It’s certainly not lacking ideas and is quite unique in the racing genre. Platform is about trying to get to a location with as few retries as possible (you can fall off the track) and puzzle lets you place building blocks to create a path through to the end. Racing is, as it sounds, you in a car, screaming around a track in as fast a time as possible, with the other racers simply representing the gold, silver and bronze times that you’re trying to beat. The DS game includes three game types, racing, platform and puzzle, which have made their way over from the PC original. The problem is that these features haven’t been capitalised on like they should have. The handheld can go online, it’s touch screen is ideal for creating and the gameplay isn’t too complex for the little machine to handle. In theory, the game seemed like a great fit for the DS. There’s also a big community of track designers, so you’re never short of new content. Releasing the brilliant Trackmania Nations for free helped a lot, but the fun arcade racing with an emphasis on time trials had a lot to do with it. Trackmania has gained quite a following on the PC over the last few years.
