The verdict
A short, explosive, cheesy twin-stick vehicle shooter that shines in co-op. Skip it if you play on keyboard, hate timers and no checkpoints, or fear crashes on modern PCs.
Great for
Couch or online co-op fans who want mindless, explosive, 80s-action-movie arcade fun on a gamepad
Main risk
Crashes with no mid-mission checkpoints, plus awkward vehicle and keyboard controls, can ruin it
What players love
Explosive, destructible arcade action
