A range of cartoon characters from many decades of Nickelodeon all waiting for you to take them over the finish line.

If you’re a Nickelodeon fan and love racing, then Nickelodeon Kart Racers 3: Slime Speedway is going to be a no-brainer. It’s a fun all-ages racer that offers a ton of characters from Nickelodeon’s history, even going up to the recent Kamp Coral animated series, while adding a feature that Nickelodeon fans have been asking for since the first game in this racing series: voice acting! And now you can select between karts and bikes, which is a very Mario Kart thing to do.

Tapping into just about every available franchise it can, Kart Racers 3 has plenty of character but stalls a bit in some key areas

Nickelodeon Kart Racers 3 does feel so much more complete than the first two iterations of the series, but it still has a little more room to grow…Even when I was frustrated at some of those things, the tracks, karts, and characters kept me coming back for more. It’s definitely worth checking out for fans of racing games and Nickelodeon shows and characters.

Ultimately, Nickelodeon Kart Racers 3: Slime Speedway is a competent karting game. It looks nice, there’s plenty of single player content, and it boasts a strong roster of characters and tracks. But did we need another game in the series? Could the new content and characters not simply be an expansion to the previous release? Questions we’ll never know the answer to. If you already own Nickelodeon Kart Racers 2, you’re not exactly getting a completely new experience. But if you’re new to the franchise and enjoy easy-going karting games, you likely won’t be disappointed with what is undoubtedly the best entry yet.

“Nickelodeon Kart Racers 3: Slime Speedway” es un juego curioso. En muchos aspectos, es superior a su predecesor: la inclusión de voces ayuda bastante (aunque me enerva que se escuchen tan fuerte en la escena de celebración, y que encima, en ella los personajes no muevan sus bocas), y tenemos una gran variedad de personajes, pistas, e ítems para personalizar a nuestros conductores y sus vehículos. Pero por otra parte, se trata de una experiencia algo sosa, en donde los controles no terminan de convencer (me pasó demasiadas veces que el juego no registraba mis Tokyo Drifts al pasar por las curvas, por ejemplo), y el desempeño técnico está bastante mal. “Nickelodeon Kart Racers 3: Slime Speedway” debió ser mucho mejor, especialmente considerando que ya tuvieron otros dos intentos de los cuales aprender. Quizás, la cuarta terminará siendo la vencida.

Nickelodeon Kart Racers 3: Slime Speedway is the latest addition to the Nickelodeon Kart Racers series. Even before logging in for the first time, I was excited to explore the maps and learn the fundamental mechanics of driving in the Nickelodeon universe that I had grown up watching. Needless to say, I was more than eager to give the game a shot. Did the game live up to my expectations? Find out in this Rapid Review.

En definitiva, me he divertido con Nickelodeon Kart Racers 3: Slime Speedway jugándolo con gente, pero, ahora bien, considero que es un título que se queda a medio camino si lo comparas con otros similares dentro del mercado. Sus fallos, mientras jugaba, me han dificultado la experiencia al estar jugando, tanto es así que alguna vez he tenido que soltar el mando y esperar a que mi compañero de juego termine la carrera porque mi personaje se quedaba parado por algún bug.

On paper, Nickelodeon Kart Racers 3 does so much right, with a bigger roster of racers, more kart customisation, and the oft-requested addition of voice acting, which does add to the atmosphere considerably. But on the track it's hugely disappointing, with a severely reduced frame rate compared to its predecessor, making everything feel more sluggish as a result.
