The story in "Coffin Dodgers" is characterized as short and somewhat lacking in depth, with many players noting its potential that remains unfulfilled due to a rushed ending and limited campaign content. While the initial premise is unique and humorous, revolving around elderly characters racing against the Grim Reaper, the execution leaves much to be desired, leading to a mixed reception regarding its overall narrative quality. Despite these criticisms, some players found enjoyment in the quirky storyline and the game's comedic elements, appreciating the fun it brings in a multiplayer setting.
“Coffin Dodgers is a quality kart racing game with a unique storyline: a group of senior citizens soup up their mobility scooters to take on the grim reaper in a series of races to the death.”
“The story is original and pretty funny.”
“Coffin Dodgers is a fun, comedic, and unique kart racer with a very unique story.”
“The so-called story is very poorly done.”
“The story is, of course, one of those yadda-yadda race faster than everyone else or death takes your soul blah blah stories, which is fine but really stories like that aren't why you play these.”
“It took me 2 hours and 2 showstopping glitches to finish 'story mode' (game crashed on the cutscene after the first 3 races, and after the final challenge it wouldn't quit out of the victory loop).”
Coffin Dodgers Review
What we're trying to say is: stay away from Coffin Dodgers. It's a humorous concept, but clearly not one that supports a whole game. The awful racing and abysmal presentation are the biggest offenders here, but it's a game with problems weaving all the way through it. If these problems could all be rectified with patches, it could become a fun time-waster, but on release, it's just not in good condition. Poor track design, unattractive visuals, repetitive music, lack of content... We could go on, but we think you get the picture.

Coffin Dodgers is a classic example of a good idea backed up by poor execution. The gameplay feels dated before it starts as it doesn't progress things from the karting pretenders that have come before, and the visuals sort of fittingly feel like they're from an older generation. The premise has lashings of potential and there's a chuckle or two to be found, but the game is far too easy and brief for single players. Multiplayer is limited to offline play only and is as enjoyable as in every other non-Mario and non-Crash Bandicoot-based kart game, which is to say that it won't be one that you'll be trotting out at your gaming parties for very long.
