Have you ever wanted to feel the wind in your hair as you pedaled through the city streets, taking on deliveries with lightning speed? Parcel Corps from Billy Goat Entertainment puts you in the saddle of a lovingly rendered bicycle to experience the hustle and fun of urban couriering.

As a player, you’ll join one of three delivery corporations and work your way up from new recruit to top dog. Each company features their own roster of quirky characters to embody. Then it’s off to the open-world maps, where local businesses serve as your clients. Scanning QR codes around town signs them up for the delivery service, unlocking challenges to prove your worth.

Once a client is on board, you can take on parcel jobs against the clock. Rushing between drop-offs builds your reputation, opening new areas to explore on the dual-analogue controls. Pedaling is intuitive, but mastering tricks, drifts, and wall rides takes practice. Thankfully, each new sector introduces obstacles at a steady clip. Before long, zipping between shortcuts feels as natural as ignoring that morning coffee.

Between runs, customizing your bicycle awaits. While upgrades only alter appearance, sprucing up your ride is half the fun. And when inspiration strikes, hop online to show off your skills or chase high scores together. So saddle up and prepare for pulsing gameplay perfect for both brief bursts and lengthy sessions across Parcel Corps’ beautifully hand-drawn city.

Rolling Out the Characters

Taking on the role of a fearless cycle courier, Parcel Corps invites you into a lively world with an amusing narrative behind it all. The story kicks off by choosing between one of three delivery corporations to sign your services over to. From there, you pick your preferred peddler from an eccentric cast of characters dressed for the open road. Then the fun truly begins as you set off shaping your new career.

Billy Goat Entertainment packs each environment with colorful locals serving as missionaries. From quirky business owners requesting goods transport to dissident collectives sending you on side missions, cutscenes bring this menagerie to vibrant life. Voice acting across the board feels lively, putting real personality behind interactions. Character designs exhibit a zany streak too, outfitting all in head-turning cycling gear that puts practicality second to self-expression.

Throughout, the story doesn’t take itself too seriously. Between missions, bite-sized TV segments skewer current events with satirical flair. The in-game news provides comedic social commentary on issues like automation and workers’ rights through the lens of your courier crew’s exploits. While the overarching plot stays light, these touches inject some wink-worthy world-building between bursts of gameplay.

While narrative alone won’t consume heavy hours, the story presents a fun backdrop that deepens the atmosphere. Aligning with rebellious crews unlocking underground routes, for instance, makes freewheeling around each new town feel livelier. Character designs also breed attachment through their quirks. Overall, Parcel Corps blends just enough story with gameplay to keep players invested in advancing their career and touring every location. The campaign brings a jovial spirit throughout that reflects the joy of simply riding.

Riding the Routes of Parcel Corps

At its core, Parcel Corps revolves around hitting the streets on a two-wheeled truck. Starting out, the basics keep it simple: guiding your bicycle through colorful neighborhoods with thumbsticks while mashing buttons to pedal. But don’t let the laidback ride fool you. Mastering tricks and combos requires perfecting drifts, manuals, and air rotations.

Parcel Corps Review

Progress stems from signing up storefronts by scanning signs or finishing quick jobs. Small tasks introduce concepts like fragility or time limits. With each new client, their daily deliveries expand your skills and city access. Handling shifts too from sluggish to buttery smooth as open areas give way to tightknit grids.

Where the gameplay shines most are the Rush events. Here, a timer pushes you to zip between as many timed jobs as plausible. Juggling parcels amid speeding traffic demands quick thinking. Selecting delivery routes on the fly adds suspense—will shortcuts save seconds or end in crashes? Scoring highly unlocks story beats, increasing stakes with each progressive zone.

Elsewhere, versatile missions provide variety. From dodging drones to pasting posters, objectives break routine. Cops even chase lawbreakers, forcing risky getaways. Replaying alters objectives to surprise veterans. Meanwhile, the cell phone brings modern flair—maps grant overview while mini-games fill idle waits.

While some sessions feel the same, enough randomizations and custom goals fuel multiple replays. Upgrading cosmetics just for fun extends lifespan. Overall, Parcel Corps forgoes complications for streamlined arcade enjoyment on the move. Its loop grows hypnotic, forever pulling one more delivery shift.

Rolling with the Art of Parcel Corps

The hand-drawn styling gives Parcel Corps a lively look. Choosing cel shading over realism pays off, lending the world a cartoon vitality that fits like a glove. Whether cruising urban centers or countryside lanes, every setting bursts with colorful quirk.

Parcel Corps Review

Character designs prove just as charming. Vibrant costumes paired with expressive animations bring each courier to vibrant life. Subtle motions, from fidgeting at stops to triumphant poses after tricks, give the bike-mounted crew plenty of personality. Technical hiccups do occasionally mar the proceedings, with minor pop-in or fuzzy textures. Yet fast movement means such blemishes are easy to overlook as focus shifts to the fun.

