Ash Road: Infection (AppID: 4038950)

The world didn’t end. Highways still run, cities still shine, and life carries on—everywhere except here. On Ash Road, the rules change after dark. By day, the gas station hums with diesel and coffee, a quiet stop for the few who dare to travel. But when the sun sets, the woods come alive, and the night belongs to the infected.

In Ash Road Infection, you play as a lone operator—or one of a small band of survivors—tasked with keeping the station alive while the world outside rots away. The challenge is twofold: managing the day-to-day needs of a rural stop, and surviving the nightly siege that begins the moment the sun dips below the treeline.

Gameplay Overview

By Day

• Restock shelves and manage limited fuel supplies.

• Serve the rare customers who still wander through, trading scraps of a fading world.

• Keep generators running and power steady; preparation in daylight shapes survival at night.

By Night

• Fortify the station and hold out until dawn against waves of infected.

• Every sound matters—creaks, knocks, and glass scraping in the dark.

• You’re not here to conquer the outbreak, just to endure another night.

The Setting

Ash Road is a nowhere stretch of highway remembered only for its neon sign and the smell of gasoline. But the woods press too close, the lot never feels empty, and every noise in the night becomes a question: wind… or something worse?

The gas station is your last outpost—your fragile sanctuary against whatever waits in the dark. Each sunrise is a victory. Each nightfall, a heavier weight to carry.

Ash Road Infection isn’t just about keeping a business alive. It’s about clinging to humanity when everything outside the glass wants to take it away. How long can you last?
