This game is kind of like a time capsule of Nickelodeon's attempts to make their own flash games. I used to play this quite a bit when I was younger. It saw as just like Mario Kart, but now I could play it on the school computers. It was the perfect supplement.
Yesterday, I was adding games to my account on here when I began to notice some of Nickelodeon's flash games weren't represented. So, you wanna know what I did? I decided to add it myself. Justice was served at 3:37 AM. I am making this world a better place. After I put in my hard work, I decided to give the game a whirl. I just have to know how this game holds up. Spoiler Alert: It doesn't.
So, when I load into the game, I am met with two options. "Single Race" and "Tournament." "Single Race" is what I went for first, so now I'm left with the hardest choice of all. Which character do I pick? The characters in this game are pretty normal. All of the characters work as a duo in this game. I would say it's like Mario Kart: Double Dash, but it's not. The second person in your car doesn't do anything. The characters are SpongeBob & Patrick, Carly & Spencer, Aang & Momo, and for no fucking reason Bucket & Skinner. Even as someone who grew up with this era of Nickelodeon, I had no goddamn clue who these tubular surfer dudes were. But to make up for this, there was a secret unlockable character! Oh, boy! To unlock this secret racer, you had to get first place in the Bikini Bottom and Central Park Zoo tracks. So, I picked SpongeBob and Patrick, and I was ready to race!
I load into Bikini Bottom, and I go ahead and take off. In these races, everybody tends to be very close to one another throughout the race, so shit's constantly hitting the fan. Around the second lap, a fucking pile-on collision takes place into a random rock, and my entire car flips over, and I become completely unable to move. Later, I would eventually figure out that you can respawn, but at the moment, I thought I was soft-locked, so I restarted the whole race. During this race is when I found out that you don't have to stay on the track. There is 0 punishment if you drive off the track and take shortcuts. You don't slow down at all, and the AI exclusively stays on the track, so with these cuts, you can get miles ahead of the group. Now, they should easily be able to hit me with some items, though. That's where things get a little weird. Once the rocket item (Basically a Red Shell) travels so far, it just blows up for no fucking reason. So, once you get so far, you become completely unable to be affected by any items. After I also completed the Central Park Zoo track, I unlocked the secret character! This Is when I found out that the secret character is just SpongeBob & Patrick in the Patty Wagon, a complete waste of my time.
The next race I decided to do, I was going to test out the Patty Wagon, and it controls like shit, so after I finished that race on the iCarly track, I went back to the original SpongeBob & Patrick. I should also mention that the last track in this game wasn't given to Avatar: The Last Airbender. It was given to the fucking surfer dudes from a show that lasted one season and didn't even last a full year without cancelation. All of the tracks in this game are just kind of "OK" anyway. When I was younger, I exclusively played the SpongeBob and iCarly tracks. Now that I've played the other tracks, I've learned that I wasn't really missing out on that much. Now, after I finished the surfer dude track, I was ready to be done with this game, but no. I had forgotten about the tournament mode... This was the last thing I needed to do for me to proudly say, "I FINISHED Nick Racers Revolution 3D." So, yeah. I played the tournament mode, and it's literally just all of the tracks back-to-back, except they excluded iCarly for some reason.
Now, I'm done. I'm free from the Nick Racers Revolution 3D shackles. I guess it's fine for something to do while your bitch of a computer teacher nags on and on, but as something to actually play? Yeah, no thanks. I can do without this game. I don't need more unnecessary beach boy inclusions in my life.
