About the Game

Absurd Racing Adventure about a car with legs!

An absurdly silly adventure full of racing, laughs, and unexpected surprises. Roll, sprint jump, fly and sneeze your way to victory on the racetrack and beyond!

🐻 NOT YOUR TYPICAL RACING GAME

You’re a car with legs! Race through hundreds of unique levels: jump, fly with jetpacks, climb tall buildings, deliver packages, and so pretty much everything you can’t do in a normal racing game.

Hint: Look for hidden shortcuts and try to avoid explosives

🌍 A WORLD TO EXPLORE

It’s not all about the need for speed. Explore the many islands to meet new friends, find hidden treasures or solve quirky puzzles. Hint: Look behind the waterfalls!

🎢 CREATE YOUR OWN LEVELS

Make your own wacky levels, share them with friends and family, or climb the leaderboards of quirky levels made by other players.

Hint: Adding cute bears and speed pads that go vroom works every time!

🍔 OKAY, IT GETS REALLY SILLY

You’ll be flipping burgers, fishing, swimming, and singing CAR-aoke!

Hint: Don’t talk to the laser cow

🚨 DISCLAIMER:

This game is for entertainment purposes only and will absolutely not improve your driving skills in any way. If anything it’ll make you worse. No one on the development team even owns a car. What the hell is a clutch?

💣 SPOILER ALERT:

ALERT: A spoiler is apparently a thing you can attach to the back of a car to make it look cool… Who knew?!

About Developer

Based in Copenhagen, Triband is an attention-seeking orchestra of people who want to make the world laugh with silly and surprising comedy games. Their first game WHAT THE GOLF? was a bona fide indie hit and won numerous awards, including ‘Best Mobile Game’ at the 2020 Game Developers Choice Awards and ‘Best Comedy Game’ at the 2019 PC Gamer Awards. WHAT THE BAT? was their second opus, a VR comedy game about going through life with baseball bats for hands. Their newly released game WHAT THE CAR? stars a yellow car doing its very best to fit in. The team knows nothing about golf, finds baseball pointless, and doesn’t care about car racing.
