Review

I'm a runner up in the E4 Games Awards
This game comes on like a cross between Mario Kart and Micro Machines - both fine games, here joyously rendered. The characters presented for your driving pleasure, are many and varied - there's Rocko the raccoon, Hudson the bespectacled dag, and Vixen the, err, vixen, among many others. Each of them has their own special move. Also, you can be forgiven for thinking that they drive differently, although there's no 'stats' to support this.

You've got a total of eight different cups to play through, with two different disciplines (over land and over sea) and three different difficulty levels to overcome... a simple bit of maths and we can deduce that that's exactly lots of playability for your dollar. The controls are responsive, the weapons are satisfying, and the winning is empowering: so start those engines.


Controls

Use the up arrow to accelerate and the down arrow to brake, then the left and right arrow to turn. Drive over question boxes to collect items, and press the space bar to use them.

Tips

The sides of the courses slow you down so try to stick to a racing line, also keep you eyes peeled for potential short-cuts, they aren't always guaranteed to save you time, but they should give you a sense of self-satisfaction that is so rare that it must be cherished - yep yep.
