Dreamworks Super Star Kartz

The game's story revolves around the main character, known only as "The Star Player", who is tasked with finding a way to restore the magic of the Dreamworld. The player must compete in Circuit Races, Time Trials, Battle Mode, and Challenge Mode to unlock new tracks, characters, and items.

Gameplay is fairly typical of kart racers, with instant boosts from the starting line, numerous weapons, jumps, and cartoon characters on small go-karts. Each character has a specific special move, known as a Star Move, that is activated once the player picks up five stars from around the track. Players can perform stunts when airborne, draft by driving behind opponent karts, and the classic kart-racer standard of drifting around turns.

As with other kart racers, the main focus of the game is the Circuit Race, with several cups to compete in. Each cup has three tracks with themes from across all the Dreamworks properties in the game. Gold, Silver, or Bronze medals are awarded depending on performance and place when crossing the finish line. Beyond the Circuit mode, there are Time Trials, a Battle Mode, and a Challenge Mode.

Challenge Mode features specific challenges such as a race with only Star Moves, or straight racing with no weapons or items. There are also several dozen Dreamworks logos strewn throughout the game to be collected, some collected from Time Trials, other collected physically during races.
