In-Game

Test your friendship in Backseat Drivers, the ultimate co-op driving disaster. One drives, one yells directions, and your car belongs in the junkyard. Smash, shunt, and crash your way around as you yeet into every possible obstacle. Yelling is inevitable. Apologies are optional. The car is terrible.
