Backseat Drivers is a chaotic two-player experience where cooperation is the only way to survive. The car may look like a rusty heap, but it still runs—barely. One player takes the wheel but can’t see the road, while the other watches the path ahead but can’t touch the controls. Between mismatched directions, panicked turns, and malfunctioning car parts, your only chance of finishing the trip is by shouting faster than the car breaks.
Every journey begins with hope and ends with confusion. The car constantly throws mechanical surprises at both of you: pedals fall off, engines catch fire, doors fly open mid-ride. The world outside is no friend either, with highways collapsing, traffic piling up, and suspicious tunnels leading into who-knows-what. You’ll need to improvise solutions using whatever junk you can find, because proper tools were never part of the package.
Your ability to coordinate quickly—and argue effectively—will determine whether you cross the finish line or explode halfway there.
Backseat Drivers doesn’t punish failure—it turns it into fuel. Every crash, missed turn, or misinterpreted yell becomes part of the journey. The game leans into the ridiculousness of human error, inviting players to find rhythm in chaos. Maybe the steering wheel is missing, maybe the brakes are gone, maybe the driver thought “left” meant “stop”—it doesn’t matter. What matters is that you keep going, rebuild what breaks, and try not to laugh so hard you forget what you were doing.
As you progress, more bizarre upgrades become available. You can mix and match parts to suit your playstyle—or make things worse, just for the challenge. The deeper you go into this adventure, the more the car feels like a shared creature that you both feed and fight against. Backseat Drivers transforms a terrible vehicle into a stage for creativity, comedy, and chaos. No two runs are the same, but every one is unforgettable—especially if grandma’s still behind the wheel.
