Summary
Trackmania doesn't need an explanation to some. First released in 2003 for the PC, the game allowed users to create their own tracks and race their minature cars, either locally or online. The highly addictive nature of designing and building your own racing courses is something that's made Trackmania highly popular over the years, and the creators are looking to duplicate their success for gamers on the go with Trackmania DS.
Impressively, most of the features found in the PC versions can be seen in Trackmania DS too, including many of the familiar locales and track scenarios. You have over 300 construction pieces at your disposal to carve your very own mini-Daytona course, or just something with multiple loop de loops and extreme jumps.
The unique input of the Nintendo DS comes in handy during creation, as you use the stylus to move and select construction blocks around the 3D field. The build menu and interface is made to make it easier than ever to create, test and refine your courses before unleashing them on your friends.
You can play your creations across four Nintendo DS consoles using just one game cartridge, so you can virally spread the good word of Trackmania to your mates too. If you've found a fellow 'maniac', you can trade your work with them locally and work to be the best at their level – or make one that's ten times better! The addictive nature of Trackmania has arrived on the DS, and you can't go much wrong for on-the-go creative action.
