Have you ever wanted to launch enemy cars like bowling pins? Redline Crooks lets you do exactly that, and then some. This is a game about smashing, boosting, and blasting your way out of trouble, and it is every bit as chaotic as that sounds.
New video review just dropped, so prepare for chaos. Watch the full video review on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yh7LcXB0P0M
Redline Crooks is a roguelite combat racing game from indie developers Alexander Golke and Mackenzie Palmer. The setup is simple and gloriously dumb in the best possible way.
You are a convict making a break for freedom, and the only way out is through. Through walls, through cops, through anyone unlucky enough to be on the road in front of you.
You race for the exit of each level while piling up points and cash, and the police are not remotely interested in reading you your rights. It is out now on Steam, and there is a demo if you want to try before you buy.
The moment to moment driving is where the game sings. You can slam into rival cars from the side, ram them off the road, launch them into the air, or blow them up entirely, and every takedown rewards you with cash and precious health.
The Boost is your best friend and your worst enemy. Hold it down and you hit dangerously high speeds, smashing straight through walls and enemies, but it eats into your health, so you are constantly gambling on how hard to push.
It turns every stretch of road into a split second risk and reward decision, and it is a blast.
There are nine playable convicts to unlock, each with their own playstyle and character specific upgrades, so the way you approach a run shifts depending on who you climb behind the wheel with.
Tracks are procedurally generated, so no two escapes play out the same, and periodic boss fights break up the mayhem and force you to adapt on the fly.
Between runs you spend your ill gotten gains on upgrades, and that steady drip of progression is exactly what turns one quick go into a whole evening of just one more escape.
Redline Crooks knows exactly what it is: fast, loud, violent arcade fun with a roguelite hook that keeps pulling you back for another run.
It is not trying to be a deep driving simulation, and it is all the better for it. If you have ever wanted to treat a police blockade like a stack of bowling pins, this one is an easy recommendation.
Watch the full video review above for the complete breakdown and to see the carnage in glorious motion.

Theropods says nothing and means everything. A wordless caveman adventure that tells its whole story through gesture, grunts, and gorgeous pixel art.
Overall, The Fisherman: Fishing Planet is a solid title that is obviously geared toward fishing aficionados and those who have a keen interest in the sport.
