    What a fantastic game, stuffed full of extras to keep you playing, and one of the best uses of a license: toy, comic, or movie around. While there's typical met expectations of a marathon of races and online multiplayer, as well as quick races, it's all the extra stuff that sets it apart- Split screen 2player racing, which is so frequently overlooked, is SO appreciated! The Hot Wheels license may appeal to kids & collectors, the easy, addictive gameplay is also going to be loved by adults & hardcore gamers and is a PERFECT "bridge" game for a parent & child to play together - beyond expected, in-depth livery editor. Would have been incredibly easy for developers to select a group of Hot Wheels cars and then select 4-5 of the premade, different paint jobs HW already has on offer. Instead, a rather large selection of stickers and up to 1000 layers allows you to completely make your fave HW *YOURS* and display it in your profile, as well as share and download others from the HWU community. - track editor. Create your own tracks to race on, including special track pieces found in actual HW play sets & completely unique pieces only able to be pulled off in a video game (web shooting spiders, magnetized tracks to go up walls and along ceilings, etc). Like the livery editor, you can share creations with the HWU community! -your own "basement" HWU is a typical racing game where you drive, drift, and shoot for the gold, only driven as the actual miniature 1:64 scale cars. Races take place in real world size locations that have set down a track. Among these locations is "your" basement, which you can customize in-depth as you unlock paints, materials, decorations, etc. -use of other licenses. Batman, Back to the Future, Street Fighter, TMNT, even Barbie all have a presence... coming soon? Monster Truck racing While two different games, the best stamp of approval Is that we bought Forza Horizon 5 right before this and they've both found the same amount of playtime. Absolute must own!

    It’s a fun racing game with many different cars. The mechanics in the game make the races feel like playing with Hot Wheels when you’re a kid.

    Super fun game! My 4yo really enjoys watching me struggle with the drifting aspect. Definite learning curve compared to the Cars game, but overall an enjoyable time. Add-one are a plus but it would be nice to not have to download/pay for so many of the advertised cars and levels.

    I really like the racing experience but I feel like the AI might be too aggressive. The single-player content is decently robust, although it relies heavily on DLC. Maybe wait to get it on sale but I do recommend it.

    The game is a lot of fun. But I do detest the constant dlc prices. They are over priced in my opinion.

    I don't usually care for racing games, but this game is a blast. The physics are so well-done, it feels exactly like you're drive a toy. The racing mechanics are tight, but not over-the-top like some racing sims. And the giant tracks and obstacles are great.
