There are some interesting and well-implemented ideas here that make Obliteracers stand-out, but it gets drowned out amid the rest of the game which more often than not fails to make use of its unique mechanics and relies on generic tropes that have been better implemented elsewhere. There's still some fun to be had in a spare 30 minute session alone, and it excels when played with friends – but on the whole it fails to provide enough depth and variation to keep the average player Obliteracing after the initial taster.
"Obliteracers is a comedy simulation game that supports up to 16 local players in fierce, round-based combat races. Race as brutal-cute aliens on exotic planets, using physics-based vehicles and weapon powerups to annihilate competitors. Customizable party game modes cater to all ages and skill levels, and can be played with gamepads, laptops, and smart devices."
