Mutant Roadkill is a dynamic, part post-apocalyptic, part zombie-infested driving game for Android devices.

Gameplay and Mechanics

Mutant Roadkill expounds the essence of survival. The objective for gamers is to push through as far as possible, seamlessly dodging damaged cars and assorted obstacles. It throws a fresh spin into the zombie-fleeing genre, with the option to mow down zombies as you navigate the dystopian streets. There's an added twist as various types of zombies attempt to overturn your vehicle by jumping onto its side. The game utilizes the device's gyroscope, establishing control of the vehicle through tilting the device, and strategically timed swipes to alter direction.

Power-ups in Mutant Roadkill are designed to tip the scales slightly in favor of the player against sturdier zombies. Players have access to upgrades cars, in addition to enhancing the already available power-ups. This game utilizes a similar in-app purchase system as others within the genre, which can require a significant grind or buying coins with real money.

Graphics and Aesthetics

On the visual front, Mutant Roadkill showcases a distinct look that sets it apart from similar games such as Zombie Highway. The game employs a different color palette, employing cell-shaded styles that inject a unique vibrancy to the game. The inspiration from other zombie-driver games is evident, but it's fair to say that Mutant Roadkill etches a niche for itself in the graphical aspect.

The game also benefits from alterations such as the addition of a super-charged vehicle with a permanent attribute. There's been the incorporation of a new permanent coin-doubler item, and the Super Bomb not appearing issue has been resolved. More bug fixes and enhancements to the game performance have also been implemented.

On the whole, Mutant Roadkill is a captivating game—delivering thrill and excitement, though it somewhat borrows heavily from elements that exist in other zombie driving games.
