It's a fun game. I used to play MK8 a lot with a group of friends and we enjoyed this game as much as Mario Kart. Sadly, 12 characters aren't enough for a game like this. The majority of tracks are fun to play but there are some that can feel repetitive because of the excessive amount of slime. Driving mechanics are good, maybe not as polished as other karting games, but still lets you enjoy the game. I hope that this game could receive DLCs with more characters, this could make the game way better. If you are a fan of karting games or a Nickelodeon fan, you should get this.
Nickelodeon Kart Racers
Nothing but skins
Nickelodeon Kart Racers is a Kart Racing game that can be played solo or with up to 4 players locally,
there are solo races as well as team races
Here youll be playing as a variety of characters from spongebob, hey Arnold, rugrats, and teenage mutant ninja turtles…
As a kart racer its all about grabbing random pick ups, using them offensively and defensively.. drifting, picking up slime to build up a boost and try to come out on top at the end of each race
As a 90s kid the idea of such a game obviously excited me, but sadly I was quickly disappointed…
Sadly Nickelodeon Kart Racers feels like a mediocre racer with just the skins of characters we all know and love…
For starters the roster here is pretty small and disappointing…
only 3 characters for each show with one of the turtles taking up the 3rd slot for hey Arnold…
but there are no more characters to unlock.. theres actually really nothing to unlock or work towards other that kart upgrades which sortve makes this game feel a bit pointless…
Theres a grand prix where you choose your character and try to get the most point possible to get the win at the end… but all that’s here is leveling up and coins… coins go towards buying kart upgrades, and leveling up gives you a victory lap which means bonus coins and the possibility of getting a free upgrade…
and youre able to applies these upgrades to every character no matter which show theyre from which is nice.. but at the same time it kills the opportunity of having racers have different stats…
This game isn’t awful though…
There is plenty of fan service in terms of cameos and nostalgic throwbacks throughout the 24 different tracks and I really love the sonic and all stars racing transformed elements of going land slime and air…
but theres just no personality here.. theres no voice work.. only little captions popping up at the bottom of the screen instead of actual taunts…
it kind of just makes the game feel flat
and it only takes a little less than 2 and a half hours to see all there is to see here…
IF it weren’t for the skins of the characters and the name on the box, you would have no clue this wasa nickelodeon game.. it has no character
I give Nickelodeon Kart Racers
a 5.5/10
