Vehicles get electrocuted, burnt, sawn apart or crushed, while tyres smear sauce and icing across the track surface and a hungry dog gazes up from below. Others have you racing through a greenhouse and around an icy pond, around a tool-strewn workshop or across pool and air-hockey tables. Some have you speeding around messy kitchen tables, dodging a whisk and the mess of a massive bake-off or the residue of a breakfast fry-up. The top-down view and relative steering take some getting used to – and was the handling really this skittish first time around? – but there’s a decent sense of rough and tumble to the racing, while the Nerf-branded weapons add a little extra aggression to the mix. There’s nothing actually that much wrong with the basic racing, which sees tiny toy monster trucks, police cars, hovercraft, dumper trucks, tanks and more facing off on a series of household tracks running through kitchens, greenhouses and games rooms.
