About

Go Kart Island is an open world kart racer set on the fictional (if you can believe that) island called... Go Kart Island.
A full story mode with 34 different events and 150 collectables to find in the open world.
Giraffes? Turtles? SHEEP? We’ve got ‘em all. 32 different animals to chat with, race against, and unlock!
Aim for the gold trophy in 84 challenges, adding a new twist and replayability to events completed in story mode.
A variety of items to use on opponents and obstacles to avoid, including the homing pizza (delivered in 3 seconds or less), the splatula (get it? Splatula! Cause it splats…) and the aptly named Squish-E-Boi Cube.
Fully honkable kart horn. HONK!
Compatible with the demo which features the first 5 events of the story mode, so you can try before you buy. Or just buy, I have a mortgage to pay.

The island caught up in BIG RACE fever, where the participants compete to become GO KART CHAMPION.
Lachlan the highland cow arrives on the island full of hope to win the BIG RACE, but the weasel Mayor has an election campaign to fund and demands you raise 1,000 coins for an "entry fee". Talk about a corrupt official. But just HOW can you raise such a ludicrous amount of coins?
Well, you're in luck! The inhabitants of Go Kart Island have no shortage of activities they would like you to partake in and they offer cold, hard cash as a reward. And all of them just happen to be mega fun, guaranteed!*

What good is a karting game without races? Classic karting rules apply, use items to take out your opponents and reach the finish in 1st place. But watch out, some races require you to perform side objectives so not everything is a straight dash to the finish!
Circuit Race: A classic race around multiple laps of a circuit with little other shenanigans in sight. Except from the obstacles and items you can use to overtake and fend off your rivals, of course.
Checkpoint Race: Beat your rivals to first place is not enough, you also have to beat the concept of TIME ITESELF. Reach checkpoints before the timer runs out!
Collect Race: Coins are littered around the circuit and you have to get them all and win the race. Why? I dunno.
Elimination Race: If you’re in last place at the end of the lap you’re eliminated. Nobody knows what happens to people that are eliminated, but it definitely means you’re out of the race.
Death Race: Avoid being hit by items and obstacles - if you run out of health you’re dead! Well not really dead, but your hopes of winning the race certainly are.
Street Race: An unsanctioned and possibly illegal (whatever that means) event where you race from one point on the island to another. Look out for traffic as you let your rivals eat your dust.

Test your speedy driving skills in time trials. The islanders are an impatient bunch and need your help to get to their destination as fast as possible but INEXPLICABLE obstacles tend to appear out of nowhere. It’d be a bit boring otherwise wouldn’t it?
Things are lost, and you have to track them down and run them over with your kart as fast as possible. Well, how else are you supposed to collect things? Slowly and with care? That would be stupid.
How about a classic high speed chase? Perhaps you have to pursue a mouse whose wife suspects him of having an affair (a.k.a. mouse-dultery) or even escape yourself from the local karting gang of ducks. Yeah, ducks. Quack!
There's even a CRAZY event where you have to TAXI people around the island to deliver them to their destinations and rush to get the next fare.

Every moment on Go Kart Island isn't taken up by taking part in some kind of wild event. There's a whole island to explore! From the mountain top, to the airport, to the lagoon there is much to see and do. Find coins, gems and smash the mayor's advertising boards as you take in a seemingly impossible amount of diverse scenery and climates for a single island.

Really enjoyed this chill little karting adventure. It's packed with weird little side jobs and fun events, and the open world gives it a nice laid-back vibe between races. Driving feels good, the characters are charming, and there’s just enough chaos and nonsense to keep it interesting. Doesn’t take itself too seriously, which I love. Had a great time.
The island is diverse and fun to explore. The wide roster of characters and the witty dialogue made the the story a blast to play through. The gameplay feels influenced by some really strong titles such as Mariokart, Simpsons: Hit and Run, Diddy Kong Racing and a fair bit of Banjo-Kazooie in there as well, if you enjoyed any of those classic games this one will be right up your street.
Really fun karting game. The driving feels great, and loads of stuff to find. The writing is funny too. Flippin' pizza slices can do one though.
A mix between Mario Kart and Micro Machines, but with the open world of Burnout Paradise and Forza Horizon. A charming and funny go-karting game with a large variety of racing events. The writing and humour is absolutely spot on without being over-the-top. Enough content to keep me entertained; worth the price of admission. kart so fast you'll fard and shid pant
I have blasted through story mode (mayor antagonised, BIG RACE completed), and started to have a go at the challenges. Driving around and exploring is all-round fun, but spending time with Go Kart island inhabitants has been my favourite part of the game - the sharp writing and humour are as much of this games DNA as is the racing - fun wee gem to blast through.
a great little game with lots to keep you busy! i'm about halfway through story mode which has been cute and engaging, the controls are straightforward, and the races are enough of a challenge that you may find yourself cursing out farm animals. being rewarded for crashing into billboards is the cherry on top. 11/10
Go Kart Island has been super fun so far. The tracks are interesting, the island is full of charm, and the goofy characters give it so much personality. The races feel smooth and satisfying, and I’m excited to see what else the game has to offer.
This is a great family game, especially for the price. You can really tell that the developer has a lot of experience and passion with this genre. There are some really interesting takes on the 'missions' (races) and the 'Crazy Taxi' inspired mode was addictive in itself and had me playing repeatedly. I was really happy that this mode (and all others) could easily be accessed from the main menu, this really encourages replaying your favourite race types and areas. At first I found the game quite easy, even as a person who rarely plays racing games, but once I increased the difficulty it became a nice challenge. This meant that often I'd have to learn the layout of the race and /or the placement of items in order to proceed. The story and writing had me laughing, it is a very British sense of humour that works really well for me. The humour is good for all the family, there isn't anything that kids would pick up on but it will still make the adults laugh. I'd highly recommend this, especially for the low entry price!
Go Kart Island is just ridiculous amount of fun. You can really tell that the developer poured their heart and soul into this project, the amount of content is truly amazing. If you’re looking for a game that’s polished, unique, and just pure fun, you absolutely have to try Go Kart Island. I highly recommend it!
Really enjoying play Go Kart Island so far!! Races are fun and love all the characters and the stories around them - really funny writing and loving exploring the island and trying to get all the different kart colours! One day I will destroy that dastardly mayor at street racing, just you wait and see.
