I was expecting this to be meme level bad, but in reality it's just a generic kart racer that plays well enough. It has some pretty good tracks; one of my biggest pet peeves in kart racers is when the tracks are just generic race tracks with themed elements, but this game really makes you feel like you're driving on dangerous cliffsides, or through a construction site. It does weirdly have 1/4th of its tracks be a desert theme, which...is that a Garfield thing?

The items can be pretty creative too. The UFO as this games version of the blue shell is a standout.

There's some light customisation, and my favourite thing is that the hats aren't just stat-based, but give little additional effects (usually improving the effectiveness of a weapon).

But it lacks content. 16 race tracks and that's the game. And while the game plays well enough, it doesn't really do anything except be kart racer #100.

I would have given this game 2 stars, but it suffers from some serious crash issues, which if you get will cause you to re-do an entire grand prix, or get that top result in time trials. Kinda ruins what should be a quick, simple one-time kart racer.

If you're a huge kart racer fan (or maybe even a huge Garfield fan lol) I'd say it's worth a go round, but the crashing might make you drop the game before you can even do all 16 tracks.
