Burnout Crash! is another part of the arcade racing series, in which we rushed to break our necks, raced against our opponents and smashed their vehicles. The latest part focuses entirely on reproducing the idea of Crash mode, debuting in Burnout 2: Point of Impact. Traditionally, Criterion Games studio is responsible for creating the production.
The game boils down to causing the largest possible carambolas at the crossroads of crowded streets. The game assesses the invention and ingenuity of each crash, and the game continuously assesses the degree of damage, awarding us the appropriate amount of points for them. The key is to trigger as many chain reactions as possible in order to get the right multiplier, which significantly increases the achieved result. In total, the creators gave us three game modes and eighteen intersections.
Unlike the predecessors, in this version we observe the action from a bird's eye view, which quite strongly changes the character of the game. It's all because we can't see exactly what's far ahead of us and driving is largely based on reflexes. Since the essence of the game is to beat records and compete in this field with other players, the developer has included the Autolog system. It is a patent well known to the fans of Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit. He collects information about our results and compares them with the achievements of his friends.
As befits the title distributed through digital distribution, the binding presents itself quite modestly compared to the boxed editions of the cycle. We are dealing with colourful, slightly exaggerated graphics. During the crash we can see many explosions and numbers on the screen symbolizing the growing point score.
