The modes are a mix of a few online ones that I couldn’t test as no one was playing yet and numerous mediocre offline ones. The grind is real, and you are going to have to play a lot of this game to unlock everything in it. The main progression system is earning slime tokens after each race and spending them on whichever racer you want. You’ll use these characters and vehicles across thirty-six tracks featuring a decent number of new ones alongside a bunch of returning tracks from previous entries. You’ll choose from either a kart or a bike, then customize your tires, tailpipe, and paint job to match your preferred look and playstyle.
Finally, you have your crew mechanic who offers up another passive from the same character pool as the engineers. Next up is your crew engineer, they offer a passive bonus such as gaining a shield whenever you acquire an item and there is a very large number of them to unlock.

For the Love of God, Please Stop Quipping Nickelodeon Kart Racers 3: Slime Speedway attempts to morph the Sonic & All-Stars Racing games with Mario Kart and ends up being a pale imitation of both titles that costs $50, but it’s not all bad. They’ve even chucked in voice acting for the first time and boy do I wish they hadn’t. Featuring dozens of characters and tracks that star a heck of a lot of Nickelodeon properties the game is a hefty-looking package at first glance. Would you like to review the new Nickelodeon Kart Racers title, it releases tomorrow! Being a glutton for punishment I said why not and spent the rest of my day playing the game.
