My Review
I
really enjoyed this racing game. It features a 2D overhead view
instead of the first-person driver's seat perspective that is common with
modern racing games, and I found this refreshing. It really lets you see what
is happening around you, and allows you to bring some strategy to the game.
Besides the racing, the game also has some simulation aspects to it, where you
must manage your career and your relationships with your boss, pit crew, fans,
and family. Each of these relationships directly impact certain aspects of the
race itself.
For the most part, this game is very family-friendly.
I gave it
a Teen rating, however, because the sim part of the game provides an in-game casino that
lets you to gamble with your virtual prize money. In the casino, you can
play blackjack, roulette, or slots. These little mini-games are a nice
diversion and allow you to relax your fingers between races; however, some parents may object to the gambling aspect of the game, even if it is with fake money.
So parents may want to check out this game themselves first.
