Howl like a banshee down twisting, turning tracks from icy Scandinavian glacial death traps to treacherous mountain courses and blazing Egyptian desert spinouts. Realistic car physics mean you feel every inch of the road, every ounce of centrifugal force, and every bug dumb enough to get in your way...

Don't bother to buckle up. When you're flying behind the wheel of your customized super-fast high performance car, whiplash is the least of your worries. Don't feel ashamed if you let loose with a scream every once in awhile...
Six winding, wildly dangerous tracks with varying levels of difficulty, terrain, driving conditions and configurations.
Power to customize up to 20 high performance race cars means you can check yourself before you wreck yourself.
Incredible physics for real-time jumping, turning, spinning, and twisting.

If you're here, it's because you know Screamer 2 and you like it. I'd just like to add that if you're trying to run it as me on a low spec 2 in 1 computer with an Intel Atom Z8350, you have to run the 3DFX version to have a good framerate. Using GOG Galaxy, it's under the options setting in the game. It changes the game from "unplayable, I want a refund" to "this is what I remember from 20 years ago".
The first Screamer game to support 3dfx and my favourite - lots of powersliding madness. I don't think any racing game since has really gripped me like this one. 6 courses (I think there are reverse variants) and about the same number of cars but by golly it was fun.
Screamer 2 ditches the sripted driving of the first game in favor of rally-oriented driving physics with a lot of sliding, which is... serviceable for the purpose. Sometimes it will feel weird, but the game is very easy if you know what a racing line is. The biggest reason I liked this game back in the day was the vibrant tracks with old early 90s techno soundtrack and the 2 player splitscreen. Every track was so wildly different in colour palette and theme and that is still a treat especially nowadays, when all the racing games just opt for open worlds where the whole map looks the same.
btw. make sure you update the old dosbox in the installation, otherwise it will keep freezing on modern windows.
I have a soft spot for this game, so I'm admitting some overall bias here. This was my first PC game and the first 3D game that I owned, possibly even one of the first that I've ever played. It's also the first game that taught me how to set up sound in DOS games, and the first one that made me lament not having a 3dfx card. For if you didn't have one, you were stuck with the 20-30 fps gameplay. With 3d acceleration, it's buttery smooth 60fps, although the bilinear filtering does make the textures look more washed out, reducing the gritty PS1 texture charm from the mid-90s.
The game as such is a clone of the then very popular racing games like Ridge Racer or even Need For Speed minus the car license: It's floaty 90s arcade racing, which doesn't feel very realistic, but at the same time, it's perfect for casual gamers. Granted, the physics are much better than in part 1 and the cars do have differences between them, which increases replay value. The tracks, while beautiful for the time, are the standard desert, snow, generic English countryside staples and only few of them exist. If you yearn for some 90s techno OST, this game will make you happy.
I would have given it 3 stars if this had been a PS1 or N64 game, but games like these were far fewer on the PC, so this was the Ridge Racer fix at the time if your parents got you a mid-range PC and there was no money for a console. It also came from a small developer. Needless to say that my PS1 friend was thoroughly underwhelmed by this back in 1996.
played this when it first came out, nd never thought i would be able to play it again, bought it from gog, nd running fab, and the cheats work as well. This game has really aged well, buy it
This game is waiting for a review. Take the first shot!
