1/5 ★ – MatthewB_03's review of Mario Kart Tour.

I don't think I've ever hated a mobile game as much as Mario Kart Tour. At first, it sucks you in by making the first few Tours easy and then it makes it harder so you need the karts that give you point bonuses which you can only get through microtransactions and pray to the random numbers that you'll get the kart. The other option of course is just go on every day to get one or two gems every week. It's basic mobile shenanigans which is a problem - I didn't think Nintendo would stoop so low. Super Mario Run being a 1 time payment of £10 or something like that was fine. It's basically a 2D Mario game on your phone but 1/5th the price The real problem is the microtransaction price. It was something like £50 to get Baby Luigi and a few kart pieces. They're so fucking expensive and I hate Nintendo's mobile department for doing this - I would've carried on playing the game because at its core, it is fun. But locking races behind walls made it insufferable
