Mafia Roads: A Complete Guide

The game begins with you having a free roll to get assigned a class. Typically, you will get no class at the start. If you are lucky enough, you might land the Runner or another class. After that, head over to the lobby section (titled “Start Here”) and join the game.

When you start the game, you will have some starting gear, such as lanterns and tables for fuel. You will be tasked with selling items you collected for money.

Engage in Combat

Fight mafia enemies using melee or ranged weapons. Dodge attacks by moving or crouching. Monitor your health bar and retreat if low to avoid dying, which may reset progress or cost resources.

Unlock class abilities as you progress to gain combat advantages.

Gather Resources

Collect gold, wood, scrap metal, and other materials from the environment or defeated enemies. Use resources to craft items (e.g., via sheet metal welding) or purchase upgrades from shops.

Here is the list of controls (PC) in the game:

Movement

  • W, A, S, D: Move forward, left, backward, right.
  • Spacebar: Jump.
  • Shift: Sprint (depletes stamina, visible on the HUD).
