Our Review
The good
- Responsive controls
- Good variety of weapons
- Fun multiplayer action
The bad
- Too few events in career mode
- Only four event types
- Only four environments
Summary
Varkian Empire should be commended for bringing their own brand of weapon-based arcade racing action to the table. However, Obliteracers feels somewhat unfinished with a short career mode which feels more like a series of events slapped together with no sense of progression. Couple this with the fact that it provides very little replay value outside of obtaining the maximum number of bombs, and the career mode ultimately feels shallow and is probably best viewed as a side portion to the online action where this game really shines.
