It feels like Mario Kart 8 with the BMW DLC in that regard. And while I was scared that these vehicles would not stand a chance against the normies, I’m happy to report that these cars are just as good as the realistic ones. There’s also a slew of other ones like tanks, buses, and yes, a toaster.

But you’ll also find yourself flying off the edge of ramps, floating through the air with full control over the angle of your vehicle, occasionally having to turn your vehicle 180 degrees to catch an upside-down magnetic track.Īnd while this does feature many Hot Wheels cars inspired by real vehicles, like Camaros and Dodge Rams, it also has the fun ones like the previously mentioned dinosaur vehicles, bumper cars and burger trucks.

You’ll find yourself speeding and drafting behind vehicles, drifting around corners like a tiny Initial D. The game controls a bit more realistically than Mario Kart in some parts and remarkably bizarre in other parts. It’s what you’d expect from Hot Wheels - fun. I felt like a child driving my car underneath couches and off coffee tables and, occasionally, out a massive toy dinosaur’s mouth.īut once you’re done with the bells and whistles, how is the game itself? How is the actual driving and racing bit? This is exactly what I wanted these things to be when I was a kid. I am very happy to announce that, unlike many modern game trailers, Milestone and Mattel were not just hawking snake oil. It looks like playing pretend coming to life. And the plastic tracks would actually snap together and stay where I wanted them to be as opposed to suddenly falling over, taking my design with it the first time a car hit it with enough inertia. As a former Gamestop employee with too many years under my belt, most of my experiences with Hot Wheels were selling them to men in the midst of a midlife crisis.īut if the trailers were to be believed, the game looked like everything I wanted Hot Wheels to be as a child cars I could completely paint over (which I loved to do) and then actually drive on massive plastic tracks. In fact, most of my encounters with Hot Wheels weren’t pleasant. I was never a big Hot Wheels fan growing up but I always ended up with a bunch of them as a kid and I had a couple I played with.

Since it was first announced, I was hyped for Hot Wheels Unleashed.
