DreamWorks All-Star Kart Racing Reviews
Dreamworks All-Star Kart Racing is a better kart racer than you're probably expecting, but its low production values mean it can't come close to Nintendo's genre-defining franchise.
DreamWorks All-Star Kart Racing's intention is clear: to attract the most loyal audience of the animation studio. Unfortunately, its negative points don't invite players to stay for a long season, but the charm that remains makes it perfect to have more than a good time, especially in company.

Unless you're one of the biggest DreamWorks fans on the planet, you'll struggle to fall in love with DreamWorks All-Star Kart Racing. Its attempts at authenticity and its numerous references are admirable, but it really lets itself down on the track with frustrating design choices, unstable performance, and a forgettable range of power-ups.
DreamWorks All-Star Kart Racing is fun and demonstrates that the developers cared about the fans of animation. However, it limits itself as another game of the genre that only copies a successful formula, without the necessary potential to stand out.

DreamWorks All-Star Kart Racing is one of the better recent kart racers with its awesome track designs being the star of the show.
DreamWorks All-Star Kart Racing is still a decent racer overall. Much like the studio that inspired it, it’s not going to make you forget the genre’s king, but there’s fun to be found here if you give it a chance.
Dreamworks All-Star Kart Racing is another go at the notorious kart genre, hoping to get things right. In some aspects, it does, but in some certain places, it fails the deliver to make it a worthwhile experience. The graphics, kart customization, and the interaction between characters are great.
While DreamWorks All-Star Kart Racing does little to set itself apart from its contemporaries, it offers a satisfactory kart racing experience with a friendly price tag. The lack of a battle mode hinders the replayability factor, and that is a shame because it would have been the cherry on top of the sundae. If you ever wanted to play as Shrek and friends in a modern kart racer, DreamWorks All-Stars Kart Racing certainly scratches that itch.
Dreamworks All Star Kart Racing is the best alternative racer in the genre for a long time. There’s a great roster to choose from, kart variety and garage customisation lets you tweak your vehicle how you see fit, and it all looks really well presented and polished. Track variety is a little bit limited and repetitive with only one or two memorable standouts, multiplayer modes could be a bit more varied and the voice acting grates after a while, but this is a really promising start for, what we hope will be, an ongoing franchise with more games to come.
DreamWorks All-Star Kart Racing is a worthy contender in the world of kart racing games. While it might not dethrone Mario Kart, it holds its own alongside other titles like Crash Kart Racing. With its all-star cast of DreamWorks characters, a fantastic selection of race tracks, and the promise of endless fun for both solo and multiplayer play, this game is a must-try for fans of DreamWorks and kart racing enthusiasts.
DreamWorks All-Star Kart Racing gets the job done without excessive amount of effort. There’s more than enough content, but the quality of the racing and its general balance is just not on par with most of the better Mario Kart clones out there, let alone the last episodes of the Nintendo franchise.
It’s tough being a kart racer in a world where you will always be compared to the genre’s standard-bearer, but DreamWorks All-Star Kart Racing is perfectly serviceable.
This is honestly one of the best kart racers around, and a genuine competitor to Mario Kart. Despite the disappointing vocal performances, the rest of the game is marvelous. The controls are tight and responsive, the character roster is robust, and the level designs are really inventive. Pair that with an awesome soundtrack that retains the spirit of your favorite films, but throws its own souped up spin on it, and you’ve you a recipe for success.
