    Played it ~1h with a friend. Single Player Campaign was quite boring and to linear for me.

    We are old nerds so we constantly compared this game to "Super Cars II" and "Micro Machines" on the Commodore Amiga - not fair I know because this game did not plan to copy this. It is a solid game in terms of controls, gfx, sounds. But for us it felt lifeless, to steril. You can play it for    Played it ~1h with a friend.

    You can play it for a couple of hours casually and go on with your life.    … Expand

    I wanted this to be RC Motorstorm but it is not. It a well made game but it is just too boring. Needs some kind of interesting gimmick or hook to make me want to do this vanilla racing. There is just no power-ups or any sense of speed. Not worth the price.

    Bought this game because Micro Machines was fun.

    But this game could be Micro Machines if it was targeted as a online game with single player. But it ain't, to get games in online lobbies is rare with hardly anyone online. Making this game mainly a single player game and most single player games are boring rinse and repeat affairs, just like this one. Average game that could of been so    Bought this game because Micro Machines was fun.

    What lets it down is the lack of variety in design. [Dec 2016, p.80]

    Mantis Burn Racing is a fun yet slightly shallow racing game. It's a decent alternative for those who don't feel like getting too investing in a deep racing sim and are just looking for an easy to play arcade racer.

    With its beautifully tuned handling, great graphics, and surprisingly deep career mode, Mantis Burn Racing is an enjoyable and entertaining top-down racer. The only thing that really lets it down is its rather limited track selection, which results in the game becoming a little repetitive as you progress through later levels.
