Lego Racers (1999) is a kart racing game for the PlayStation where you can build your own vehicles and characters from virtual Lego bricks. Developed by High Voltage Software, it stands out from other racers of the era by letting players construct their karts piece by piece, affecting both appearance and weight distribution. You compete across various themed circuits based on classic Lego sets like Space, Castle, Pirates, and Adventurers, aiming to defeat the reigning champion, Rocket Racer.
How to Play
Race against computer opponents or a friend to finish first in the Circuit mode. Default PlayStation controls in the browser typically use the Arrow Keys for steering, with X, Z, S, and A mapping to the face buttons (Cross, Circle, Square, Triangle) for accelerating, braking, and using items. Press Enter for Start.
Tips
- Upgrade your power-ups: Instead of grabbing different colored bricks, try to collect white bricks. Each white brick upgrades the power of the colored brick you are currently holding, up to three times.
- The ultimate shortcut: A Green brick combined with three white bricks gives you a warp ability that skips you far ahead on the track. If you fall behind, focusing on this combo is the fastest way to catch up.
- Watch your weight: When building your custom kart, remember that a heavier kart is harder to push around but has slower acceleration, while a lighter kart is zippy but easily knocked off course.
