About the 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!
