32 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It quickly surprised me with it's fun and addictive game play, reminding me of UniRally/uniracer the old snes classic and has a little micro-machines dna in there too. the difficulty curve is really optimised and there's something to be gained by replaying old levels and learning the timing of each.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.

solid 7/10 game , extra fun if you can convince your friends to learn the controls and nuances of gameplay for multiplayer .

The presentation complements the gameplay with an upbeat soundtrack and lighthearted tone that never takes itself too seriously.
