In an alternate 1940s-inspired Coastal City, the Steel Rats biker gang fights an invasion by mechanical Junkbots. You control a rider who stays on their motorcycle as they move through the city’s streets, rooftops, and tunnels.
The side-scrolling action combines motorcycle traversal, platforming, stunts, and combat. Ride up walls, jump and flip across hazards, and attack robots with wheel-mounted saws and other weapons while navigating multi-level routes.
Choose among four riders and switch between them during play; each has a distinct ability and weapon-equipped bike. Levels include hidden collectibles, optional objectives, areas to unlock, and leaderboard challenges.
Reviews praise the unusual motorcycle-centered action and the retro-futuristic visual style, with some players enjoying the level design, character switching, and the feel of stunts and combat once the controls click. These positives are often tempered by complaints about unintuitive controls and inconsistent bike physics; reactions to the gameplay vary.
