A game about getting somewhere alive. Drive a terrible car through monster country, kill them for cash, trade up, and make it to Haven. Coming next: a mountain road, a flooded river, a frozen sea and a convoy.
Pick your road
Dead Mileage is out, free, and starts the moment you open it. Four more games are growing out of it, sharing its garage full of guns and its wasteland full of monsters, each with its own way of trying to kill you. They're still in development; each gets its own address here when it's ready.
The original
The monsters own the roads now. Haven, the last walled town, is 16 km down a ruined highway, and all you have is the Rustbucket: a backfiring hatchback with a grenade launcher in the boot. Plough through them for cash, trade up to a pickup, a bus, a bulldozer, and make it to the gates.
The mountain road
One long road over the mountains: ledges with a long drop on one side, cloud forest, snow, stone bridges and tunnels, and towns on the shelves between. Ram a monster off the lip and it counts. Crawlers come up out of the gorge, and the rock sheds stones onto the road.
The flooded river
Pilot a leaky skiff 16 km down a flooded valley. The current carries you, weirs throw you off the lip, snags foul the propeller and wind shoves you at the banks. Pull survivors from the water, salvage, and save up for a real gunboat at the docks between the legs of the river.
The frozen sea
An ice road across a frozen sea in the polar night, to the harbour at Nordhaven. White ice is thick, black ice is thin, and a bigger rig is a heavier one: stop where the sheet is weak and you go through. Behind you, the whole sheet is breaking up.
The convoy
A truck column is driving 24 km through what the war left, and it only moves with you beside it. Escort it through minefields, keep it alive, and call a battery of 155s down on anything. The shells don't check whose side you're on.
A labour of love
Dead Mileage is made for the love of making it, and it is free to play. It used to live on other people's platforms. Now it has a home of its own, here, run on its own terms: open a link and you're driving.

From the road
The daily road
Every day there's one road, one vehicle and one set of rules for everyone. When a run ends in death, the wreck stays on that road for every other driver to find. These are the furthest of them.
From the daily challenge in Dead Mileage. Days change at midnight UTC. A run that reaches Haven leaves no wreck behind, so it isn't on this board: if you made it, you know.
Devlog
Dead Mileage now lives at deadmileage.io: free, in your browser, no download, and your progress comes with you. Four more games are on the way.
The daily road now remembers who died on it. Find other drivers' wrecks, strip them for parts, watch their last seconds and read the warnings they left.
Every day a new, hand-made run on the main menu: the same road, vehicle and rules for everyone. Then it's down to how you drive.
A recent browser with WebGL 2: Chrome, Edge, Firefox or Safari. The graphics adjust to your device by themselves, and you can change them in Settings. If a game runs slowly, check that hardware acceleration is turned on in your browser's settings. On a phone or tablet, hold it sideways for the touch controls.
In your browser, for each game separately. Nothing is stored anywhere else, so it stays on the device you played on. Clearing your browser's data for a game's address clears its save too.
No. Open that old address once in the same browser and it brings your progress along to original.deadmileage.io. Achievement screenshots stay behind; the achievements themselves come with you.
Only from Dead Mileage itself. When a daily run ends in death: where your wreck lies, its last 12 seconds of driving, your vehicle, kills and time, and an anonymous driver number. And an anonymous summary of each finished run (difficulty, distance, what killed you), which helps balance the game and can be turned off in Settings. No account, no name, and addresses aren't stored.
No. Every game here is free, without ads and without anything to buy.
