First of all, I want to say that while I'm not recommending this game, I LOVED THIS GAME AS A KID! The reason why I can't recommend this game in the 21st century is the HORRIFIC pixellated graphics. They're so bad to the point that I can't make out the track and where I'm supposed to go. If you were expecting an 'updated' version of this game (like I was) with some graphical touchups...nope! This game is just a direct DOS rip that uses DOS Box to load. Sad to say, I probably should have just left this game in my good memories of the past and not touched this in the 21st century. If you still want to get this game, it IS playable but don't expect too much from it. Get it as cheap as possible and if you still have an old CRT monitor in storage, THIS might be one of those rare times to actually pull it out and dust it off.
As someone who never played a classic racer before, I can't say I'm a huge fan. I could see this being cool back in the day, but in the modern age, it's not very good. If you don't have nostalgia for these sorts of games, I'd avoid this.
The Whackiest of Wheels >.> DAS WHACK YO!
Childhood. Thank you 3D Realms for bringing all these classic memories to PCs for modern hardware.
For a game that originally released in 1994 (according to google) this is not to bad actually, appart from the weird controls (alt for speed, ctrl for shooting items, arrow buttons to steer). The graphics are not bad either but also low-key hurt your eyes during turns or drifts and i had to turn down the music after 5 seconds because it was so annoying. If you are looking for nostalgia, this game will surely work great for you, if you have never played it before you will probably be disappointed by what you get.
Fun trip down nostalgia lane. Game works pretty well on Steam Deck with good native mapping of controls.
PROS: -Fun as hell -Characters -Weapons -Multiplayer rocks CONS: -No upscaling -Terrible framerate +-VERY tight controls (maybe too tight for some) SIDENOTE: I remember this being played with PC speaker sounds. Is there a way to turn this feature on? I like the soundtrack and sound design, but I'm pretty nostalgic for that buzzy, beepy PC speaker that came by default back in the day.
Cutesy little racing game from the DOS days. Only thing I don't like is the lives system.
One of my favorite games in my childhood. Happy memories (^^,)
Good ol' game
