Not many games are pure dumb fun, but this one sure is. The less you focus on winning and the more you focus on causing chaos, the more fun it becomes.

Wreckfest My favorite racing simulator, the spiritual successor to Flatout from the same developers, which might lag behind Forza Horizon in some aspects but overall has its own advantages. The FuckFest servers, where you're met head-on by seven battle buses at once, where the world's top Wreckfest players compete, and where it can take up to half an hour just to join a server, constantly refreshing the server list to get in and play — it's a lot of fun. It's even more fun if you have a big group of friends, just as goofy as you, to dive into the game together. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3335287998 By the way, the soundtrack (which my pretentious hipster friend called "dad rock") is actually pretty good. I even added a few tracks to my Spotify playlist — solid stuff. Shoutout to DarkWay, who happily uninstalled the game, hoping to never end up in a ditch in his wrecked car again. I'm really looking forward to the recently announced Wreckfest 2 so I can completely wreck him there.

Sept. 2024

Wreckfest is hands down the BEST racing game I have ever played. Whether you use your keyboard, a controller, or a direct drive racing wheel like I do, you can be competitive. Steam modders have added a ton of great content for Wreckfest. The online racing is awesome and the people who play this game are (mostly) the best. Can't wait for Wreckfest 2

Aug. 2024

A sophisticated portrayal of the spirited chaos and high-octane antics indulged by those escaping the Finnish capital at the stroke of 4 p.m. each Friday, especially along the iconic E75, affectionately referred to as ‘Nelostie’ by the locals. In a more reflective tone, Wreckfest stands as nothing less than a triumph of game design, masterfully intertwining the art of precision driving with the stark and often brutal reality of calamitous destruction should one falter. It flawlessly captures the delicate interplay between unbridled anarchy and the discipline of control, offering a compellingly authentic portrayal of vehicular combat at its most exhilarating.
