This review is from: Mad Karts of Madagascar (Video Game)

My husband and I gave this game to our son along with Mario Kart for Christmas. He has played this game nonstop since he got it unlike the Mario Kart that he hasn't touched since the first day. I enjoy playing this game and while the graphics might not be the "best" I think it is an easy game for my 5 year old to play. If you have a young child who likes Madagascar they will like this game. The fun thing about this game is that Shrek and Bob are bonus characters that also appear as racers.

This review is from: Mad Karts of Madagascar (Video Game)

This was fun for my 4 year old. She adores the madagascar characters and it was fun for her to see them on a wii game and pick which character she wanted to have. Do not try to compare this to mario kart or you will be disappointed. The concept is the same, but the graphics are nothing like mario's. You will get to race and unlock characters (like shrek...why shrek?) and unlock race courses. You still get mystery boxes but they are different than the mario karts. Overall, its a great game for the younger crowd (I'd say 8 and under because my 10 year old doesn't like it). You can use the same wheel/controller that comes with wii's mario kart, no need to purchase the madagascar wheel unless that is what you want.

We bought this for our 4 year old for Christmas. She LOVES it! It's simple enough she can play it without adult help, and asks to play it every day.
