Mini Review: Mini Motor Racing X - A Bite-Sized Appetiser Between Rounds Of Mario Kart

Mini by name, mini by nature. It takes an awful lot for a racing game to stand out from the crowd these days. With so many options available, from realistic sims like GRID Autosport to, well, Mario Kart, there’s pretty much something for everyone.
