The genre of arcade racing has long been one of my favourites, from the days of Super Sprint to the Amiga PD gem High Octane, the isometric fun of Super Off-Road, the inevitable Micro Machines and not forgetting PS2 classic Mashed (and under-appreciated pseudo-sequel Wrecked) the genre is a staple of gaming days at mine for literally decades. Table Top Racing is a neat spin on the genre by bringing in a Mario Kart sensibility to the miniaturised racing theme, the game, however, has a history stretching back to 2013 that does cast a shadow on the current Switch release.
