came with the video card 10 some odd years ago. was fun-ish. tried to go back and play it now and it locks up my whole machine. not worth my time and energy debugging if the devs wont keep it up to date.
Good Game, not a lot of content but will bring lots of fun
I've had this game in my library since 2011, only started playing it again recently and spend more hours in it than I expected. It is a fun arcade combat racing game, rather quirky but entertaining enough in short bursts. Tracks are limited and the racing aspect really is limited to chasing other cars before gunning them down. Multiplayer is only possible if you can convince some friends or through the forums. I wouldn't recommend buying it now but give it another go if you have it in your library or during a sale.
The game is very simple, with few features, tracks, vehicles, and game modes. Had more content and game modes been added, This could very well be a top tier game
That being said, what is here is honestly incredibly well done. The graphics are good, the vehicles are diverse, well designed, and fun to play, the controls are solid (Though some of the smaller cars like Nucloid slide way too much), the concept is great, the track design is fantastic, the sound design and music are great, and the game runs very well.
While I do think it is overpriced for the amount of content this game has (Seriously, some more modes would have really helped), I think this game is a solid arcade racer that is quite fun. I would just recommend waiting for a sale.
Post Apocalyptic Mayhem has to be the most underrated racing games on Steam. My family and I play this game every week, I liked it so much we have a copy on both accounts. I realized I hadn't wrote a review for this awesome game and now I will solve this overdue problem. The handling of the cars is easy enough that when my son was three years old he played this and it quickly became his favorite. There are twelve cars to choose from, seven tracks but the Winter Wasteland is just the first track Wasteland with snow. There is single player and multiplayer. In Multiplayer there is ranked and unranked options. In Unranked racing by time or kills is selectable. There are three difficulty levels. The multiplayer is pretty empty but that just means you arrange games with friends and the steam group for this game. Each car has three weapons and has a nitro boost. A front weapon, a side weapon, and a rear weapon. Use the appropriate weapon to attack cars that are near you. To win kills are more important than placing at the end of the race. When driving around the tracks your car can collect barrels of the appropriate color for each weapon by driving through them to collect them then you choose them when cars are near you. For viewing the rear window pressing down lets one peak out the back window to see how close the other cars are. Sadly there is no local co-op but that is okay as there is multiplayer. My son doesn't like to play multiplayer too often with me as he is five and likes to win, but it is still fun in my opinion. Buy the game you will not be disappointed! If you are hesitant by it on sale and enjoy a wonderful awesome game!
While a little floaty at times, the game is a lot of fun to play. A lot of variety between the different vehicles, some challenging and fun maps, and the satisfying visual effects all add up to help make this game a blast. It's a shame it didn't stand the test of time, or get more awareness, because it's so much fun.
A decent racing-themed car brawler where the aim (in the main game modes) is to blow up opposing racers as many times as possible within a time limit by picking up bonuses from the track which enable you to use one of your three combat abilities, which for multiplayer purposes seem pretty unbalanced between the cars, but for single player interest there is a fair range of different preferences catered for - you have cars (trucks, ice cream vans) whose best weapons are laid like mines ahead of the enemy racers, others that need to be adjacent to the target for best (or only) results, and others that attack from behind, with a couple with a mix of options.
The racing, particularly single player isn't too great, the controls aren't the smoothest and most of the time where you placed in the race is irrelevant compared to how much mayhem you inflicted - racing far ahead is usually easy, even on the tougher difficulties of most tracks, but means you will have no one around to attack, thus guaranteeing a loss, so the main advantage is first choice of which bonus to pick up before moving to the appropriate position to use it.
The tracks have a reasonable variety, which a strong preference for lots of jumps and other risky locations to crash and burn, either unaided or with some help from your friendly competition, but the directions are well signposted so the learning curve of new tracks isn't too steep in most cases. The graphics are servicable enough but not amazing, and audio does the job well enough.
So overall it is a bit of fun, but be aware the multiplayer side of things is sparse (if that) unless you bring your own, and even if you do don't expect a fair fight, but nevertheless it is a reasonable game.
I remember when i bought this back in 2011. And god how i loved this game. But the sad thing about this now is: Its almost completely dead online. But if you have friends who own this game already or if you can bring them to buy it. Then you can have much fun with it. I only can recommend the Game.
Prepare to go HAM in PAM.
Awesome as hell car combat racer You can freeze cars, drill cars, shoot cars, drop oil slicks, burn cars, and, yes, even attack them with deadly flamigos. However, its not all fun and explosions, as there isn't a lot of "game" to play and trying to find a random multiplayer game is like trying to find a strawberry field in the middle of an apocalyptic desert. With that said, this is a great game to pick-up if you can find it on a good sale...but may not be worth the full price tag.
First and foremost I strongly disagree with the metascore, strongly.
If I were to describe this game in just one word I'd without a doubt FUNNY.
Despite having less tracks than I'd want it is a blast to play with friends, and it's not expensive.
I really like how the powerup system was made and it never gets boring to explode other cars.
If you like this kind of racing games give it a shot!
*If you intend to play it online alone I have to say that you'll have a hard time finding people playing except during sales. If you have 2 friends grab a 3-Pack and enjoy!
Pink flamingos as a weapon? 10/10
Craziest weapon selection in a computer game ever! This game is not about racing. It's about war!
