What would you do if you found a briefcase filled with money?

Help Rick stay alive as he races, shoots, fights - and even throws chairs! - in this top-down, open-world shooter. Want to keep breathing? Eliminate enemies efficiently and steal cars to stay one step ahead of your pursuers. With the freedom to progress straight through the main story or complete a variety of side missions, you can experience a life of crime in any way you see fit in Riskers. Think you have what it takes to survive?
