Two riders share each kart, one driving and one throwing items, and you can swap them at any time. It's the most unusual Mario Kart and a great couch party game.
Kit's verdict · 7.8/10
The quirky co-op Mario Kart, great with a friend on your kart.Kit · Sadkitty Games
Loved
- Two-rider teamwork is unique

- Fun local multiplayer
Not so much
- Fewer tracks than later games

Play it if anyone with a friend to share a kart with.
Skip it if solo players who want online racing.
