The story in the game is criticized for being overly short and simplified, with many players expressing frustration over its pacing and lack of depth. While it offers some nostalgic elements and unlocks mini-games, the main storyline can be completed in under an hour, leaving many feeling that the content does not justify the price. Overall, the narrative experience is described as lacking and not engaging enough to warrant a lengthy playthrough.
- “Essentially it is broken down like this: you follow a story, where you navigate through different scenes.”
- “The story is short, simple and sweet, and can last you as little as an hour.”
- “Under 4 hours I completed the entire car, I went through the whole story (which has been cut down compared to the original) but the game gave me a nostalgic feeling, I enjoyed myself, all in all a nice and complete game, if you don't compare it to the original.”
- “I didn't bother to play the whole game because the slowness of the story and action really got me frustrated.”
- “But as far as the story mode goes, this game is rough, and frankly, boring.”
- “What we are left with is 9 minigames and a very short story that you can beat within 30 minutes.”

The gameplay is primarily driven by nostalgia, with many players noting that while it features some new mechanics and improved visuals, it lacks innovation and depth. The main story is short, lasting under an hour, and the overall gameplay experience is considered limited, with only a few mini-games available. Many reviewers feel the price does not justify the amount of content, leading to a perception of degraded gameplay compared to the original.
- “But it also adds in new mechanics like a diving suit so you can move through water, sliding walls that you must navigate through, minecarts that drive you to new parts of the map, and teleporters.”
- “There are around 9 mini-games, and that's really the gameplay.”
- “10/10 nostalgia, even with a bit of slow gameplay.”
- “Let's face it, you play this game for the nostalgia, not the innovative gameplay.”
- “While there is content in the game to get your money's worth back, I still think it's way too expensive. 20 I'd prefer, 30 I could live with, but 40 is too much, because while racing is vastly improved, the main story is less than an hour of gameplay and they have cut as much as 18 mini-games I've heard; honestly, I can't remember most of them.”
- “It is a clear visual improvement from the original game, but the gameplay aspect of it has been degraded just like everything else.”
