The verdict
A classic arcade racer and demolition derby with great destruction physics and a rock soundtrack. Skip it if rubber-banding AI and random physics debris annoy you, or if you need reliable online play.
Great for
Fans of arcade racing, demolition derby and 2000s rock nostalgia who want chaotic crash-filled fun
Main risk
Rubber-banding AI and random debris physics ruin races; updates broke online, controllers and Steam Deck for some
