Dec. 2025
alot better to play on analog keyboards/controllers because the gas and breaks go really hard if you push all the way down. the game is pretty fun even though there are quite alot of rng that can slow you down/kill you, but it doesnt feel bad to die to bad rng, it just adds more to the tension of the game

Every run can be different, and a few things can be based on luck, like the Scratches and the Dark Alleys (which makes you think if it's really worth the risk). The old lady asks you for three items, so make sure you remember to get them. This game has two endings (if you don't die on the way), so it will depend on whether you get them or not. The runs are short; you can replay and retry.

It was... an experience, I guess. Driving isn't fun, but it's an OK experience for the price tag.

Extremely scary when sober but when paired with 5 miller or coors and either Corona by Minutemen, Freebird, or the Squidbillies theme it turns into your average midwestern commute
