Armageddon Riders is a fast-paced vehicular combat video game produced by Targem Games [1]. The protagonist survived a catastrophe of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), while everyone else in the city has been transformed into a bloodthirsty zombie. He returns to the abandoned city, looking for a way to change the zombies...

Outrageous speed, rivers of blood, brutal cars, equipped with instruments of destruction: spikes, saws and blades, and don't forget the boosters. Hundreds of hungry zombies roam the streets, jumping on cars and trying to get to the drivers. To survive there and return to tell the tale is a real challenge [2].

In Armageddon Riders, the player races a vehicle against a number of other computer controlled competitors in various settings, including city, harbour and Large Hadron Collider areas.

Key features:
