Ratings and reviews

Overall a really fun and enjoyable layout and experience, and it provides great fun when playing with friends. My only complaint is that during one of the games constant and random crashes, you are left listening to rather loud them music for an upwards of 5 or so minutes during the "updating" with no way to turn it down and/or off. While I'm sure some people enjoy it, I do not. Aside from that, it makes for a great game.

It's an awesome game! The only reason it's getting 4 stars is they need to stop people from cheating on multiplayer! One of the biggest issues I've had in multiplayer is when you make them crash they continue moving forward at driving speed as if they didn't crash period, not even when you nail them using a Super Star! The other issue is they'll immediately get the item they want without hitting an item box! And when they use it, it lasts longer than even the plus versions!

Some fun gameplay to be had in single player. But very quickly becomes a grind to improve scores. A decent array of achievements to work towards. Biggest flaw is the multiplayer - it's terrible, 2 reasons. First - it crashes far too often. On good wifi connections, it fails to connect to the server 50% of the time. Frustrating. Second - it seems some other players cheat, and easily so, since it happens so much. E.g. getting hit by items and not crashing. Shame, as otherwise 4 stars.
