The game is a very quirky and cute RC car racer. The AI isn't as bad as everyone seems to be saying it is. Playing on anything higher than easy greatly improves the AI experience, and makes the game a real challenge. The bumper car-style gameplay goes away once you ramp up the difficulty.

The graphics are that of a very high end mobile game, and it shows that it is actually a mobile game. The controls are actually a very good port of touch based controls, from the mobile game. It includes all the DLC mobile maps that you originally had to shell out money for, and does so in style. It's a true proper mobile to PC port, removing all the bad bits of mobile ports and keeping the good. The good being very fun 15 minutes at a time game sessions.

Racing wise, the handling can get a little sloppy on a few maps. There are some bumps that just shouldn't exist, and can cause you to fly off the map. However some might say those are simply skill challenges and you need to slow down. Outside of getting air handling is very tight and well done. You don't drive on ice like in GTA, instead you drive tight turns when you mean to, and wide turns when you mean to. It's very easy to control, probably due to it's extremely sloppy control background on mobile games. Seriously, touch racing is impossible.

There is a variety of maps, and quite a lot of cars. A truly endless amount if you include the workshop. There is also a map editor for you to make maps for your friends, or to upload to the workshop.

Which leads to the next thing... Multiplayer. It's very well implemented and not at all laggy. It's very fun to race and bash you're buddies, just like in any other game.


I picked the game up on a whim of liking cute RC racers, and I don't regret it one bit. If you're the same, go ahead and grab it. If you're looking for a captivating, serious racer, look elsewhere.
