Backseat Drivers takes the classic idea of co-op and turns it upside down. You and your partner aren’t working side by side—you’re trapped in a car that barely functions, performing entirely different roles with no overlap. One player has full visual control but no interaction with the vehicle. The other has the wheel, the pedals, and no idea where anything is. The only thing connecting you is voice—your timing, your trust, and how fast you can interpret frantic shouting.
The World Is Falling Apart—So Is Your Car
The road ahead is unpredictable, and the car you’re driving is barely holding together. No trip is smooth. You’ll find yourself in ridiculous situations: losing the steering wheel mid-turn, replacing headlights with lightbulbs you found on the floor, or jamming random items into the dashboard just to make the brakes respond.
Tools, Hazards, and Chaos You’ll Encounter
· Limited visibility for the driver
· Voice-based commands from the passenger
· Interchangeable car parts with wild effects
· Random terrain changes and environmental obstacles
· Unlockable upgrades that rarely behave how you expect
Together, these features create a system where precision driving meets total absurdity.
Coordination Over Speed
Unlike traditional racing games, speed in Backseat Drivers is not your goal—it’s your enemy. The faster you go, the harder it is to react to instructions. The game rewards patience, teamwork, and the occasional argument over what “slightly left” really means. Miscommunication isn’t a bug—it’s the core challenge. You’ll yell, you’ll panic, and sometimes you’ll get it just right. And in those moments, when everything clicks, you’ll feel like champions of the world’s most dysfunctional vehicle.
A Journey Built From Mistakes
Backseat Drivers isn’t about perfection. It’s about finding rhythm in failure. As you unlock new parts and travel through stranger locations, your car becomes more of a character than a machine. You begin to recognize every strange sound it makes and every shortcut that almost works. It’s not just a drive—it’s a relationship test, a comedy routine, and a puzzle game disguised as a road trip. And no matter how many times it breaks down, you’ll want to keep going. Together.
