Fire up the fun as Codemasters reboots the classic table top racing experience in Toybox Turbos.
What it’s like
Toybox Turbos revives the nostalgic joy of top-down, microscopic racing with a modern polish that feels both retro and fresh. The core experience centers on high-speed vehicular combat across oversized, imaginative environments where everyday objects become towering obstacles and tracks. Visually, it excels by rendering tiny vehicles in grand settings, capturing the whimsical scale of classic tabletop play through impressive art direction and atmospheric detail. The gameplay loop is tight and accessible, prioritizing chaotic fun over technical simulation. While single-player modes like Time Trial and Overtake offer solid structure, the title truly shines in multiplayer, delivering frantic, social competition that defines its replayability. Audio design complements this energy with punchy effects and a lively score. It captures the essence of Micro Machines-style racing, focusing on immediate gratification, vibrant aesthetics, and the sheer thrill of zooming through miniature worlds rather than deep narrative or complex progression systems.
