Minimum on the Steam store: 4 GB of memory, GeForce GTX 630 / Radeon HD 6570, 2 GB of storage. Windows only.

Speed around loops, dart through train crossings, drift around helter skelters, and unleash wacky weaponry in this modern take on classic top-down multiplayer racing games such as Micro Machines and Mashed. The twist? You build the track.

The value story

The lowest price on record is $3.74, set in March 2026. It has been discounted 21 times in the 3 years tracked here, typically at 50 percent off, with about 7 weeks between sales.

Against its own genre it lands in the top 4 percent on value. It is pricier than 76 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 96 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Tricky Towers ($5.99, scores 81) beats it on value, while it beats Rubber Bandits ($2.49, scores 62).

Critics scored it 83. Players sit 8 points higher at 91 percent, which usually means a game that plays better than it reviews.

5 of the 439 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written December 2023 to September 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 80 percent of the 331 reviews written there were positive, against 91 percent overall, and those are 20 percent of everything written about it.

It carries Valve's Deck Verified rating and runs 1.9 hours, about as long as a handheld game wants to be.

You lay a ramp, I place a loop, We gather in a cheerful group, Unaware that in a minute, Someone's jumping off the limit. I nudge your rear, you hit the void, A glowing friendship, now destroyed. "It was a mistake!" I falsely cry, As you plummet from the sky. The score updates, the...
