Mario Kart 9 (The Random Block Original)

"Komputer napotkał problem i należy go uruchomić ponownie. Trwa zbieranie informacji o błędzie. Po zakończeniu tego procesu komputer zostanie automatycznie uruchomiony ponownie."-Mark Evans and his computer while in BSOD.

Mario Kart 9 is a series of two video games made by Power Paintbrush Productions in collaboration with Nintendo and The Random Block. The game is split into Mario Kart 9: Obsidian (for Nintendo Switch) and Mario Kart 9: Platinum (for Nintendo Platinum). The game marks the debut of "time flow mechanic", which is activated by touching a purple boost pad. It slows down time and objects around the players allowing them to navigate through the race and dodge obstacles more easily. Also, the Mission Mode from Mario Kart DS returns.

Gameplay
Mario called his friends to race around a total of 40 tracks, performing tricks, soaring on the gliders, diving to watery depths, taking rides up walls and ceilings, or even slowing down the time to beat obstacles more easily!

Each of these tracks are split into Grand Prix Cups, with 4 per track. Five of these cups are original tracks - they're the Mushroom Cup, Flower Cup, Egg Cup, Star Cup and the Special Cup, and another five cups contain retro tracks - they're the Shell Cup, Banana Cup, Brick Cup, Leaf Cup and the Lightning Cup. Both versions have the same courses in the cups!

New to the Mario Kart 9 is the time flow mechanic! Driving over a purple boost pad will activate this all-new and all-decadent technique, what slows down both time and the objects that surround the racer allowing them to navigate through the race and dodge obstacles more easily.

Choose the Practice mode! It allows players to freely drive through the choosed courses as long as they want do. This mode is recommended for many beginner players and is a great mode to practice racing on courses. An option to choose the engine class and number of computer players can be in during this mode; players can choose up to nine computer players at once and can set the difficulty to easy, standard or hard! Upon 200cc engine class is unlocked, players will now have the option to set the computer difficulty to extreme.

Fans of Mario Kart DS released for Nintendo DS in 2005 will celebrate the return of Mission Mode! It has 10 levels with 8 missions and a boss battle where you can customize the character and vehicle. Also, a new Mission Creator Mode will be full of mission creating fans! Here, you create custom missions and put them in your levels.
