The upside, though, is that this is a game that’s pretty easy to make your mind up about; new cars or guns won’t flip this game on its head if you don’t enjoy the core gameplay in the first 30 minutes, because the upgrades feel like more of the same, just better.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.

As for the gameplay, this is my first Carmageddon game ever, so I have no nostalgia or long-term emotional investment in the series, and I genuinely enjoy the combat racing rogue-lite gameplay loop.
Graphics

The illustrations shown during the tutorial and before facing the three bosses are quite decent, but that same art style never really carries over into the races themselves.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.

If there’s one aspect of Carmageddon: Rogue Shift that stands out positively, it’s the soundtrack.
