Rumble Racing Star Review: A Fun, Free-to-Play Kart Racing Adventure

Rumble Racing Stars is a fast-paced, arcade-style kart racing game for mobile and PC with integrated blockchain elements. 

Through skilled gameplay and completing challenges, you earn $RRS, the game’s ERC-20 token. $RRS can be used to upgrade your car or cashed out through the in-game wallet. The game is still rolling out NFT integrations, but the foundations for play-to-earn are already taking shape.

Gameplay

The driving itself feels great, with tight controls and responsive drifting around corners. Races are short, frantic bursts as you torpedo opponents or speed boost to the finish. There are six game modes ranging from standard races to time trials to a “cops and robbers” escape mode. Power-ups like oil slicks and rockets add to the chaos. Overall, the moment-to-moment racing is extremely fun. 

The gameplay captures the rush of classics like Mario Kart and Crash Team Racing. These games offer similar gameplay mechanics, where players race against each other, utilize power-ups to gain an advantage, and earn boosts through drifting. Additionally, each character in Rumble Racing Star, similar to Crash Team Racing, possesses unique special skills that can be strategically deployed during races.

Graphics

The game’s visuals are colorful, cartoonish, and visually appealing. While not pushing the boundaries of mobile graphics, the art style complements the lighthearted nature of the game and creates a charming and vibrant racing environment. The sound design is impressive, with various sound effects and character commentary adding to the overall liveliness and excitement of the races. The frame rate can occasionally dip, but mostly maintains smooth 60fps. The lobby UI is polished and intuitive. The sound design is excellent, from the voice-acted announcer to the characters yelling taunts mid-race.

Events

Rumble Racing Star regularly hosts engaging events with exciting rewards. The latest event, offering a $1000 prize pool, encourages players to participate in as many first-place finishes as possible. This event format adds a layer of excitement and competition, keeping players engaged. The Discord channel also helps new players get started.

Players also earn silver and gold currencies plus premium points to redeem rewards. Joining a club unlocks group activities and sticker exchanges. With 25 club grades, there are benefits to advancing your crew.

Community

The game boasts a dedicated and active community, evident in the bustling Discord server where players share strategies, discuss updates, and participate in community events. This sense of community adds to the overall experience and fosters a sense of camaraderie amongst players. The Discord server also helps new players get started.

Unique Aspects

While Rumble Racing Star doesn’t boast groundbreaking originality, it distinguishes itself through its accessibility and free-to-play experience. The generous reward system allows players to unlock new characters, karts, and customization options without spending a dime, providing an enjoyable experience for everyone. The game offers a variety of exciting game modes to cater to different player preferences. From the competitive thrills of “Race Mode” and “Tournament” to the solo challenge of “Time Attack” and the cooperative fun of “Friendly Match,” there’s a mode to suit everyone.
