Terrible

I got on and was seen with confusing titorial where the steering was god awe full and how the grip steering never worked after I completed the first game I was brought back to the lobby where it was a exact replica of my own game clash royal I looked around and changed my name to something before I was horrified at the rude names I could make I played this game with my younger cousin who is new to vr and safe to say he will never play again as he was rammed in the back by a guy named “Diddy and Jeffrey Epstein” after we finished my younger cousin was kicked from the game and started screaming and crying before punching a hole in the wall and the tv

Targeted at the 10 and below players

The game play is very simplistic It is essentially a VR version of the phone game whereas more touch controls than it is VR controls. It said you can grab the steering wheel with your grip buttons but I found that they don't work at all you are mostly staring with your thumb stick. You don't have any control over the power-ups that you get besides hitting them and the drifting does not work for VR. The tracks are extremely short it's nice that is period with the flat found version but this is a very super casual game and I'm quite sure the flat version it's also targeted at 10 or below. The VR elements are well done as far as world scale and HUD elements so this is actually not a bad port it's just does nothing more for VR.

This game made me crave death

Trying to play this game is equivalent to shoving my hands in a blender, the drifting Is terrible and makes it hard to steer, the game has no justifiable reason for being in vr, and even after 4 years of using vr this one game made me feel motion sick. the definition of torture is: the action or practice of inflicting severe pain or suffering on someone as a punishment or in order to force them to do or say something. This game is the closest a average Joe will come to torture. This should have stayed a mobile game. This game has no reason to be in vr, it's WORSE in vr, and the horrible controls and needlessly hard bots make me beg for deth. A little more forsite or development time would have made this feel amazing. A cart racer for stand-alone vr headsets? That sounds awesome but this? THIS SLOP!? Please I beg fix the movement up the graphics DO ANEYTHIG, this game it could be so good. In game i named my self John boom boi because I thought this game would be good enough to name myself after, but after playing for 20-30 minutes it became painfully obvious how much of a cash grab this was. Vr is hard to develop for and to need to put in more effort than this if you want a fun game.

Speed

I tried kart VR games more than once. I was lacking speed in all of them. So boom karts, I was surprised that the speed was enough. And a lot of drifting, which is especially fun. It's fun to slide and at the last moment get out of the drift so as not to run off the track. Let's not forget that there is a battle royale mode. The main drawback is that there are not many tracks :(