Sound equally shines. Upbeat tracks are pumping enthusiasm as shops sign on. Audio cues give precision feedback on stunts, from grinding grit to airy hops. Best of all are the upbeat vocal performances. Witty client requests along delivery routes engage to the fullest. Even amid gameplay’s more repetitive elements, quality voice acting lends constant levity.

Together, Parcel Corps’ visual and sonic stylings immerse deep in a spirited world. Art builds an atmosphere of perpetual, playful motion that mirrors the core cycling gameplay. Bumps disappear beneath infectious energy and heart wherever looked. In crafting such an inviting package that lifts spirits matching its heart-pumping delivery, the presentation proves as praiseworthy as the pulse-pounding play.

Tweaking Two-Wheeled Style

While others zip past on stock bikes, nothing says you’ve made the big time quite like custom paint. Parcel Corps allows putting your own spin on rides through part swapping. From fresh frames and seats to wild paint jobs, options offer ways to stand out in the courier crowd.

Parcel Corps Review

Though changes affect looks alone, appearance holds value. Bikes act as profile banners, announcing your style and skill level. Bolder colors or rarer parts stir envy among rookie riders. Bikes also link to feelings, with tweaks shaping a bond to your trusted steel steed.

Still, customization remains shallow due to impacts stopping at aesthetics. Fancier wheels or suspension bring no on-road edge, removing motivation to grind for coin. Had parts boosted speed or handling, they’d feel worth unlocking.

Opportunity existed here to spice gameplay. Rare components could permanently boost stats. Timed tricks or stunt runs would provide new ways to earn muscle-ups. Even swapping parts mid-delivery adds tension.

Overall cosmetic focus underplays customization’s potential. Deeper tweaking represents a missed chance to lengthen engagement and motivation. With refinement, custom bikes could emerge as a core, not cosmetic, element, so their real impact matches their showy visuals.

Pedaling into Player vs. Player

While most enjoy Parcel Corps’ solo spins, two-wheeled competition beckons the daring. Answer that siren call by matching speeds with real rivals online. Conceptually, multiplayer holds potential—what’s more thrilling than vying for top courier? But in practice, peer play presents issues.

Parcel Corps Review

Joining friends requires patience, with long waits common to even find fellow riders. Lobbies lack organization too, mashing skill levels together. Once paired, modes feel limited—only Delivery Rushes or races currently satisfy. Greater variety could lend longevity, like synchronous drop-offs or police chase showdowns.

Yet without stat-tracking or incentive, player motivation wavers. Leaders lack bragging rights beyond brief numeric displays. Cooperative jobs or leaderboards might energize competition. More substantial unlocks for dedicated racers could then justify matchmaking’s effort.

When all stars align and peers are found, online provides a rush indeed. Zipping shoulder-to-shoulder through hectic streets brings new tactical layers. But too often, the wait outlasts the reward. With smoother finding and progression systems, multiplayer may prove a true reason to return after single races are run. For now, its sparks hint at promise—left hoping future polish brings the lightning.

Pedaling to a Verdict

Parcel Corps delivers an enjoyable experience for aspiring cycle couriers. Its hand-drawn visuals and upbeat soundtrack set the stage for pulsing gameplay where zipping urban streets feels truly exhilarating. Signing businesses and undertaking an array of missions makes each delivery distinctive, even when repetition settles in.

Parcel Corps Review

Core cycling and trick mechanics prove instantly satisfying thanks to tight handling. Progressing to new neighborhoods then presents challenges that maintain fun-focused difficulty. Characters leave memorable marks too with quirky faults and charms. While narrative serves lightly, it lends personality in smaller ways.

Unfortunately, flaws hold Parcel Corps back from greatness. Lackluster multiplayer and barebones customization truncate potential. Bugs likewise mar smoothness at times. Yet short play sessions remain a consistent delight, proving this parcel pushers’ paradise achieves adventurous arcade joy.

For thrill-seeking couriers of average journeys, Parcel Corps earns a recommendation. Just don’t expect the fullest package. But few deliveries feel as lively, so hop in the saddle and hit the streets and shortcuts, and you’ll find fun worth pedaling for.

The Review

Parcel Corps

7 Score

Parcel Corps succeeds in delivering lively gameplay focused squarely on zipping through colorful cities on two fast-paced wheels. While its narrative and progression systems could use more polish, the moment-to-moment thrills of weaving through traffic and chaining tricks give plenty of enjoyment for arcade fans looking for a lighthearted romp. Bugs hold it back from greatness, but not fun—for a pulse-pumping pedal around town, Parcel Corps hits the brief.

PROS

  • Tight, responsive cycling and trick mechanics
  • Colorful, hand-drawn art style and lively soundtrack

  • Engaging gameplay loop of signing clients and competing in delivery rushes

CONS
