About the Game

Hyperdrive Massacre is an 80s inspired local multiplayer fragfest for up to 4 players. Players take control of a space cadillac and frag their way to victory against friends or can also play against AI. Both modes allow players to unlock a full crew roster. Submachine guns, sniper rifles, frag grenades, homing missiles and bullet deflectors are just some of the tools player can use to create havoc.

Note: this game requires a Controller to play.


Hperdrive Massacre is best played on a couch. Although its content is family-friendly, it also makes for an excellent drinking game.
