There's no shortage of racing games for handhelds, and it takes a lot of special to make one stand out. Rocket Racing's concept is good but not great and doesn't pack the fun factor required to make the game worthwhile. It's a frustrating experience that feels less like a game and more like a test.
For the small price it asks there's a lot of game in the package, but this is the kind of game that even if it had been free few should give it a second glance; it's just not worth the time investment.

Most games have at least one notable aspect of risk versus reward.Action games often tie that directly to the player's ability to quickly strategize and react. The yearning that humans feel to test limits is often known as "pushing the envelope". Rocket Racing is a 2D racing game built around that yearning.
In the end, you're just sliding into walls while doing the best you can with too loose controls. There's a fair amount of stuff to do here and Rocket Racing looks pretty in its 2D Technicolor, but it's just not that much fun to play.
