Drome Racers is a multi-terrain racing experience that will leave young speedsters breathless. Players take on the role of Max Axel who has trained intensely for the challenging Drome Championship and wants to take home the trophy.

Getting behind the wheel of high-tech cars based on the 2002 LEGO Racers construction toy range, players must face tough Multi-Challenge Races (MCR's). Each race is a seamless set of stages, mixing tracks with realistically stunning city, mountain and canyon environments. Unlike its predecessors, Drome Racers is a fast-paced "anything goes" game that will appeal to all ages and abilities with its varied, realistic terrains; sleek, LEGO Technic style cars; and road, off-road or drag racing.

Emulation Information

16:9

Drome Racers has a native 16:9 display option, but it requires enabling it in its internal options and setting Dolphin's Aspect Ratio graphics setting to "Auto". Using the widescreen hack with this title is not recommended.

Text/Dialogue Desyncs

Voice acting will lag behind or shoot ahead of the text boxes that show their actual lines. This is a game bug and is normal.

Inconsistent Loading Screens

Loading screens in Dolphin run uncapped and are very erratic. It is recommended to keep vsync off, or else loads will take a very long time. The same thing happens on console as well.

Problems

There are no reported problems with this title.
