About This Game

SURVIVOR CHAOS. ON WHEELS.

Road Riot is a vehicle survivor roguelite about ridiculous weapons and staying alive behind the wheel. Fight through growing hordes, collect upgrades and turn your ride into a machine that clears crowds.

MAKE EVERY TURN COUNT

Your weapons fire automatically. You handle the driving. Slip through gaps, line up attacks and lead pursuing enemies into chains of timed mines. Hit your gadgets when things get crowded.

BUILD SOMETHING RIDICULOUS

Bowl enemies into each other. Freeze them solid and ram them into shards. Send a ghost of your car charging along the path you just drove.

Choose weapons and add-ons as you level up, tune their behavior and discover powerful evolutions. What you equip on changes how you fight.

PICK YOUR RIDE. HIT THE ROAD.

Take a hatchback, bus, ice-cream truck or tank into a strange ’80s world of drive-ins, roadside motels and hostile crowds. Each vehicle brings its own starting weapon, strengths and rewards. Each map brings new enemies, hazards and bosses.

Warm pixel art and a groovy soundtrack come along for the ride.

GET WRECKED. COME BACK LOADED.

Your run’s build ends when your car does. Your earned scrap, unlocks and permanent upgrades stay.

Head back to the garage, improve your ride and put together your next loadout. Try another vehicle, chase an evolution or turn up the difficulty.
