Dead Heat Breakers, The (3DS) price, value & rarity
An unlikely Dillon spin-off, this mash-up of tower defense, racing, and action casts a sausage vendor against giant monsters. Too offbeat and released to total indifference, it won over only a handful. Janky but heartfelt, it'll amuse curious players who love games bold enough to embrace the absurd.
