Nicktoons Winners Cup Racing Review

Review by Mick

While racing around Bikini Bottom can be fun, Nicktoons Winners Cup Racing is most definitely geared towards the younger audience. You can explore and race around four different maps all tied to the main characters that are available to race. While the winners cup is limited to four races, three other modes of play are available to extend this game's playability.

Race Around Familiar Nick Locations

Nicktoons Winners Cup Racing will have you driving around places such as Bikini Bottom or Retroville, racing to get treasure or just the next checkpoint. At first there are four characters that you can play such as Sponge Bob and Jimmy Neutron, but four others can be unlocked by getting first place in the winners cup with each initial character.

4 Ways to Race

There are four modes of play available, winners cup, quick race, free driving and mini games. Winners cup is a series of four races, one race at each location. Winning the winners cup unlocks the villain characters, one for each of the main characters. Quick race mode allows you to pick which city you would like to race in and sets up a random checkpoint race. Random checkpoints means that each race is unique and provides new challenges. If you just want to explore each town without having to race around, then free driving is the mode you want to select.

Mini Games to Unlock

Finally there are the mini games. These are unlocked in quick race mode by getting home town wins. The mini games available include treasure hunt and tag. In treasure hunt you race around Bikini Bottom trying to gather the most treasure, but go fast because the other racers are after the same treasure.

This game is a good game for the younger age group but play would be limited for anyone older than 10-12. For starters, the winners cup only has four races and can easily be beaten. The unlockable content is relatively minimal, meaning after an hour or so anyone out of the age group could have the entire game wrapped up.

Conclusion - A Good Racer for Younger Players

For the younger age groups, Nicktoons Winners Cup Racing is a game where you can enjoy driving around as your favorite cartoon character. If you are in the age group targeted with this game, then the main races and unlockable content will keep you busy for hours. For family friendly racing adventures Nicktoons Winners Cup Racing is a great choice.
