Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
47 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
This is due to it being an overall great game, with natural feeling fun mechanics (unlike clunky CrossWorlds), a weird but varied roster, and graphics that hold up so well today.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
36 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The skill floor is low allowing families and casuals to have fun (especially with local co-op), whilst the skill ceiling is so high allowing mastery and an insane but rewarding 8/10 difficulty 100%.
Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
32 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Has online multiplayer but it's fun even in single player mode and it's far better than Garfield Karts and Nickelodeon Karts.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
30 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It is a huge roster of drivers and thankfully a lot of them are unlockable throughout the game's various modes.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
26 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The game does have some nice levels to race on (and a few aggravating ones), the graphics are reasonably good, the music is catchy, and there's a decent assortment of characters to select.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
13 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The soundtrack is another highlight, featuring a mix of original compositions and remixes of classic SEGA tunes.
