The limo itself is the star, a living puzzle wrapped in FMV glitz that players can’t stop praise. Nearly every other word in reviews sings its praises.

What it's about: Drive a constantly spinning limousine around town! Roundabout is a '70s B-Movie game where you pick up passengers, find secret collectibles, take on dangerous missions, and fall in love in a far out open world puzzle adventure - all while driving a revolving limo!
