Trackmania

June 13, 2023 - Reading time: ~1 minute - Category: game library project

Trackmania is the latest in the Trackmania series, and saw the series shift to a free to play model. I like Trackmania, and have played a bit of Trackmania Turbo on the PS$. That one was most single player, while this one is more of a multiplayer affair.

The main concept of Trackmania is time trials. Tracks are really short, 30-60 seconds, and unlike traditional racing games there are no other racers. You just race yourself or ghosts competing for the best time. This version of the game has a couple multiplayer modes, and they work pretty well. Matches are quick, and the ranked mode pits teams of 3 against each other, scoring points based on finishing times in a series of rounds. 

The free to play version comes with a rotational series of tracks, while there are options to pay for more content. I haven't felt that was necessary - there are a good amount of tracks so they shouldn't get stale unless you play quite a bit.

Fun little timewaster game that doesn't try to do too much.

Verdict: Endless/Multiplayer

My name's Mike, and this is the Lore Depository - my spot online where I can write out my thoughts on games, books, tech, history, and anything else I find interesting. 

My biggest project is my Game Library Project. I have a ton of games collected throughout the years, and have barely played any of them. Check out the linked post to learn more about the project, and click here to be taken to the category page where you can see all my posts for the project.

Other content comes mainly in 3 forms:
Reviews, where I post longer-form writeups
Thoughts, short & quick first impressions posts
Guides, detailed how-tos and walkthroughs
