The value story
The lowest price on record is $3.99, set in May 2020. 69 discounts in the 10 years on record. They run about 75 percent off, roughly 6 weeks apart.
Value puts it in the top 9 percent of the games it competes with. It is pricier than 88 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 76 percent. On the same math Carmageddon Max Pack ($2.49, scores 75) and FlatOut ($7.49, scores 77) are the better buys, and they are the games it most resembles.
Of the 514 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 10 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written March 2020 to August 2026. That is more refunded reviewers than 7 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 2,814 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 779 have a larger share. Inside the two-hour refund window, 59 percent of the 621 reviews written there were positive, against 78 percent overall, and those are 23 percent of everything written about it.
Finishing takes 15 hours; clearing it takes 40, which is 2.7 times the campaign.

straight up the funnest car game ive played since carmageddon 2. we miss you stainless, keep making tasteless garbage like this so we can enjoy it. THQ Nordic, give the rights back, yall dont know what to do with it. (if its crashing, download project lasso and make sure to force efficiency mode OFF, i can now run the game with full graphics and everything, which it was crashing through every single race that i did...
Absolutely love this game. Brings back fond memories of playing on my windows xp back in the day. Mods are awesome. Get the overhaul and 80s car pack. endless fun.
The very definition of guilty pleasure. Well, at least in my library. The best tracks in the game coming from a band called Maximum Sexy Pigeon doesn't help.
