Browsing through Steam sales, I stumbled upon this game and thought: “hey, I used to play this as a kid.”. I bought it, installed it… and ended up disappointed. The game itself is still fun, a classic of PC racing, but what they’re selling here is the PlayStation 1 version, emulated in the worst possible way. It runs at 15–20 FPS, the visuals are awful, and any sense of smooth gameplay is gone. The worst part? The original PC version looked much better and ran flawlessly. In short: the game is great, but this port is a disaster. If you actually want to enjoy it, go find the original PC version (now abandonware) and play it the way it was meant to be played.8 found this helpful

I love this game! It really feels like I am playing on my PlayStation 1 from back in the day again especially when using the ShaderGlass CRT Monitor filter while playing the game. I recommend giving these a try!5 found this helpful
I dont see any enhancements in the game, it doesnt run smoothly as the pc version which was the expected behavior.3 found this helpful
I highly recommend this game for those who are looking for hidden gems from past eras in gaming. On the surface, there's a unique kart-ish racing game here, with a gimmick most similar to Lego Racers, where you build your own power ups by driving through colored gates in different orders. This in itself is fine, there's a sweet PS1 atmosphere with a very enjoyable soundtrack to accompany it all, and a relatively fun little remote controlled buggy "bouncy" physics to the driving. However, not all is as it seems. You will find that you can unlock additional buggies. Some are rewards for progressing in the hub by winning races but what about the many others that stay locked? Well I do not want to spoil it completely so that you have a reason to play and find out for yourself, but I recommend taking a trip over into Time Trial mode and exploring the levels. The way you unlock many buggies is really unique and - though I definitely view this with nostalgia glasses - I find it still a deeply fascinating example of game design to this day.2 found this helpful
