Carmageddon Max Pack

PC (Microsoft Windows), DOS

Should you play it?

Carmageddon is the original freeform driving sensation, where pedestrians (and cows!) equal points, and your opponents are a bunch of crazies in a twisted mix of automotive killing machines. The game features anarchic drive-wherever-you-like gameplay and over-the-top surreal comedy violence. It’s the racing game where racing is for wimps.

What works

  • Nostalgic and addictive gameplay
  • Multiple ways to complete races
  • Open and varied maps
  • Vehicle upgrades and customization
  • Iconic soundtrack and sound effects

Things to keep in mind

  • Runs via dosbox with technical issues
  • Outdated graphics and controls
  • Repetitive gameplay in later stages
  • Limited multiplayer and social features
  • No cloud saves or modern conveniences
