mid, better than Carmageddon: Max Damage.
Won't suggest to play it on usual.
pretty fun game lol pick a cool car smash zombies and other racers earn money get better cars repeat is a fun arcade game to relax a bit the music is pretty lit
Clutch... I actually remember playing this one back in the day! and I just searched it up on Steam to see if it existed! AND IT DID! wow, such nostalgia man, but, this game isn't very good, but not awful either, it's just average, there are definitely better games out there nowadays, but Clutch for its time was pretty alright, the story is bland but charming in a way, and the game still works in 2022 unlike most games which cannot be accessed anymore due to old age or poor remasters, there are a few songs I really like in this one that keep you wanting to slaughter zombies on repeat, speaking of repeating things... this game gets pretty repetitive pretty fast, especially if you go for all the game modes levels completions, but... again... an alright game!
Must have found this game on the side of the highway years ago. One of those true hidden gems that nobody else has every played to the point where its hard to find information about it online. Anywhere. I think in Europe its sold under a different title. Saw it on steam and decided to pick up a copy. I'd say it holds up pretty well. Doesn't take that long to run through the game, maybe a few afternoons and I'd say its worth it. The racing is very intense. 100% inspired by carmageddon except it has much much better races. To be fair there IS a lot of ruberbanding to make the game challenging , and every once in a while a hummer will come roaring up behind you up a hill just before you get to the finish line, but overall I feel like they balanced it extremely well. Still can't seem to beat the massacre level and not a big fan of the destruction derby challenges but 1st person racing, running over zombies with the windshield blood turned on is truly adrenaline pumping. Only complaint is that when you pick up a power up it splashes it across the entire screen blocking your view. Totally forgivable with all of the other things this game has going for it. I personally found that the game aged pretty well, but then again I still dust off Daggerfall every once and a while so take that for what its worth.
Clutch
Positives:
+ The music is for the most part good
+ Ok handling
+ Open world
+ Upgrades
+ Can be fun for a short amount of time
Negatives:
- Feels grindy and repetitive too fast
- Side missions are grindy, no fun and quite hard
- Graphics feel dated and washed out
- Not enough money for winning, and costly upgrades
- The story is boring and makes no sense
- Takes a lot of time to unlock all cars and upgrade them (not worth it)
If you love zombie squashing and are desperate for a new carmaggeddon clone, this might be a game for you.
If youre looking for a high quality game that takes your breath away, this is not the one.
To sum it up, there is only one word needed: Medicore.
Total Score: 5.5/10
This is one of my childhood games I really loved the idea of the game as a kid and still love it till now ,But the main problem with this game you cant drift at all ,I was hoping to replay the game but im not going to ruin my childhood memory and torture myself to replay it ,specially with one of the most important driving games mechanic being missing
damn it, Targem Games...your games got a lot of jank and handling is weird but my god the games you make are fucking fun!
I wish I had played this back then, it would have been a blast in 2009...
At first I was unimpressed until you slowly kept progressing through the career and unlocked cooler parts and cars and paintjobs. I will say that only after about 2 hours I started to feel the fun nature and how things got faster and better. I love the AI though, it doesn't rubberband but they feel skilled as fuck, but I like how I just have the option to wreck their cars if I want to. You can definitely play this one for a lot more time than me, especially if you want certain car parts and to try all mini game modes or extra stuff. I am absolutely recommending it
It's really hard for me to recommend Clutch, even despite me spending 11 hours of my life playing it.
For one, the PS3 version is the definitive version of the game with many improvements which I will mention later.
This game had so much potential but unfortunately, it just comes off as rushed halfway.
Only 3 cars out of 8 are customizable, and they have some cars shown in the concept art that don't appear in the game at all. The races are too easy and the car collisions are really bad, you'll ram some cars at full speed and they would BARELY get any damage.
