Death Roads: Tournament

About this game

Prepare for a high-octane showdown in "Death Roads: Tournament," where vehicular combat, strategic card-play, and turn-based thrills collide. Dive headfirst into a frenzied competition where your destiny hangs in the balance. To secure the ultimate prize, you must annihilate all opposition in your path. There's no room for failure – it's victory or a fresh start!


Before unleashing mayhem, handpick your driver and their mean machine, armed with an initial set of cards. Then, select a sponsor who will determine your starting point on the game map – choose wisely because there's no turning back.


The cards aren't just for blasting your rivals – use them to outmaneuver obstacles, secure superior positions, or simply crash head-on into your opponents for maximum impact.




Remember to shift gears while on the road – higher gears mean access to more powerful cards, but with greater risk during skids. Master this mechanic and skid your way to triumph.


Gather car parts from fallen foes and pimp your vehicle with various weapons, engines, and wheels. Experiment with different configurations to take your rivals by surprise and build formidable card combinations.




Every skirmish brings you closer to victory, but beware – "Death Roads" is a race where defeat lurks around every corner. If you falter, be prepared to restart your journey. Don't fret, though, as your hard-earned unlocks remain in your arsenal!

• Master turn-based battles with road events.
  
• Unlock various cars and characters with special weapons.
  
• Build card decks based on swapping around car parts.
  
• Progress across a nonlinear world map.
  
• Vibe with Mad Max-style graphics reflecting a thrilling race

  Have you seen Furiosa: The Mad Max Saga?

  Hello Drivers! What a lovely day! Long time no see! We’d like to stop here because we noticed an exciting movie title currently ruling the cinema. Do you know what we mean? It is one of the two biggest inspirations for Death Roads games. And, of course, we are talking about Mad Max. Have you seen the new Furiosa yet? Is it good? The Polish premiere occurred last Friday, so we are eager to know if it is worth going to the cinema. Let us know! Mad Max in Death Roads - inspirations and insights Our post-apocalyptic wastelands are full of dangers and challenges that we created, heavily drawing from the raw landscapes of the iconic movie we mentioned above. Races are not just about speed – they are life-and-death battles. Shooting, ramming, and explosions add adrenaline to every match. We wanted to replicate the sense of brutality and action that creates something extraordinary in the Mad Max movie. The scenes' atmosphere, the roads' backgrounds and the game mechanics are inspired by George Miller's work. Combining these elements with the plot and story from Death Race - we have created an entirely new entertainment that has found its niche in roguelike turn-based tactics. Be sure to leave your opinion on the movie! You may find other Mad Max inspirations in the game - let us know if you have something! Thanks for staying with us! See you on the road!

Therefore, in addition to the achievements, we are introducing a package of fixes to bugs you reported. We really appreciate your commitment to making the race run smoothly. For example, what’s fixed? Garage View swap components with and without cards Draw pile and discard pile views stays empty if player draw exceeds draw pile Spotlight card does not change the direction of the attack Missing text on the component without cards Cards in players vehicle preview are overlapping World Map View can not display more scrap then 999 Using cloud save on fresh account forces the player to go through cutscene and tutorial before continuing their run AC DC Voltmeter adds overload at the wrong moment Gadget Flask of oblivion does not apply Block satus In-Game the Reset Progress button does not serve its purpose The accumulator card does not grant overload apart from the first action Block generator add 1 block only at 8th drawn card Vehicle with more than 1 slot of same type causes issues with tooltip in rewards view And finally, we wish everyone a successful end of the year. Remember to drive safely outside of Death Roads: Tournament!

  Death Roads: Tournament - Final Update Changelog

  First of all, thanks for all your feedback folks! With it, we’ve been able to rework a lot of balance and difficulty issues. We’ve also added a bunch of new stuff that hopefully will improve your game experience and let you blow up your foes in new exciting ways. Let’s run through the details below: Major Changes Flexible movement range - You can now choose a distance you want to travel while performing movement actions stronger than 1. You can also skip any move action entirely while playing a card. This allows for more freedom with positioning. Handling regeneration - Enemies now regenerate handling at the start of the Player’s turn instead of their own. This way you can now limit the amount of cards the enemies will play during their turn, by reducing their handling without making them skid. Weapon range highlights - When hovering over an enemy vehicle, you can now see the potential range of all its weapons. The highlighted range of a weapon card is also displayed on the board while hovering over a given weapon card in hand, so you no longer have to activate a card to see where it hits. Twists and turns on the world map - The roads on the world map are no longer straight, and now look more like actual routes. Unique body cards - The cards from the body components of all playable cars are now unique to each vehicle, and won’t appear in other components like engines, wheels or accessories. We’ve also reworked most of them to better emphasize different playstyles. Different driver cards and starting gadgets - All playable drivers now have slightly different cards and starting gadgets, that create better synergies for a given playstyle. Reworked cards and components - Many of the existing cards and components were changed to be clearer and focus more on a given function in specific decks. Reworked events - Events now offer better rewards and are less punishing for the Player. Reworked Challenger AI - Challengers in free for all battles can now attack each other inste...
