The graphics are clean and fun, nothing overly complicated but it works.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
12 of 65 sampled reviews raised it
Having 19 other drivers on the course is not the problem, as it allows the drafting mechanic to shine as much as possible, which I'll get to in a moment: the problem is how these 19 drivers handle themselves on the track.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
7 of 65 sampled reviews raised it
Stages will take you to dirt ovals, crowded forests, Initial D-esque mountain tops, and even a nice nod to the real life Monaco GP: the landmarks to floor it through are a very nice variety of visual gusto and balanced difficulty with a small, yet killer soundtrack that are a blast to play through.
