Demolition Racer: No Exit is a combination of standard racing and demolition derby arenas,
similar in presentation to San Francisco Rush 2049. DR: No Exit doesn't have shortcuts, though.
The racing portion has 15 easy, non-twisty tracks that allow for more intense car-to-car ramming
action than would be possible if you had to focus too much on steering tight turns (i.e. Road
Rash).
Surprisingly for this type of game, invincibility and endurance power-ups are incorporated into
the game play.
One of the game's best features is the chicken mode, where drivers are going in both directions
around the tracks, making head-on collisions a real risk.
Several more features can be unlocked, as described on page 28 of the manual. Too many games
never tell you how to unlock features, much less what is available to unlock. This is not one of
those games, and it deserves points for that.
Still, the game does not provide a memorable experience. While there are no deep flaws, the
game is basically mediocre in the end.
