Review at: darkzero.co.uk/game-reviews/carmageddon-rogue-shift-pc-review

Despite taking Carmageddon in an interesting new direction, this game did not need to use the title, since its mechanics are more a spin-off entry. The beta handling changes were a step in the right direction, as I was ready to give this game a 4 until those changes came, which means hopefully the team at 34BigThings keep improving what they have here. The core loop is occasionally fun and the carnage is great to be a part of, but repetition sets in far too quickly and the lack of endgame content leaves little reason to return once beat. The handling fixes help, but they cannot disguise a thin roguelite built around a narrow selection of events. There is potential here and future updates may yet realise it, but for now, Carmageddon: Rogue Shift is spinning its wheels, struggling to get to the finish line.
