I can confidently say that this is the strangest racing game I’ve ever played. You start off by selecting one of four characters, and they hail from locations such as Nerdsville, Nebraska and Geek City, Tennessee. The game then cuts to a scene of you overlooking a gathering of a group called “The Kings” which I suppose is the coolest group around because they race classic Chryslers. Regardless, your dweeb-self really wants to join the kings.
The 20-race campaign sees you earning cash (for upgrading your vehicle or buying items such as suede jackets) and cool points (to progress from being a nerd to at the end, a jive cat). There are also top-down mini-games that require you to collect teddy bears to woo the hordes of women that you’re attracting with your Chrysler.
The racing itself isn’t great, but the pure hilarity of every other aspect of the game made it a worthwhile experience. In short, I think I need to go buy a classic Chrysler and become a real-life jive cat.
