Amazon.com Product Description

Racers in this game take on the role of Max Axel in their quest for the championship trophy, getting behind the wheel of any of 18 high-tech LEGO cars based on the LEGO Racers construction toy range. A customization feature also allows players to upgrade their vehicles based on performance, with the top-rated drivers earning the best engine, tire, turbo, and aerodynamic upgrades.

Drome Racers offers three fun and challenging modes of play: quick race for instant play; arcade for both single race (choose the car and track) and time trial (race against the clock to beat the record lap time); and career for the story-based, multi-challenge league racing. Each multi-challenge race is a set of two to seven stages in different environments, mixing tracks with mountain and canyon backdrops. There is also a two-player, split-screen multiplayer mode.

Product Description

LEGO Drome Racers is the ultimate all-terrain racing challenge, where you'll have to survive in the anything-goes racetrack called The Drome!

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Drome Racers (Video Game)

Drome Racers is a very good game. There is lots of action, and it is fast-paced. I like the music, too. On the nine tracks, you can get damaged by crashing or by being hit by a powerup. When your car is severely damaged, black smoke comes out of your car and its performance suffers. You can collect powerups by driving over them, and some of them can be fired at other racers to cause damage and slow them down. There are 18 cars total, with 6 for each of on-road, off-road, and dragster. They all have different top speed, acceleration, handling, and toughness. I like the tracks a lot. My favorite tracks are the Foundry and Red Creek Cavern. The best cars are Dune Striker, Tremor, Torq Racer, and Pulse Concept. This game has lots of action. You could be 1st one second, then two seconds later, you could be 6th just by getting hit by a RC missile or a Hatchet. I would recommend this game to anybody who likes racing.

= Fun:3.0 out of 5 stars 

This is a game I picked up cheap to pass the time until better offerings hit the shelves. There's nothing terribly wrong with it, the game just isn't all that compelling. I liked the sci-fi elements ( Wipeout-style weapons ) and some of the car designs were unique and somewhat cool. I also liked the fact that these futuristic cars were cars with actual wheels and not the ( overdone ) hovercraft type. Another fun feature is that when these Lego-constructed vehicles are zapped by certain weapons they will shed pieces on the track until, at the end of some races, you will finish with little more than the frame intact.
Now for the downside: There really isn't much challenge here and the tracks don't vary much in style or difficulty. Still, this isn't a bad choice for the younger set as it is colorful, easy to get the hang of, and is almost entirely inoffensive. Just be sure not to pay much more than $20 for it.

This game SUCKS! The graphics are okay, but the rest is garbage! If you think this game is actually fun, you haven't played a REAL racing game. It is such a waste of hard-earned money.
