Crumple Zone

Crumple Zone is an arcade crash-racing game inspired by car-smashing games of the 1990s and 2000s.

Play arcade mode to earn customization items for your stock car, or take on single-player championships linked by a story and visual-novel-style cutscenes. The game also includes two-player split-screen play and a real-time vehicle damage model.
