Summary

• Death Road To Canada combines zombie-smashing with a road trip to Canada.
• The Long Drive randomizes everything, making each playthrough a nightmare and yet, fun.
• Final Fantasy 15 is an epic RPG with a focus on driving across the country.

Nothing says 'exhausting but🌊 fun vacation' quite like a 10-year-old car that's just a tad too small for everyone to fit, a small gas station's worth of snacks, and a CD that nobody remembers buying but has presumably been in the car's CD player for as long as the car has existed.

Books and movies are no strangers to stories about these meandering adventures, but when it comes to video games specifically, finding a good road trip can be just as rare as experiencing a good road trip in real life. That said, there are good 💙road trip games o✨ut there, and to prove it, we hunted down the best video game road trips the medium has to offer.

10 Death Road To C🦩anada 🍸

Classic Road Trip Vibes With A Zombified Twist

When theไ168澳洲幸运5ಞ开奖网: zombie apocalypse inevitably breaks out across the United States, Death Road To Canada understands that the only logical place to go for safety against the un♕dead hoard is someplace north of the Canadian border.

As such, you (and a friend if you choose to play the fantastic couch co-op mode) must embark on a zombie-smashing, occasionally car-crashing adventure to the safety of Canada, knowing all the while that if yoℱu don't play your cards right, this could be the last road trip you ever take.

9 🍌 The Long Drive 𝕴

Every Driver's Worst Nightmare

The Long Drive is a game that seeks to replicate the feeling of being hopelessly lost, looking upꦐ and down th♔e map, and eventually just giving up and driving because, well, the road has to lead somewhere, right?

It does this by randomizing everything and making pretty much every attempt at progressing a complete nightmare. We love this. The Long Drive is, after all, just fun to play, and its chaotic premise is precisely why we find ourselves coming back again and again,🔴 just toꦓ see what happens next.

8 The Oꦦregon Trail 🍷

You Have Died Of Dysentery

168澳洲幸运5开奖网:The Oregon Trail is as road trip as it gets, even if it never once has you stepping foot into the rusted shambles of a 1975 AMC Pacer. Together with a family of your own creation, you'll hobble through a series of troubling status ailments, and occasionally get to play a fun hunting game, too𝓰.

In all seriou๊sness, we love The Oregon Trail. It's one of the most important games ever made, and it is the definition of a classic road trip adventure.

7 Final Fantasﷺy 15

Fantasy Epic Meets Rubber Tires

Yes, as odd as it may seem, Final Fantasy 15, a 🦄core entry in one of the fantasy genre's most iconic franchises, is, when all is said and done, ultimately about taking a nice car and drivi꧋ng it across the country until it inevitably breaks down.

For as many issues as the game has with pacing, we like to think that these only serve to enhance the feeling of being on a long-winded road trip that Final Fantasy 15 gleefully transforms into 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:an epic RPG with titanic boss fights, fancy cars, and weddiಌng politics.

6 🍸 Heading Out

A New Road Every Time

Heading Out is an intriguing mixture of 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:racing game and 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:visual novel, with sprinkles of the roguelike genre placed on top 🌠just for good measure.

With a presentation st🍃yle that screams passion and excitement and a heavy basis on classic road trip and driving movies, Heading Out is a fant🔯astic adventure that's worth replaying over and over again. After all, you never know what exactly you'll end up finding out there on the open road.

5 Jalopy

Jalo-What Now?

If you've never heard the term before, a jalopy is defined as "an old car in di꧂lapidated condition", and trust us, that's a great title for a game all about taking a beat🃏 up hunk of dysfunctional tin and attempting to drive it from Berlin to Turkey with your uncle.

This is a game that understands the anxiety of driving something that really should n✱ot be on the road, and at every turn requires you to think about w🅠hat needs to 🅺be replaced in your beat-up old lemon, and how to get the money for repairs in an engaging gameplay loop.

4 🍨 Talking To My Dad

Just Talk, And Maybe Listen

One of the most crucial aspects of the road trip archetype in storytelling is unfortunately also its real𓄧 world equivalent's m🌄ost painful; at some point, you have to have a conversation, and it's going to have to get personal. Them's the breaks.

Talking To My Dad boils the trip itself down into just that one, painfully awkward conversation, and as a result, feels very real, focused, and personal. For that reason, we get the feeling that this free indie browser game isn't going to be for everybody, but if it's for you, it's really for you.

3 Roaꦦd Trip Adventure

An Open World Racing RPG

Also known as Everywhere Road Trip, this cult 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:classic racing adventure game will have you💃 racing across the globe in order to become the president. No, we're not kidding, that is actually the plot of this game.

The game defies its otherwise particularly forgettable name with some wild surprises and captivating gameplay, combining open world, racing, and adventure elements into one of gaming's most overlooked masterpieces. Seriously, if you can, hunt down168澳洲幸运5开奖网: this PS2 classic and give it a try. We promise, you'll be hooked.

2 Pacific Drive ꦉ

Where You're Going...Yeah, You'll Still Need Roads

In choosing to combine a solitary road t♕rip through northern California with an inter♑dimensional threat, Pacific Drive manages to present you with tried and true ideas that still come across well enough to convince you that its developers have re-invented the wheel in the best way possible.

Pacꩵific Drive feels unique, complicated, slick, and above all else, myster🐈ious. It keeps you guessing and engaged all the way through, ironically making it leagues more interesting than any real world road trip we've ever taken, all while keeping the road trip aesthetic intact.

1 💮 The Last ꦉOf Us

Gaming's Greatest Road Trip

Argue all you like, but when you get right down to it, The Last Of Us is a road trip, and a pretty darn good one at that.ꦍ Two misfit characters journey across the country in the aftermath of a terrifyingly realistic fungal disease which transforms everyone into a monster, infected or not.

With its outstanding character writing, tense atmosphere, and heart wrenching conclusion, The Last Of Us is an all-time great, andꦗ may forever be remembered as gaming🅘's most beloved road trip, regardless of how you feel about the controversial sequel.
