I loved it when it was free for the week. So much so that I’ve been sorely tempted to actually buy it! Been very close recently.
I found the racing, maps and the adventure mode to be so much better than Mario Kart 8DX. I’ve found, bar online, MK8DX to be weirdly lacking when it has so much content. Really flies in the face of my idea that unlockables should be open. Turns out having them open is actually a disincentive.
Don’t suppose you played Diddy Kong Racing on the N64 did you? If so, how does the adventure mode compare to that? I always loved that game much more than MK64.
I’ve only played DKR a couple of times a long time ago, but as far as I can remember it’s very similar. Feels a little less ‘adventure-y’ in terms of setting and more race-focused but they’re basically the same thing… A bunch of world’s with 4 races, a boss fight at the end, and then you can go back to do some extra challenges like time trials etc
Been playing Murder By Numbers over the past week, and just completed it. I enjoyed it and it’s Phoenix Wright type story style. I’ve decided I never want to play another Picross game again though. Neverending picrosses!
I think @escutcheon said as much but it’s super tight as a racer, really fun and satisfying to play. Possibly better than MK8D although there’s not much in it… back in the day way better than MK64 though IMO.
The loading times are ridiculous but pretty great apart from that
