If you’re looking for something completely ridiculous, the Barro series is worth a shot. Yes, the games are a bit rubbish - but they’re fun rubbish. With silly racecourses, simple graphics, and seemingly unintended over-the-top chaos, it’s the kind of game that doesn’t take itself seriously, or does it? For half a dollar, it’s hard to complain, especially since it made me laugh out loud more than once.

I’ve also tried Barro F and Barro GT. Barro F is a little less wacky, though it still features tracks with deadly drops that will have your car exploding and then placing you back on the course again. Repeatedly, so it’s not exactly tame. If you want something closer to realism (and I use that word loosely), Barro GT is your best bet. Its tracks don’t feel like they were designed to kill you, which is as close to “realistic” as this series gets.

The games are basic, both in graphics and gameplay, but we know what they are: cheap, silly fun. The humor comes from the absurdity of it all. It’s not about polished mechanics or deep gameplay, it’s about having a laugh, and for the price, it delivers on that.

I started collecting games on Steam as a hobby and plan to publish my own game someday. Exploring titles like this helps me understand what kind of games people might enjoy at different price points. If you’ve got a sense of humour and don’t mind a little chaos, I’d recommend giving Barro a try. Just don’t expect anything more than pure, unpolished silliness, while not going full out introducing cartoon characters that eat you or giant traps. Silliness with a sense that it was meant to be sensible 20 years ago, maybe. Perhaps that was why it really made me laugh.
