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.
Push Square: 6 / 10 by Phil Kennedy
Roundabout would probably work better as a PlayStation Vita game, which you could jump into for five minutes while you're riding the tube, bus, or a perpetually rotating limousine. Fortunately, the game was announced for the handheld last year, so hopefully that version still comes to fruition. On the PlayStation 4, there's definitely still fun to be found in this highly stylised game, but the novelty soon wears off if you play it in long bursts.

It's a very silly game indeed but there's a sweetness at its centre that would put even the finest fondant to shame. Through all the raised eyebrows, ill-fitting costumes and fluffed lines, Roundabout has a sincerity that makes me happy to recommend it to anyone, even if it did fool me into playing a puzzle game.
Digital Spy: 4 / 5 by Scott Nichols
Roundabout is simply overflowing with personality, offering the best bad acting around and clever missions that even make the aggravating city exploration worth plodding through.
