DESCRIPTION

The video game equivalent of Death Race 2000 has players battling five aggressive, maniacal drivers while earning points for mowing down frantic pedestrians and oblivious livestock. Carmageddon includes a total of 36 circuits, set within five themed environments, and more than 25 vehicles to unlock and master, from armored station wagons to deadly dump trucks. Two characters are initially available, Max Damage and Die Anna, each possessing distinct vehicles rated in speed, strength, and handling.

The goal is to improve your 99th overall ranking by ramming rivals, crossing checkpoints, or by eliminating all pedestrians before time expires. Unlike traditional racers, Carmageddon allows players to roam freely across the environments, collecting power-ups, performing suicidal stunts, and splattering people along the way. Credits earned from kills can be used to repair or upgrade vehicles in the areas of armor, power, and offense. Multiplayer support via LAN is also available for up to six demented drivers in seven play modes. ~ Scott Alan Marriott, All Game Guide
