing to have more variety and interesting combinations to make each run feel different.

The microtransactions are also optional, which is great. You don’t feel forced to spend money, and it’s possible to progress easily by making good choices and picking the right skills.

The gacha aspect could also use a little more excitement and a wider selection of weapons. During my first few days of playing, I only managed to get around two different weapons, so having more weapon variety and exciting rewards would definitely improve the experience.

Overall, this game has a lot of potential, and I’m genuinely rooting for it. The foundation is already really good, and with more content, events, skills, NPCs, and weapon variety, I can see it becoming one of the best idle games out there.

Hey Belta! 🌟 We’re thrilled to hear you can't stop playing Dead Ahead: Roadside! That’s awesome! What’s been your favorite part of the zombie apocalypse adventure so far? Keep enjoying the ride! 🚗💨

Cash grab game of the series

Gameplay loop is boring. So many microtransactions feels like a Chinese gacha game sometimes. They are trying to go for the "rogue like" gameplay when you choose skills but I've already seen all the skills and none of them are exciting. The fun in the dead ahead world is the characters and we just get a default human.

Cannot recommend this game its a cash grab

Response from developer

Hey there! We appreciate your feedback, and we’re sorry to hear that you feel this way. We understand that the gameplay loop and microtransactions can be frustrating. As an idle roguelike game, Roadside doesn't actually require any IAPs - the whole point is to progress gradually. But stay tuned - we will add more events and introduce companions!

great game just needs more.

didn’t have any issues with the gameplay loop and enjoyed it.
but it would be better if you could have more types of guns and maybe being able to replay older stages with a higher difficulty and better rewards

Response from developer

Hey there! 😊 We're so glad to hear you enjoyed the gameplay loop! Your suggestion for more types of guns and the option to replay older stages with higher difficulty and better rewards is awesome. We’re constantly working on improving the game, so stay tuned for new features! Happy gaming! 🎮

Love the world

This game is brilliant to pass the time I’ve had already so much fun with it and also moving through the levels and seeing what it can do. I cannot wait for more expansions and updates coming ahead.

Response from developer

Hey there! 😊 It's awesome to hear that you're loving the world we've created and having fun exploring all the levels. We're super excited about more expansions and updates too! Thanks for your support, and happy gaming in the meantime! 🚀

Quick and easy fun

Compared to dead ahead warfare you don’t need to grind omega hard to get any enjoyment out of the game past the 2nd or 3rd chapter :)

Response from developer

We aimed to create a more accessible experience compared to other zombie games, so it's great to see that resonating with players.

No forced ads

It’s a good game so far I feel like it could get boring maybe we need story lines and more options

Bugs

Played and upgrade the armor to +2 reset to get the upgrade material. Lost all of my upgrade and wasted 3 purple item.

Response from developer

Hi there, we're sorry to hear about the issues you're facing with the upgrades! We recommend reaching out to our in-game support team so they can assist you with this - it's a common misunderstanding about the system among our players.

Needs some more content

I really enjoy the game but there’s currently not even content for this game to even last a week while being interesting. You see pretty much all there is to offer in the first hour then it’s just rinse and repeat. But I get it needs time so I’ll be patient for a bit.

Response from developer

Hey there! 😊 Thanks for sharing your thoughts. We're glad to hear you're enjoying the game, but we totally understand the need for more content. We're actively working on new events, enemies, and locations to enhance the experience. Your patience means a lot to us as we continue to develop this idle RPG adventure! Stay tuned!

Nothing new

Very similar to capybarago

Response from developer

Hey there! We appreciate your feedback. Dead Ahead: Roadside is designed as a more casual roguelike autobattler, and is indeed inspired by games like Capybara Go. We're still in active development and are working on introducing new events, enemies, and mechanics to keep things fresh. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

Not bad

But the game needs a auto play button. It gets tiring trying to spam the same button

Response from developer

Hey there! Thanks for the feedback! We totally get how spamming the button can feel a bit tiring. An auto-play feature would definitely help make those runs smoother! 🕹️ We're keeping it in mind as we continue developing and adding new features. Happy gaming!

A great time killer

Just a really enjoyable simple rogue like

Response from developer

Hey there! 😊 Thanks so much for the awesome review! We're thrilled to hear that you're enjoying our roguelike game and finding it to be a great time killer. Stay tuned for more fun adventures ahead as we continue to develop the game! Happy gaming! 🚀

Good game overall

Good game needs a story and should tie into the other games!

Response from developer

Hey there! We're really glad to hear you enjoy the game! 🎮 Your suggestion for a story and connections to our other games is super interesting, and we appreciate the feedback. We're always looking to improve and expand our universe, so stay tuned for updates! Enjoy the zombie apocalypse! 🧟‍♂️

Addictive

But the game is a clone from CapybaraGo! I like the art and concept but I wish they would do there own twist instead of copying another game down to same way they hide free money in there money store so you go look at it

Come from Zonewar

Pretty good game
