LONDON - It's that time of the week again to down tools and relax. Revolution's Game of the Week is here to ease your way into the weekend before the fireworks fun begins. This week's game is a racer from the BBC, as chosen by Kerb managing director and Revolution gaming expert Jim McNiven.

This week's game is technically accomplished and features one of the best uses of Papervision3D (where Flash is used to create 3D environments). It features Radio 1 DJ's aand puts them into a Mario Kart-esque driving game

The game is a time challenge and once you select a DJ Driver (and if they happen to be on air at the time you get a turbo boost at the start of the race) you select a course and away you go. The idea is to race through the highlighted circles while also trying to beat your opponent. It's not brain taxing but ideal for a bit of end-of-week gaming fun.

The game was built by 4T2 who seem to be doing amazing work at the minute.
