Dead Ahead vs Shipmate

The legendary Dead Ahead universe is back! 10M+ players have already hit the road, but most ended up as zombie bait. Can you make it past the next mile? Key Features: - Chill & Savage The apocalypse at your own pace. Master the idle loop day by day with seamless controls: pick your perks, sit back and watch your hero carve through the horde. - Choice & Consequence Every day on the road brings a new decision. Risk it all for a rare reward or play it safe and move on? Your choices in random encounters shape every run. - Perks & Builds Unlock game-changing perks and craft a lethal build for every encounter. Experiment with synergies on the fly — every run is a new combination. - Roam & Ruin Each run takes you deeper into the ruined world. Push through wrecked cities, highways and swamps and adapt to shifting threats — no two runs are ever the same. - Friends & Firepower You don't have to face the apocalypse alone. Recruit fellow survivors who fight by your side with skills of their own. Level them up, unlock their perks and build the strongest crew. - Idle & Armed Collect your AFK rewards and gear up. Every return makes you stronger and better prepared for the road ahead. Will you make it with brains… or just bullets?

Shipmate: Pixel Seas is a landscape sailing adventure built around wind, exploration, trade and manual broadside combat. Every voyage creates a fresh sea. Read the wind, chart islands, dock at ports, take contracts and choose your battles. Strange waters hold named captains, a reef serpent, the Kraken and the Pale Sovereign. Track a goal from the journal or chart and follow sightings toward your next adventure. Bring your haul home to the harbour, collect your rewards and choose what to do next. Earn doubloons for ships and working fittings, build hull mastery and give your ship a new look. Explore the armoury, Hold, harbour games, chests, daily shop and season track. Season 1 begins on 7 December 2026, with a preseason before it. A voyage earns one free haul back after 40 leagues. Optional rewarded ads can also provide a revive or halve a chest timer once a day. Pearls do not buy revives or stronger ships. Existing captain's charter benefits are preserved. Sailing works offline and needs no account. Purchases, rewarded ads and Game Center require a connection. Optional purchases include pearls, a one-time Starter bundle and the captain's charter. Pearls buy cosmetic looks and the season pass; paid season rewards are looks. The Starter bundle contains Sea glass hull paint, a Signal pennant and 300 pearls. Earlier Starter bundle owners keep the items their purchase granted.