This one was once a small little gem, that was sadly overlooked and suffered from race quitters in it's multiplayer times. The game looks nice with a cool aesthetic and a good driving feeling. On release there were only three maps available which were fun to play. Thank to the devs a free DLC was released adding new content like two new maps and three new cars. The cars are well balanced starting from small fast ones to big slower ones. All cars have a front, side and a back attack. Every car has its unique crazy weapons which are activated by collecting power-up barrels on the race track. All weapons are fun and you should definitely try out all the cars with their weapons to better choose what car is best for you.
If this game is on a sale grab it! You won't regret it. Even if mulitplayer is dead now you will enjoy the single player long enough.
Picked up this game for very cheap during a Steam sale. Suffice to say it is very bery boring, repetitive, and overly simplistic. I found the gameplay and racing to wear out after a few races. It had no replayability and the vehicles/abilities were uninteresting. I do not recommend getting this, even if it is a dollar.
I try and find the cheapest, wort games possible on steam and buy them for my friends. I saw this little gem and assumed it would fall into that category; I was wrong. PAM has a superb soundtrack for the type of game it is combined with chaotic multiplayer fun at an affordable price. However, if you don't have any friends to play with, I'd say pass.
Have you ever watched the movie The Road Warrior? Have you ever watched the climatic, carnage-filled final chase scene and thought, "Man, I wish I could do that!"? Have you ever secretly fapped to that scene? If you answered yes to either or both of those last two questions, you might want to check out this game before seeking professional help.
Post Apocalyptic Mayhem is not a great racing game. Nor is it a great smah 'em up. But it is a decent hybrid of those two genres that provides some easy to get into and humorous fun (any game that has a metal version of 'Jingle Bells' in the set list gets a smile from me). There's a handful of cars, a handful of tracks and a couple of different play modes that provides some variety. That said, I don't think there's enough to justify the normal full price of the game. Pick it up on sale.
I bought this game for me and my friends on sale... was it worth it?
Definitely if you are playing with friends. By yourself, it's not bad - provides entertainment but typical gamers may come back to this once in a while once they've beaten it. I found myself playing it more with friends than by myself.
The game play is quite simple, you have three types of attacks, forward attack, back/rear, and sides. Then there is a boost button. Does it matter what place you come in? Well that's up to you to choose what kind of game mode you want. Are the attacks fun, unique from car to car? Yes they are, and the game even provides opportunities to unlock some cars. If you are looking for a real racing game, don't look here. This is more carnage/weapons focused rather than crash-em sort of style.
This game isn't quite burnout or flatout, but still provides some arcade fun with friends. Buy on sale.

I should have written a review for this game ages ago. I am completely in awe of this game and I am so addicted to it. I love how the races always seem different even though I may use the same car with their own unique weapons. Every race is so unpredictable and you never know what's going to happen. This is a good distraction game for me and it makes me feel incredibly happy playing it. I can kill my opponents without the risk of getting arrested! Lol. Great music tracks to each race in the apocalyptic challenge mode as well as various cars with extremely powerful weapons. Some cars are better than others but I like to play with them all to make it even and challenge myself even more. You can play on easy which is not as easy as you would imagine but a good place to start if you are playing it for the first time. I like playing on hard. I love the challenges of the hard mode. What can I say. Good graphics, music, gameplay and interest. I would definitely recommend this game to anyone who is interested in buying it. If you like fun and a challenge or 2, then this game is for you. You need to be on the ball and kill your opponents in order to get the most kills if that's what you like. There is no escape! I would say that it's sometimes difficult to play in multiplayer if you can't get any players to join but it's a good excuse to get your friends to buy it too! Thanks to the developers of PAM, you rock!!
It is not bad game, I like action and speed on this game, but there are not many people playing it, so you usually stuck in single player which can be boring. Also it is very pitty that you cant customize your own cars, only have to choose one from six or seven? cars. Graphic is ok, music can be better, but in general, I recommended this game, you will have lot of fun with it but it was close rating. Multiplayer is fun, I like it, but you can consider yourself as lucky playing it with more than 3 person online.
This game is surprisingly fun for its metascore. It has a Rock N Roll racing, arcade style feel because you have to pick up weapons from the track and the focus is on competing for those powerups and killing your opponents. However, its not a racing game. First place is measured by kills, so pulling ahead of your opponents where its difficult to damage them, actually results in a loss. The game needs some balance between racing and being a meat grinder, otherwise theres no reason to follow a course at all, just make it thunderdome.
6/10 ok for the price
Is this the best shooting racer in the world?
Probably not.
Is this game a whole lot of fun with a lot of replay value?
Hell yeah!
If you have a controller, grab this and put it up on "Big Picture" mode.
It's not twisted metal... but it's still a lot off fun. You have limited weapons and limited use of them. Which to me doesn't exactly spell MAYHEM... but it does teach you to be a little more strategic. It could definitely use a few arena type maps or modes. It's great to play with friends and blast them to kingdom come! Definitely worth throwing a few (insert currency here) at!
I love this game!!! The best is: no communication. So the brainless kids can't flame. You just feel how they cry cause of rage. XD
Aaargggh, too much bloom effects !! That was my first impression when I first started playing this game. For a brand new game, with decent graphics, nothing high end, why use this much bloom ? Anyway, it's a bit like Wipeout, or Carmageddon without the pedestrian killing. You race around and try to kill each other. There are power-ups to be collected and they're specific to the car you're driving. So one car drops mines, the other shoots chemicals for example. Using the same power-up. It's pretty fun. But to be honest, there are better games around.
