    I'll admit that this games doesn't have much on any other racing game out there, but this is what makes it special: The cars are cool, the gameplay is okay and the one thing it has over any other racing game except for mari kart is that it is just fun for no apparent reason.

    Another bare-bones arcade racing game that has some nice visuals - the underwater Atlantis track looks particularly nice - but the physics and handling feel more like a 16 BIT game.

    Playing Exotica requires very little skill or finesse, but for the casual gamer who doesn't want to commit lots of time to racing a track, that's not really a bad thing.

    Only fun for a very brief moment really, and once that moment passes you're left with a very bland, very dated racer.
