How it feels

A madcap Japanese-themed ragdoll racer where fruit-throwing chaos and physics-based slapstick make every marathon feel like a hilarious disaster.

What players say

Players call it a janky but charming party game best played with friends locally, with silly Japanese game-show vibes and a great soundtrack. Many say it is overpriced at full price and recommend grabbing it on sale. The single-player is considered less enjoyable.
