The verdict
A janky but fun Road Rash-style roguelite brawler, best with friends on the couch. Skip it if you want real racing, deep progression or working online multiplayer.
Great for
Road Rash fans and couch co-op groups who want cheap, chaotic arcade bike combat
Main risk
Repetitive, grindy roguelite with no mid-run saves, little real racing, and dead online multiplayer
What players love
