This game is really well made for what it is, and has a surprising amount of depth [and a pretty active competitive scene] if that's your sort of fancy.

I quite enjoy playing it with friends, and it's a very easy way to spend an afternoon. The storymode is a bit lacking, but I'm not really sure who'd buy a multiplayer kart racer for the story, anyway. [You do have to beat it to unlock all the characters, though.]

This game features a really fun mechanic where you pick two characters to play with different stats and abilities, and you can switch which character you're "driving" and which character you're "steering" with, so you can switch to what character better suits your needs at any given moment. [as you get the other character's stats when you swap] Additionally, you have the choice between both characters special abilities, which is fun!

I think my biggest wants from this game would be for them to add more maps, and maybe a few characters. At this time, it's unclear if the devs have completely stopped support on this game. But it seems likely.

Additionally, this game has a bit of a higher pricepoint for what it is, so I have to knock down a few points for that. It's good, but it can be hard to justify for those without a lot of money to spend.

All in all though, good game! If you're thinking of getting it for game night, I'd say go for it.
