    Yes, the trailers whet your appetite and yes, graphically it really is a treat. Still, after a few rounds you'll want to return this game. Why?
    The driving physics are horrible, the vehicles are permanently stuck in a pile during the races and with increasing driving experience you hardly make any progress.

    The driving physics are horrible, the vehicles are permanently stuck in a pile during the races and with increasing driving experience you hardly make any progress. Placements are largely decided by trying not to get stuck on edges and ramps, which is made much more difficult by the poor handling. If you do succeed, you don't get new cars, but only coins for lootboxes, where you aren't rewarded for increasing success, but regularly receive the same cars, which you can then disassemble. Even for level advancement, rewards are only partial, while attractive items depend on owning more DLC.
    I am not a fundamental opponent of DLCs - if the actual game is expanded with them. Here, however, you run into DLC walls from the first hour, so that you buy a game on Free 2 Play level at AAA price.    … Expand

    Hot Wheels: Unleashed is a simple yet demanding arcade game. However, its main attraction lies in the incredible care for the toy brand, both for the cars and their tracks, with a really complete editor.
