For my money, Death Road to Canada is one of the best games to have landed on iOS in recent times. A crazy mash-up of randomly-generated zombie survival RPG, actioner, and text-based interactive fiction game, it’s a combination that totally shouldn’t work, but — like peanut butter and jelly — totally does.
And now it’s just got a massive update to more a great game even, well, greater. Check out the trailer below.
The iPhone 8 is set to be Apple’s most exciting handset refresh since 2014’s iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus, but not everyone is tripping over themselves to lavish praise on Apple before the phone event makes its debut.

But they’re not JPEGs, which means they’re not universally supported. Luckily, you can easily make JPEG screenshots the default, at least on the Mac.

Some online content makes its mark online. Other content never gets noticed. The reasons can seem like black magic, but it’s actually more like a science. And in actuality, it needs a little nudging from companies like Marketing Heaven to kickstart the business.