The zombies don't even fight back! They only do that when you are stationary, which never happens unless you are afk and forgot to press the pause button. The PS3 version (Armageddon Riders) does make them attack back however, though not much it would have made Clutch have more personality.
Zombies themselves aren't varied and all die from a simple tap, so it just comes off as a really bad version of Carmageddon.
The story is meh and honestly very badly translated. The map is also very forgettable.
If you would like to play Clutch, try to buy the PS3 version (Armageddon Riders) which fixes a lot of the problems, though even then I wouldn't recommend it.
Some things better stay in the past...
Now I sure do love me some oldies from the early days, don't get me wrong, but even the nostalgia factor can't defeat the fact these kind of games don't live up to modern standarts.
Clutch (also known as Armageddon Riders) is an arcade racing wannabe with a strong Carmageddon vibes all over it. Although it's simplistic nature - you race around collecting colored upgrades for money, nitro and even weapons, smash'n'drive through plethora of brainless zedies and finishing pretty simple racing missions a-la NFSU2 (even open world reminisce the latter) - it can't offer much more. As soon as you play Clutch for an hour and grind for car upgrades you eventually end up bored with obesity and monotonous nature of this game. Everything it tries to do Carmageddon did it much better.
And I know Clutch was made by a russian developer team back in 2009 (had been playing it then for some bizarre period of time). But even then you could find other mindless racing titles a-like (Zombie Driver, DIPRIP or even Carmageddon TDR2000) and it would be more fun.
The music is another subject I want to point out: it's trash. As far as I remember I was playing the game with it tuned off, better off launch Winamp or some other player that you have with your own choice of tunes.
P.S.: the game doesn't support Dualshock 4 natively even after installing DS4Win or changing Steam Controller Layout so the gamepad could be used as an Xbox ones - it only imitates keyboard usage.
The concept is nice but the driving lacks any sense of speed or involvement and crashing has no impact. I usually like games like these a lot, but this one bored me within 1 hour
Played Carmageddon, it was the original, but this different, it handles better, and the graphics are awesome and slick and to be honest I like this, the challenges, the driving aspect, and the graphics are really good. I know there other games out there similar to this and I have played most of them, but you can fun with this for hours or minutes, its up to you, either way I would recommend to this to anyone who likes driving and zombies
Interesting and creepy story, awesome music, zombies, other drivers, bunch of different missions, about 8 cars to unlock, only three can be upgraded.
I honestly liked this game.
The story is a little... weird? I guess it's kinda normal when we talk about a post-apocalyptic game, so I fairly liked it.
The gameplay, graphics, etc... feel a bit old but hey, it's an old game after all, let's show some "respect".
With that being said, do you like cars? Do you like guns? Do you like killing zombies? Do you like killing zombies with cars and guns? I may recommend you this game, give it a look C:
it's a cool game, mxing driving and action ! The Gameplay is really good, like an old school carmaggedon (without pedestrians ... sad haha) but the game have aspecific post apocalyptic ambiant and it's fun ! Between this one and last Carmaggedon Max Damage I'll recommand this one definitely !
Whilst I do recommend this game for the joy of blatant zombie killing, however i would recommend not to do any races unless you are sure you're ready........... and you have the highest upgrades too.
#Rubberbanding AI At its finest.
P.S. I completed a non - Steam copy of this game before too. So I know what i'm raging about.
This is a good game, i bought it when it was new years ago and i still play it every so often, its just a simple arcade racing game were you can smash up zombies, earn money for upgrades and cars and do a few little side activitys like paint job hunting, chasing down astroids or do demo derbys. Theres no reason not to buy this game if you liked games like twisted metal or other car combat games.
At the moment Clutch is only 2.99 Euro and at this price, buy it. But the normal price of 9.99 Euro is too high in my opinion.
The story is simply stupid and it does not help at all that the short story snippets are triggered by particular missions, which you can play without any order.
But apart from that, for 2.99 the game offers quite some fun. What is not to like about a car that eats zombies?
