Carotic: Academic Version

Carotic: Academic Version is a top-down 3D couch co-op game for 2–4 players. Each player controls a car in a busy city and tries to blend in with NPC traffic while identifying the other players. Dash into opponents to destroy them and score points; the player with the most points when time runs out wins.

Hide and seek

In Hide and Seek, you search for the other competitors and dash into them to score points. A hit destroys the target, who respawns after a short timer. Dashing into NPC cars does not cost points, but its particle effect and speed boost can reveal your car.

Game modes

Several modes add objectives and hazards to the core hide-and-seek play:

• Reach the Goals: Circles of particles spawn at random on the map. Driving through one earns points and gives players a shared reason to gather in the same area.
• Destroy the Town: One random building at a time can be destroyed by dashing into it. Destroying it earns points, drawing players toward that location.
• KRAKATTACK: A kraken attacks the town, and players can dash into its tentacles to drive them back into the water. The monster can destroy players by slamming down on them, while randomly striking lightning also destroys players who are too close to where it hits.
• Free for All Race: Players race on a separate map, with no hiding or seeking. Alongside the dash, they can choose events to gain an advantage, including destroying buildings to make shortcuts, sending a bus through traffic, dropping a crate from a crane and spawning a boat that jumps onto the street and destroys everything in its path.
