You can murder the entire competition on the first 3 races, but I can't quite murder 9 people on the last one. I have to actually run.

Beat the game now, never having used 'catch breath' in a winning run. Don't waste your money on that skill whatsoever.

You know what I love in a racing game? Having every possible upgrade available and placing last, again and again and again because of RNG. It seems like if you use 'catch breath' even once you can not place first. Why is this in the game at all?

The communism theme adds nothing to the game, especially when it's often so inaccurate. Why does competition include Kafka, Churchill, Coolidge, Stalin and Hegel? It's like the author looked up "names sorta kinda related to socialism." It would make more sense if all the racers were socialist, all the opponents were capitalists, or all the racers were philosophers. And why does Marx represent the judging officials? Wouldn't Stalin make more sense for that? Besides the nonsensical theme, the gameplay is alright. It's another "grind for all the upgrades" flash game. I really like the idea of a racing game that isn't about getting turns right or avoiding obstacles, it's just choosing when to make decisions about how to screw over your opponents. Having characters running towards the screen is weird, and sometimes makes things like proximity to other racers hard to judge.

Tip: It's often helpful to run a mace you can easily win a couple extra times for some extra cash. The 3rd race is bump up in difficulty from the 2nd, so rerun the 2nd a few times for easier 4k cash.

Sir, we found the other competitors. Everybody in the glorious race has been shivved except for ONE competitor. We know what that means..

Good game, but there is a huge problem; THE STAB IS REALLY UNBALANCED! If you make a sequel, you should probably nerf the stab. Just saying.

Party Officials: What!?! You stabbed 5 innocent people!?! Now you must stop running for a few seconds as your ultimate punishment.

Reading these filthy capitalist comments makes me sick! Who needs to harm their comrades or stab them in order to win? That's not the socialist way! True way to win game for glorious motherland is via running swiftly, and taunting your comrades!
...also, using salutes, donations, and scolding to help the party officials catch your dirty cheating comrades! Why are they running faster than me when I've got every upgrade? We should all run equally!

This is brilliant!
The game mechanics are fun but the references are shivving! ;-)
I love how Milton Friedman (!!!), Luther, Mussolini and couple of US presidents are among other socialists! XD
This is totally confusing people! :P

Beat the game without buying even a single level of Kick, Bite, or Shiv. Sure, I bribed the judges and was particularly rude to my fellow comrade runners, but hurting people simply isn't necessary.

I've read in the past that the USSR was a very corrupt bureaucratic kleptocracy, where it's nigh impossible to get many things done without bribery, favors or intimidation. I wonder how much like that it still is? I wonder what present or former residents of Russia would have to say about this game?

Start of game: I should train hard and be faster than everyone else. End of game: Cheat, cheat, cheat, and throw in some capitol crimes for good measure.
