Worth it?
Is it too inferior to Mario Kart or Crash Kart series? Too childish? I'm not a fan of nickelodeon or its characters from what I've seen the only appealing are the TMNT and even their design is quite awkward to me.
I've also watched some gameplays on yt and felt the game was kinda slow, not too exciting or am I wrong?
Suggestions?

It gets more fun if you play hard mode or the insane difficulty but that you need to do all cups in each difficulty to unlock which is kinda meh cause easy/medium difficulty is super boring

No, you can even change the resolution.

Do you mean you CAN'T change the resolution? I was about to ask if 21:9 is supported (which is aspect ratio, not resolution, but whatever)...

I have to recheck, I often can come first in 3 of the maps but cannot do all 4 at the moment due to unlucky

Its nowhere near Crash Team Racing, Sonic Racing, or Mario Kart. Its more along the lines of Garfield Kart or Hello Kitty and Sanrio Friends Racing

I'd only shrekomend this if you're a real fan of the shows present like TMNT, Danny Phantom, Invader Zim, or Rugrats

It's a very, very well made Mario-Kart like in my opinion. Inferior to the best of the genre, yet MILES ahead of Garfield Kart as it is suggested by my predecessor. Seriously, man !

The gameplay is fine, there is many characters and circuits which all are beautiful and very diverse. Unlockables, YAY !

You can't change the game's resolution, though. I usually play on 1080p and it was not that much of a problem on my 15" gaming laptop. I enjoyed my gaming sessions on it.

The game is a blast on Steam Deck, though. The game, it's visuals and gameplay perfectly suit the Deck's controls, screen, feeling, everything.

If you don't already own the three Sonic Racing games on Steam, I'd advise you to pick them instead. But if you are looking for one more nice crossover mario-kart like, it might be a great pick. You could also take a look at Beach Buggy Racing 2, which is made of an equivalent quality in my opinion.

Plus it's only 5 Gb fat, which is a bonus these days.

For 1,71€ yes. I hope.

This. It's not the best ever but it's leagues ahead of Garfield and others. I was really surprised.

Not only that some of the challenges are extreme annoing. Good that i get it so cheap.

Well I know there has been a long time since I posted this but I guess it's time to give my mini feedback:
Yes, it's absolutely worth. Imo it's the more mario kart-ish game on Steam. Nice and varied items, nice customisation, nice and varied tracks, etc.
I know you have Sonic games that many consider more skill based but they really didn't catch my attention.
In regards to other titles such as Garfield, Coffin Dodgers, F1 race stars, Zero Gears, Super indie karts, all star fruit, etc, etc, etc IMO they are on a lower level of fun/quality/tier.
But that's just my opinion.
I enjoyed the Crash Racing on psx a lot along with mario 64 on n64, btw you can play both on steam via:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1118310/RetroArch/
I really recommend Nickelodeon Kart Racers 2, the only issues I've found are the issues I constantly find -in my region- with ANY other non-f2p steam game and that's the lack of players. But nothing than manually finding players via steam groups, looking for players, etc. So if you read this and get this game probably you'll have to to the same thing, (search for players to add) other than that? Great game to me!
I'm also enjoying Mario Kart8DX on PC (you know how) also got last crash racing but haven't tested it.

Hey man, since I see that you are a non native speaker. Be careful, "worthless" means it's NOT worth it.

It's easy to understand what you meant and I agree, it's definitely better than all those games you mentioned. i've had a lot of fun.
