SUPERKARTS is a racing game that seems to be a touch different from the rest of the pack. It has a touch of the Doom's about it - presumably something to do with the 3-D engine that's been utilised in the game - but it also meant as a serious karting simulation. Most, as far as I'm aware, have been very tongue-in-cheek Super Mario Kart type affairs with cartoon style graphics and lots of thwacking each other over the head with blunt objects.
SuperKarts is different, and as a result will have more appeal to the true, slightly more technical minded PC racing fan - diplomatic description there. The graphical style and accurately proportioned tracks add a certain something, a touch of realism perhaps, to the whole proceedings with sprite scaling that gives a brilliant feel of perspective.
So, with SuperKarts what you get is a fast, furious, thumpin' game that won't let you rest for one second - all within a 'serious' racing simulation framework. It may sound a little strange but it's a combination that works extremely well giving something of the 'best-of-both-worlds' feel. But hey, you do of course realise there is no need to merely take our word for it, check it out for yourself...
