It runs smooth, looks great, features tight controls and an arcade sense of physics that lets anyone get a handle on it in a couple of minutes. The fact that it's challenging and deep leaves room for gamers to develop their skills, both physical and mental, over time.
For some the difficulty may be a little frustrating and later on in the game it seems a little fruitless to fork out on weapons, but it's balanced, clever and exciting, almost forcing you to have one more go.

The game's far-overhead view serves the action well, but the cars appear very small, which could be a distraction. [March 2005, p.108]
Despite these crippling flaws, Racing Gears Advance has that rare quality of being addictive.
