Steam reviews

What players say

Players praise it as a fast, skill-based CTR-style kart racer whose workshop mod support is its standout feature, though the base content is still small.

Most players recommend the game, and many call it one of the best kart racers on PC, with Crash Team Racing-style drifting and boost mechanics that reward practice. Players enjoy the tight handling, the chain of drift boosts that builds speed, and the shortcuts hidden in the tracks. The main draw is the built-in Steam Workshop, which lets players add custom tracks, characters and karts from other games, and several reviewers say the mods make the game endless. Players complain that the base roster of 16 tracks and few characters feels thin, that the weapons are weak or auto-aim too much, and that the AI rubber-bands too strongly at higher difficulties. Some report bugs, karts getting stuck on scenery and an unreliable menu, and online lobbies are often empty, so many players rely on split screen or Discord to find races.

Praised

  • Crash Team Racing feel

    Players say the drifting, air control and boost system closely match Crash Team Racing and feel tight and responsive.

    Many players
  • Workshop mod support

    Built-in Steam Workshop integration lets players install custom tracks, characters and karts without leaving the game.

    Many players
  • Skill and speed

    Players value a high skill ceiling, with drift chains and shortcuts that reward learning the tracks and improving lap times.

    Some players

Criticised

  • Thin base content

    Players say the 16 official tracks, small roster and limited single-player modes feel light, especially in early access.

    Many players
  • Weak or auto-aim weapons

    Players find the items underwhelming and say auto-aiming weapons and the blue-shell-style hit make races feel unfair.

    Some players
  • Bugs and clipping

    Players report karts getting stuck on scenery, clipping out of bounds, janky race starts and menu or mod-loading problems.

    Some players
Who it suits
Suited to fans of Crash Team Racing or Mario Kart who enjoy mod support and skill-based drifting, and to players who like to build their own content.
Who should skip it
Players wanting a large, polished, ready-made game with a full roster and active online lobbies should wait for more content or skip it.

Short vs. long playtime: Players with over 20 hours tend to focus more on the workshop and on learning the physics, while newer players mainly praise the quick, fun arcade feel.
