MAJOR UPDATE
Meet the Сompanions!
Upgrade your team and take on new missions. The global release is open to survivors worldwide!
Dead Ahead: Roadside
Idle Roguelike RPG Adventure
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
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?
Events
- Added Hero Stash II, the second stage of the Hero Stash. It opens once you've bought the Hero Stash and claimed all its rewards. It has 15 new tiers from hero Lv.1400 to Lv.2790, with 100 Greens per tier on the free track and 11,000 to 25,000 Greens per tier on the paid track.
- Added Office Tower Stash II, the second stage of the Office Tower Stash. It opens once you've bought the Office Tower Stash and claimed all its rewards. It has 10 new tiers from floor 55-10 to floor 100-10, with 1 Legendary key per tier on the free track and 10 Legendary keys per tier on the paid track.
- When you claim the last reward of a stash that has a next stage, a message lets you know you found it, and the stash screen switches to the new stage by itself.
- The not-enough Pills and DNA popups now have an AFK Rewards row. It shows what's already waiting for you and what's still coming (and when), and its button takes you straight to AFK Rewards on the Travel screen.
- If upgrade prices have gone up since you upgraded an item, resetting it now asks you to confirm first. The message shows how much you get back and how much it would now cost to upgrade the item again.
- Rage attacks come faster: once the rage bar is full, the pause before the Rage attack is 5 times shorter. This goes for heroes and enemies that build up rage.
- Melee Rage attacks have a different swing animation, and the hit lands in time with it.
- Once every enemy in a fight is dead, your party stops taking damage, so leftover damage-over-time effects or attacks already on their way can't turn a win into a loss.
- After you get back the companion the Marauders took early in the game, Marauders holding another companion can now show up in that same chapter. Before, they only showed up from the next chapter on.
- The Free Hugs encounter no longer offers Super Life next to Angel Blessing, so picking between them is a real choice.
- Clearing the final (10th) floor of a tower no longer gives a bonus of 10 Office Tower Tickets.
- In the Office Tower, enemies can no longer be knocked off the right edge of the screen, and enemies that don't walk, like the ram, no longer get stuck out of view.
- If an Office Tower or Lair floor fails to load before its fight starts, it now ends with no result instead of counting as a loss. You get your Office Tower Ticket back and can try the floor again.
- The game no longer gets stuck on the loading screen when game texts download slowly or the store is slow to respond.
- Fixed purchases failing after the connection to the store dropped.
- Fixed a failed Game Center sign-in at launch sometimes starting a fresh profile instead of loading your linked account.
- Your screen no longer turns off by itself mid-battle while you watch auto-fights.
- Fixed minor bugs, sounds and visuals, and improved performance and memory use, especially in battles.
