How it feels

A blisteringly fast arena shooter with overpowered weapons and crazy power-ups, where players compete in customizable vehicles in chaotic, over-the-top combat.

What players say

Players split on ShockRods. Fans of Carmageddon and arena shooters praise the fast, Quake-like vehicular combat and quick matches, but nearly everyone agrees the online is dead and the $25 price is too high for the limited content. Many also report motion sickness, a mobile-like UI, and few maps.
