About Chernobyl: Road of Death

After explosion at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, huge areas were contaminated with radiation. Under its influence, many living organisms were mutated and became very aggressive. The source of the fire at the station has been eliminated, but the reactor is threatened by a second explosion. The whole world is in mortal danger. We assembled a special team, you are one of them.

Your task is to get through the entire Chernobyl zone to the nuclear power plant performing various tasks and prevent a new impending disaster. On the way you expect a lot of dangers - various mutants, armed to the teeth military who arrived in the exclusion zone to steal secret documents. .
But the main danger is your invisible and most dangerous enemy - radiation. To combat it in your Arsenal there is a special water tool that will allow you to eliminate it and move on. Other dangerous elements for you are the weather and time of day. To save from radioactive rains, you can pitch a tent. Night in Chernobyl is especially dangerous and there your best friend will be a flashlight. Also, you can make a fire, which will help to illuminate the area, and next to the tent, it will contribute to a faster recovery. Do not forget to look for food, first aid kits and ammunition, which are scattered on the territory.
Your path will run through forests, swamps, landfills, and you will be able to visit the secret military facility "Duga-2" and the city of Pripyat.

✦ AI summary

Players appreciate this indie Chernobyl-themed isometric shooter for its atmospheric setting, fitting soundtrack, charming pixel art, and solid gameplay with character variety and upgrades, though some find the experience brief. Common criticisms include simplistic AI, broken English dialogue, occasional confusing design choices, and concerns about recent price increases making it less of a value proposition, with a few players finding the core gameplay repetitive or unengaging.

This is an isometric shooter, where you have to complete missions in Chernobyl and in it's neighboring areas when the power plant exploded, making sure that the radiation is contained, however the area filled with mutants, radiation and military which you have to fight against. The game has a cool atmosphere, there are not many soundtrack in the game but I find them fitting to this whole setting. It's a simple game in general, which is not long enough to be boring for a single player through. Graphics is surprisingly good, even though it's nothing complex. You can collect coins to buy upgrades for your character, and also there are 4 different characters to play with and they have different abilities and special weapons. Although the AI in the game is not the smartest which you can exploit it. Also, if you realize which character has the best abilities and weapons, you can get through the game even faster. There is not much differences between missions and they could get boring midway and the final mission does not feel too rewarding. If your expectations low enough and you don't mind the short playtime, you can find this game enjoyable in my opinion. Nothing too crazy, but it's…

Awful music. Awful broken English. Tons of features that do not make sense for this kind of gameplay. Boring gameplay. No thanks.

Great little indie game, great soundtrack and the pixel art compliments the setting of Chernobyl. Only negative is some broken English but I'm assuming the developer is Russian/Ukrainian and a non-native English speaker, it was all understandable so no-biggie. Only [i]real[/i] negative is the recent price increase. Strangely, it was about £2 before, which was fine for the nice little game it is and I don't mind supporting small developers. This seems to have jumped up to a hefty £8.29? Bit confused with that one, for that price I cannot suggest the game at all, but if it lowers back to £2 then I say go for it. Best of luck to the developer.
