New game modes are awesome and the tracks are fine.One problem : random collisions. There are more in this DLC than in the base game and the first DLC. It's annoying, not a big issue, but when it happens, it's hard to stay calm.If you like the game, buy both DLCs.. new game modes, new track, new gran prix and new coins its a well enhanced dlc. After playing the criminally underrated base game, I couldn't wait for more content to be added - paid or otherwise - and imagined what could be added. I didn't imagine the frustration and cruelty the Tropical Ice pack would cause me to endure. This pack offers 3 new Championships, one for each of the car classes, featuring two new seasonal maps and two new game modes. The maps are the real show-stealer, or at least they attempt to be. One takes place inside a beach bar, the other on a wintry holiday resort. There's surprisingly little re-use of assets, and most of the maps' setpieces seem completely original. Even reskinned items are done cleverly and don't detract at all from the map. The actual tracks themselves need a lot more work done to them. The amount of times one gets hung on corners, or misjudges what should be a fairly easy slide are innumerable, leading to crashes and falling off the tracks many a time. Mercifully the game's unfairness is really just kept to its tracks - the difficulty in the modes seems genuine.... for the most part.I don't remember the controls pre-Tropical Ice Pack being as grindingly wound up as they are here, with even the Supercars failing to make sharp turns and recover from the speed drop quickly enough. Considering how fast you have to be in the highly demanding time trials and against the speedy AI, this makes the game feel meanspirited. I don't mind the rival racers being faster than me, especially when there's powerups galore, but when the cars don't feel as responsive as they should (especially now the other cars' collisions are a lot harder on you), it's like Playrise Digital are spiteful of you beating the game and paying for the priviledge of paying for new stuff out of enthusiasm.The modes are the only good thing about this pack, and if they were incorporated into the original cups I'd gladly redo them all just to experience them. Checkpoint and Overtake are self-explanatory; the former requires you to go through a slalem of checkpoints, awarding time for each one you go through successfully and deducting time for when you miss them. Overtake mode requires you to overtake as many vehicles as possible before time runs out. With these game modes I felt like I was constantly making progress with each checkpoint and car overtaken, whereas the constant fear of wasting 3 minutes in the hope of getting just one measly star so I can progress in the Championship made me miserable. There's new special events too, so if you want to replay these specific modes and maps you'll get bonus coins and XP for trying the individual maps and modes.But what is there left to spend gold on? There's no new skins or cars, so unless you own the other DLC there's virtually no point in playing this unless you fancy getting riled up about poor controls and frustrating time requirements. It's a shame given how I love both the Hawaiian and icy setting (two of my favourite kinds of place), but it's marred by its wonky design and unrealistic requirements to progress.Given how I'd waited months for the controller support issue to be fixed so I could play this, you can't say I went in expecting to hate it (especially if you see how much time I've put into the game). It gives a horrific first impression, and only continues to be a slog that reminds you there's another cheaper DLC you could've bought. If you're desperate for this, wait for a sale. It's not even worth its low price of \u00a33.99.. Right now I do not recommend this addon, as its not out yet???, I've purchased it, added to library?, nothing is there, nothing in the game, no Tropical Ice Pack! Fix this $h!t!. I'm just posting this review as a counter point to the other fella on here. I purchased the DLC, and everything worked as advertised. If you enjoy the base game, I would recommend this DLC, particularly while it's on sale. Cheers.. The difficulty compared to the rest of the game is very different.This i dislike a lot, why did i buy this dlc?. Yeah, there's a reason why the Tropical Ice DLC for Table Top Racing: World Tour has mixed reviews as of me writing this: It's kinda frustrating.For comparison's sake, the base game was a competent kart racer that didn't have a strong sense of identity. The Supercharger DLC gives you free cars that make the game too easy. This DLC adds two new locations, NO CARS, that are more frustrating than fun thanks to physics glitches. "Life's a Beach" is the nicer looking of the two IMO, but the scenery is ruined by some really annoying bug where your car will get bumped off track because you went down an incline too quickly. "Yellowsnow Piste" adds an arctic locale to the game's location list, which sounds cool on paper, but sadly gets tedious thanks to rogue snowballs that will nearly knock you off course with no warning. With time, you'll BARELY see them coming, but that's it and they can slow you down a lot if you're not using a bigger vehicle. (And that's without mentioning the bumpy snow section of the course.)What a shame, too, that the two DLC's to this game have only made it worse. One makes the whole game too easy, and the other adds new events that can drive you insane if you're not careful, and if being careful doesn't sound fun in a kart racer, then yeah, trust me when I say that it's not.
