Reception[]

In the United Kingdom, the game topped the monthly all-formats sales chart in April 1995. Computer and Video Games said it is a Super Mario Kart lookalike that is "not as good as that seminal piece of software, but damn good fun with up to eight players on a network."[1] Next Generation gave the game four stars out of five, and stated that "SuperKarts offers a perfect blend of strategy and arcade action."[2]
