Overview
Roundabout is the debut title from No Goblin, a studio founded by Dan Teasdale and Panzer.
In Roundabout, the player needs to pick up passengers and drive them to their destinations. The catch: the limousine is constantly spinning in circles! To move around in Roundabout, the player needs to time the limousine's movement with the constant rotation in order to curve around obstacles, buildings, and more.
Set in 1977, Roundabout tells the rise to fame story of Georgio Manos, arguably the world's most famous revolving chauffeur. While driving players around the town of Roundabout, players will learn about the dizzying highs, terrifying lows, and secret loves of a revolving limousine driver. They'll experience the seventies in the only authentic way possible: with full motion video set in the interior of a limousine.
