of your chosen four-wheeler.Īs an arcade-like game, the vehicles on offer are quite light-hearted with sports cars through to military trucks and buses.
The game is a little tight on distributing the wealth, so expect to plough through several tracks until you can upgrade the acceleration, top speed et al. You earn money from your winnings or the notes you find on the track. Scattered across each track includes nitro boosts and cash to upgrade your vehicle, switch over to the ‘X’ part of the game, and you have a Mario Kart-esque racer, weapons and all. In fear of a driving pun, The Binary Mill don’t reinvent the wheel here as the objective of the game is to win each race. Unlike the latter, the tracks aren’t tabletops or toilet bowls – perhaps not the kind of locations you’d see on a typical racing circuit, but tearing it up at a resort or haunted mansion is pretty liberating. The closest driving game from the list would be Hotshot Racing, but unlike this Daytona USA racer, our specimen is a ‘self-contained’ racer, similar to Micro Machines. Think about the opening list of titles, and you have some fantastic games to choose from. There’s nothing much like Mini Motor Racing X. Racing games have had a boost these past few weeks with the likes of Inertial Drift, WRC 9, Drift21, Hotshot Racing and now Mini Motor Racing X on the Nintendo Switch.Īlready available on the PS4, this game from The Binary Mill has had an influx of tweaks specifically for the Nintendo version, but for a game that looked pretty damn good on other platforms, is it as good on the Switch?
