Reception

Cooperative RC car gameplay in a house full of experiments is great fun, but only if you can find a partner. The game lacks a single-player mode, which significantly limits its audience.

As a budget title of just £15.99 I have to give WheelMates some credit. It comes with a Friend’s Pass, and while it didn’t blow either myself or my co-op partner away, we did have fun. While it’s got a few issues, there were plenty of collectibles to go back and find, so it’s certainly a decent amount of bang for your buck and a reasonably entertaining...

WheelMates feels like one good level for Split Fiction that was stretched into a full game for some reason. There's a strong sense of a shortage of interesting co-op activities for the RC cars.

WheelMates is certainly entertaining for a couple of evenings, but it's sorely lacking in its own unique features and falls flat compared to the other co-op games that are plentiful these days.
