What drives the score

How to read this

Grades run S to D, read from the buyer's side. ▲ marks a lift, ▼ a drag or a dock, ? an input we do not have, • a fact this genre's score does not use. How the grades work

What we assumed
  • Steam lists in-app purchases but we have no detail on them. Small caution applied.

Gates the score. Weak reviews cap it, and nothing reaches BANGER without strong ones

The value story

The lowest price on record is $0.39, set in March 2023. Its cuts run 51 percent off as a rule. There have been 78 in the 9 years tracked, about 6 weeks apart.

On value it sits in the top 34 percent of its genre. It is pricier than 65 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 75 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Barro Racing ($4.99, scores 55) beats it on value, while it beats Barro GT ($4.99, scores 19).

9 of the 688 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written March 2020 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 83 percent of the 2,032 reviews written there were positive, against 79 percent overall, and those are 63 percent of everything written about it.

Valve rates it Steam Deck Verified, and at 0.6 hours it is short enough to finish on one.

What players say

The one that started the whole Barro addiction. Tiny cars, simple tracks and physics that occasionally have other plans. Cheap, basic and way more fun than it looks.
