Critic Reviews
Pure Nintendo
By Heath Shusterman-ZimmermanMy time spent with Speedrunners on the Switch was more than enough to change my mind from my previous impression. Overall, it's a solid game for single players, but local co-op is a blast and should be welcome at any gaming party.
NintendoWorldReport
By Brett Posner-FerdmanHowever, the lack of multiple modes and sparse single player content make this package feel like more of a mini-game. With the Switch hosting hundreds of multiplayer games that deliver a similar but fuller experience, like Runbow, it's hard to recommend this one. If you're looking for a more robust multiplayer experience, you may want to look elsewhere.
Video Chums
By A.J. MaciejewskiIt may be a few years old but SpeedRunners holds up fantastically and it's a must-play for any local multiplayer enthusiast.
Nintendo Life
By Dom Reseigh-LincolnIf you're after a new addition to your social multiplayer pile, this is an easy sell. Sure, it's a little old considering its long history on myriad platforms, but it's hard to deny just how enjoyable and easy it is to pick up, even for younger Nintendo Switch owners. The support for local and online multiplayer is great, as is the ability to play through the story mode solo, but the intermittent issues with performance in handheld mode does put a few wrinkles in this hero's costume.
Nindie Spotlight
By Justin NationThis is one of those popular indie titles that seemed like a natural fit for the Switch so it's odd that it took so long to get here but I'm glad it has arrived...
