    PAM - Post Apocalyptic Mayhem is cool, but way too short.

    Entertaining, but flawed; just like its mythological counterparts! [June 2011, p.71]

    Though not being full-featured, or even sort of featured, PAM is only $9.99, so it's hard to come down on it with a vengeance. In fact, it's quite a bit of fun.

    This short ride's definitely a lemon. [June 2011, p.72]

    Trying to mix things up is a commendable effort, but P.A.M. just comes off as a lazy attempt to revive a previously saturated genre. If there were more tracks and game modes, there could've been a much better game to speak of here. As it stands, Post Apocalyptic Mayhem is a ridiculously overpriced download that you should not waste your money with.

    The empty and amateurish Post Apocalyptic Mayhem belongs in the junkyard, not on your PC.

    Decent Mario Cart rip off. It's fun when it works, but the lobby system is glitchy and the driving physics are poorly implemented--the drivingDecent Mario Cart rip off. It's fun when it works, but the lobby system is glitchy and the driving physics are poorly implemented--the driving doesn't feel arcadish enough for this type of game. Cars lose control way too easily. Lots of invisible walls to run into. Uneven balance of available vehicles.… Full Review »

It has potential for being really entertaining racing game; imagine Carmageddon combined with Fallout world, sounds good right? But the potential ends fast with complete lack of content. Just 3 tracks, and one way of racing which could be improved, too. It took me something like 25 minutes to beat the game (with 1st try) one medium level. Replay value? Pretty much zero.

    It's truly a shame, because the environment looks very nice, fallout'like - and racing in the post apocalyptic setting is quite fun in itself. But the game itself is a complete torso. I paid ~5 euros for it through Steam (50% discount price) and it feels like even that was waste of money. DLC pack adds few cars, nothing else.    … Full Review »

I was kind of separated at start but after a free weekend it was a must buy. Single player is pure fun, but on still kind of easy on medium. The cars are all well balanced. The large ones with strong weapons are less handy and slow. The smaller ones with weaker weapons are faster and more agile. The four tracks which ship with the game are well balanced and really good designed. The coolest and also the weakest point of this game is the multiplayer. When there are games going on it's a pleasure to play. Sadly the amount of games vary and sometimes there are also no games available. But as long as you play multiplayer you will enjoy this game like hell.… Full Review »
