Even as made-for-kids kart racers go, Paw Patrol: Grand Prix is a truly shoddy product. Now while I will admit I am clearly not the target audience for the game, a 21-year-old with no attachment to the property the game is based on, I can confidently say that even as a kid, I would be bored by this game.
Compared to other kart racers like Mario Kart or the Sonic Racing series, Paw Patrol: Grand Prix feels incredibly slow and dull. The opponent AI is terrible on every level, and the tracks are so bland that the game practically plays itself.
While games like Sonic Racing or Mario Kart have a great variety of locations with unique visuals and memorable music, this game is a mess of reused assets and basic tracks that fail to stand out in any way.
On top of that, the cups themselves are brutally long slogs comprised of far too many races that take well over an hour to complete, meaning this game isn't even good for the achievement hunters out there.
Wether you are an adult or a child, I'd strongly suggest you steer clear of this game at all costs.
