![]() ![]() The humour is not well written and is more likely to send a shudder through your spine than elicit a laugh. The narrative is weak and designed for a younger audience. The story mode is without a doubt the worst aspect of Chocobo GP. These are accompanied by a number of additional ways to play including a cup mode a time attack mode, custom races as well as both local split-screen and online multiplayer modes. The main offerings are “story mode” and “Chocobo GP”. As you may expect there are both single and multiplayer modes to get stuck into. Of course, you will have your favourites but I can't help but feel with this addition, that there is more character variation and thus more reason to try them out.Īway from the tarmac, the game boasts several game modes to try out. I also found that it motivated me to play with a multitude of characters just to see how their abilities work. Rather than just checking speed, handling and so on you will find yourself considering what each character's special does. It’s a welcome addition to the formula making the final laps some of the most hectic experiences of any kart racer to date. All 23 playable characters have their own unique special and if used successfully can make an enormous difference to your standing in a race. By filling a meter in the bottom corner of your screen you will be able to unleash a special move. Perhaps the biggest deviation from other games of its kind is the addition of character specials. The risk and reward system of keeping hold of your items doesn't often mix well with the chaotic nature of the races, and you may well find by doing so you are inviting more frustration than satisfaction. It adds an element of strategy - or, at least it intends to. It’s a delightfully Final Fantasy touch to include an item levelling system to a kart racer. Each magicite has 3 levels that scale its effectiveness. In an attempt to enhance this age-old kart racer mechanic, you can choose whether to use your power up straight away or to keep hold of it and level it up by collecting additional items. Pickups in this game are collected via mystery eggs which contain several different elemental magicites, allowing you to perform fire, water, wind and lighting attacks on your competition. Likewise, performing tricks at the top of ramps will provide you with a further boost. Stringing successful boosts together as you slide around corners on the game's 9 courses will become a mainstay in your gameplay and it is as fun as it is addictive. Much like Mario Kart 8 drifting will allow you to activate 2 additional levels of boost. Of course, racing is at the heart of Chocobo GP and thankfully this is where the game shines. The game features a multitude of systems which as the player you will need to get used to, but ultimately it doesn't offer any big surprises, and the mechanics are almost all familiar concepts borrowed or adapted from its competitors in the genre. There is absolutely nothing that irks me more than a kart racer that feels sluggish, yet you would be surprised how many of these exist. ![]() It feels fast with precise controls and well-balanced mechanics. I don't recommend this game at all, unless you want to support laziness.Screeching away from the starting line Chocobo GP is exactly what you would expect from a modern kart racer. Sometimes the characters don't even open their mouths when they talk. The developers were too cheap and lazy to implement such a basic feature that even PS2 games have. I literally had one 3-lap race last for only one lousy minute. If anything it made me irritated, to the point where I almost wanted to snap my Switch in half if I heard that victory cringeworthy music again. It is overly exaggerated and tries too hard to be upbeat in a pathetic attempt at making players excited when they win. Speaking of music, the music is extremely cringeworthy when I win a race. The developers added cute upbeat music and pretty colorful lights everywhere in this game, to give players the illusion that the game is fun. The greedy developers are charging $50 for an off-brand Mario Kart game. ![]() ![]() The gameplay is This game is complete trash. ![]()
