Roundabout is a light and unique game, in which we enter into the skin of a crazy driver. The creators put at our disposal an open world in the 70's of the 20th century, where we move around using a llimuzine that rotates continuously around its own axis.
Take a trip with Georgio Manos, the world's first revolving chauffeur, as he spins and twists his way through the open world of Roundabout.
Roundabout is focused on the 1977 rise to fame story of Georgio Manos, the world's first revolving chauffeur. Players control Georgio as he spins passengers through the ridiculously twisty streets and back alleys that the town of Roundabout is famous for.
Mechanically, Roundabout is a multilayered take on open world exploration, streak based scoring, and puzzle traversal. That means developer put games like Crazy Taxi, Tony Hawk, Kuru Kuru Kururin, and about a dozen other inspirations in a blender, then molded result into the shape of a constantly rotating '70s limousine.

- Play as Georgio Manos, the world's first revolving chauffeur

Game Ratings for Roundabout Video Game.
4 Guys with Quarters: 9 / 10 by Carlo De Leoni
The two-man dev team at No Goblin created the most original, the most unique and the most crazy absurd thing I have seen in video game history – and it’s amazing. In the first few minutes of gameplay I was Georgio, the driver of a spinning limousine, en route to picking up customers with crazy missions. This limousine spins while you dodge traffic, hit a few pedestrians, and avoid other objects.
Destructoid: 7.5 / 10 by Brett Makedonski
While those complaints are niggling to perfectionists, it's not the takeaway here. What's remarkable is that No Goblin took what had all the makings of a gimmick mechanic and turned it into something that feels like a legitimately useful staple, something that requires patience and skill to figure out. Roundabout manages to be simultaneously cumbersome and stiff, and brilliant and endearing -- chances are you'll go 'round and 'round. Actually, that's precisely what you'll do.
GameSpot: 8 / 10 by Britton Peele
Roundabout's story is short-lived, but it's jam-packed with humor and crazy, quirky action.
