A game that has gone down in history thanks to its immense playability and brutality. These are car races, which allow drivers to leave the marked out route on the pavement and start the demolition....

Carmageddon: it’s murder on the streets. The nastiest driving game in the world… ever!

Pit you wits against 25 manic drivers over 36 formidable race circuits in your quest to become the King of Carnage and the Prince of the Pile-Up! Carmageddon has reinvented the driving game; your position doesn’t count and it doesn’t matter one iota who gets across the line first. All that counts is the amount of damage you inflict and organs you liberate on the way.

Take the wheel as Max Damage and waste contestants, pedestrians and farmyard animals for points and credit. You must maim, kill and cheat your way to the top ranking. Customise you car for a better performance with parts stolen from your victims and smash ‘n’ trash your way to the top. Earn extra points and time for imaginative and humorous pedestrian pulping and opponent bashing – wimps are not rewarded. The aim of the game (other than to enjoy yourself and cause as much death and destruction as possible) is to increase your rank, starting out at 99 and hopefully ending up as number 1, by earning credits. Kill all the pedestrians and earn a juicy bonus. The higher the rank the more choice of races you have to enter and the more cars you get your hands on; look out for a rather special one in the latter stages, as big as a small house with the performance of a fighter plane…

Armour up in the ‘parts shop’ and spend credit to enable you to inflict maximum damage on your opponents, steal cars you have smashed during the race and use them in the next race, once you have smashed and trashed your way round the course why not visit the wrecks gallery and gloat over the all that damage you caused?
