Our take on Impulse Revolution
The focus on shared local play keeps the format centered on a single screen and supports up to 4 players. That emphasis leaves less room for a solo campaign structure; the listed modes instead provide varied local competitions and minigames.
What is Impulse Revolution?
Impulse Revolution is a physics-based racing game where players control air-hockey pucks in a neon-themed setting.
It offers several race modes and minigames, with bots available in every mode. Classic racing combines track hazards with weapons, while Elimination has up to 4 pucks competing on one screen in rounds. In Hunter, one puck tries to convert the others, which must flee. Chain Gang pairs teammates with a chain linking their pucks. Minigames include Pass the Bomb, Sumo, Line Runner, Bombardment, and Ping.
