What is Steel Rats™?
This single-player, side-scrolling action platformer takes place in an alternate 1940s United States, where a biker gang defends Coastal City from alien robots. You navigate rooftop and tunnel levels, jump gaps, ride up walls, and fight with bike-mounted weapons, switching among four riders with different abilities and equipment.
For you if...
- +you enjoy physics-based stunt riding mixed with vehicle combat
Not for you if...
- −you want straightforward racing rather than platforming and combat
What players say

Players praise the visual style, retro-futuristic setting, and motorcycle-combat concept. Their most common complaint is complicated, unresponsive controls that make traversal and fighting awkward, even with a controller.
