Road Redemption

Really not what I expected. I was a big fan of Road Rash and the Road Rash 3D. I thought there would be set tracks and a campaign like RR3D, but this is just a roguelite and with very generic track generation. The driving is just bad. There aren't even proper races, all you are doing is trying to kill other riders.

Overgrindy roguelite

Their idea of "campaign" is the same as a Mario kart "Cup". A list of "tracks" with some story line bolted on top.

I LOVE this game so much

It's a much better version of the game we played as little kids. haha. Road Rash I think it was. I've been having all kinds of fun playing this game.

Road Redemption is basically the number one couch co-op game I play with my mates. It’s brilliant with people who’ve never touched it before, and somehow still brilliant when you’ve played it loads. It’s just really easy to jump into. The driving takes a little bit of getting used to, but after that you’re just flying around on bikes, smashing people with weapons, racing, kicking people off the road and generally causing absolute carnage. For anyone old enough to remember Road Rash, this does a really good job of capturing that same kind of ridiculous fun. That was one of my favourite games growing up, and this definitely scratches the same itch. The voice acting is also hilariously bad in a way that actually makes the whole thing better. It’s cheap, it’s loads of fun, and the co-op is the real star. Quick tip as well: kicking people is often one of the easiest and most satisfying ways to kill them. Boot someone into a wall or off a bridge and they’re basically done. If you regularly play couch co-op with mates, I genuinely wouldn’t overthink this one. Just buy it.
