The drop-off

No achievement in this game marks the ending, so there is no finish rate. The curve runs from the most-unlocked achievement to the rarest, and its shape is where players stop. Steam global achievements

What players say

Haven't played this in a while, but still have fond memories of it. If you're on a lower end system and looking for a fairly easy game to just pick up and drive a race car on various tracks, this will work nicely for that.
