The gameplay in the team-based kart racer is engaging and offers a unique twist by grouping players into teams, enhancing cooperation and strategy. While the power-ups and voice acting may not impress, the solid controls, high-quality level design, and overall fun factor make it a worthwhile experience. The team mechanic adds depth and encourages players to support each other, distinguishing it from other racing games in the genre.
- “The game carves itself a fun, unique niche in the kart racer genre with its team-focused gameplay.”
- “It's easy to pick up and play and the team mechanic works well, giving the game a great amount of depth.”
- “The team emphasis tries to work in the same way the team red vs. blue gameplay did with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, by separating you into 4 teams: Vector, Amy, Sonic, and Dr. Robotnik.”
- “The team mechanic actually alters the way you play the game.”
- “In that regard, the later tracks can be an unexpectedly strong deterrent on the game’s focus - team gameplay.”

The music in the game is generally well orchestrated and catchy, enhancing the overall experience, though some users criticize the voice acting and certain lyrical tracks as cringeworthy.

- “For years, Sonic games have been catering to little kids, and the series never matured enough to remove the utter cringe from its voice acting and soundtrack, and this game is no different.”
- “Luckily, most of the music is well orchestrated and catchy, but the voice acting and a couple of songs that contain lyrics can be pretty awful, so expect to be tempted to skip the 'cut-scenes' that occur between adventure levels and plug your ears when necessary.”

The story in the game is minimal but appreciated, adding a unique element to the racing genre. However, players find the gameplay frustrating due to mechanics that lead to losing progress, particularly with the loss of rings after being hit and the difficulty of completing certain missions.
- “Also, it's really cool to have a storyline in a racing game.”
- “The first one of them is the story alone.”
- “There is a story to it, not much of one, but I appreciate the effort.”
- “The reason I say this is because this game is a little frustrating; if you have tons of rings and you get hit, you lose them all, and there are these pointless missions that take multiple tries to complete.”