PROS
+ the various racing modes are fun
+ pimping your cars for maximum zombie destroying (and eating) power is fun
+ great soundtrack
+ wreaking havoc feels very satisfying
Cons
- ridiculous story, which is barely there anyway
- a bit repetitive after some time
This was nice to play. People who like Carmageddon will probably like this
Positives:
Good graphics quality. Really good I guess for the time of the release, no worse than in more recent Carmageddon: Reincarnation
Fun physics
Nice maps with destructive elements and stuff like ramps or tunnels to perform stunts
Cars eating zombies
Cars setting zombies on fire
Cars getting energy from eating and dismembering zombies for a nitro boost
You get to race and eat zombies with your car inside the Large Hadron Collider
Game-appropriate music that goes well with munching zombies at high speed and wrecking opponents
Negatives:
An incredibly stupid lore that is hybrid of partially being ripped off S.T.A.L.K.E.R. and adapted to the Cern environment. Serioulsy, if you are trying to get people to play who know what the LHC is, it would be better if you worked more on the lore.
Very small selection of cars
Campaign's plot is far below average, if the game took itself less seriously, the plot would have been more appropriate.
Colours in most places are far less vivid than in Carmageddon and for the amount of nonsense lore the game has, it takes itself too seriously. If it had more of Carmageddon's senseless fun, it would have been better.
Overall, I would recommend to buy this game if you like killing zombies with cars and getting bonuses for that. But maybe better to buy this when on sale.
I really wanted to like this game but there's more issues to it that makes it not worthwhile. Granted it has a few gems to it. I mean come on, who doesn't like fast cars and killing zombies at the same time.
The game mechanics are generic but the physics are believeable enough. The hud is extremely confusing unless you pay close attention and die so many times in demolition. Demolion mode has some quirks to work out with the A.I. but otherwise generally decent.
Now this is personal gripe so take it with a grain of salt, I like customizing my cars....alot. From moving the decals to upgrading pistons in the engine. This game just gives you paint job with no choice in decals whatsoever. However, you can upgrade yur car's weapons which is decent....It's not.
And getting new cars is a challenge in itself considering you have to litteraly beat the everlasting hell out of the other car you want. And even then, there may be the case your car is slow enough to be overtaken by a snail that the other car can leave you in in it's dust blood and zombie infested wake.
All in all the game itself had potential, and it could have used some major developing before being turned loose, but the mediocre customization, confusing as hell story, and difficulty of getting something better than that clunker you get at the start almost make this game dead in the water.
4/10 "The Diamond in the Rough zombie driver."
For those of you who played Carmageddon, back in the late 90's, this game is the spiritual successor.
Created by a Russian based development house, the game is all the more charming for it.
Gone is the cliched smart arse teenage driver, who is trying to find / avenge his family / girlfriend / teddy bear , instead you play as a Hunter who will take on various missions, thus earning upgrades, etc.
The missions are of the standard type Kill / Capture mostly, with Escort and Timed runs thrown in.
The controls are simple and easy to pick up, so the learning curve is minimal, letting you get straight to the fun.
And this is where other racing games have seemingly lost their way, because they focus more on a teeth grinding level of challenge, invoking frustration.
It involves a time commitment to play those games - is it a game or a relationship ?
With this game, I can pick it up, play it, and leave happy, because it gave me a fun experience.
And that is exactly what I paid for.
Fun.
Clutch is a pretty awesome game. If you have a couple bucks burnin through your pocket, or you just need something to do out of boredom, pick this up. A hybrid of racing, action, Clutch is one of the many "post apocalyptic zombie" games out there. Its only glaring downfall is that there is no multiplayer, which astounds me as this game screams out "PLAY ME WITH YOUR FRIENDS!!!!". One can only hope for a patch of some sort, but I digress, this is a pretty decent game. There's no real storyline though aside from mission titles.
