Outside of Nintendo’s revered series though, the genre has been sparse as of late. Developer Vector Unit, who was also responsible for the surprisingly fun Riptide, has unleashed yet another one of their popular mobile games on consoles. Beach Buggy Racing is exactly what one would expect from a budget-priced kart racing title, but it also serves as a nice supplement to Mario’s famed racer.
Richy takes a look at Beach Buggy Racing on the Nintendo Switch.
Beach Buggy Racing is a decent kart-racer; the driving is fun, the items are bonkers, and you’ll likely be playing it for some time. Perhaps enjoyed best in small bursts, and without the expectation of it being a mega-serious racer, the game does offer some easy-to-play fun for both solo players and groups of family or friends. It can’t steal Mario Kart’s pole position and it suffers from a couple of little niggles but for a fraction of the price it does offer an acceptable alternative.
VGChartz's Evan Norris: "It would be easy to take a quick look at Beach Buggy Racing and write it off as shovelware. It's not. It's a surprisingly fun kart racer with lots of single player content and local multiplayer options for four friends. Tighter steering, more tracks, and an extra layer of polish would make it even better."
Is it just me... but when they review a mediocre game thats multiplatform it's always the XB1 with lowest of scores.
Until I scroll furture down PS4 score 8/10 (punkandlizard.com) It's the same damn game.
The game is more frustrating than fun
