About the Game

Dead Rails is an intense, cooperative, twin stick shooter. In a world where humanity has come to solely rely on rail roads and train stations for transportation of supply, players must work together to progress along the railroad, and get as far as possible while resupplying at survivor camps.

FUEL THE TRAIN! Its important to keep the train stocked with plenty of fuel to avoid being left stranded and falling prey to the zombies.

Maneuver through obstacles and look for hidden pathways to find golden gears. Use them to buy cool attachments and turn your train into a fuel grabbing, zombie slaying machine.

Explore abandoned buildings and search for crates that give you stat upgrades, giving you a better chance at surviving the horde.


Protect yourself and your teammates by pumping zombies full of lead with different weapons and blowing their brains out!
