What is Nouns Kart?
Nouns Kart is a free 3D kart racing game you play in your browser. Pick a Noun, pick a cup and race seven rivals across 20 tracks, from Noun Square and Candy Clouds to Lava Core, Mars Rally and Cosmic Coil.
Hold drift through the corners until the sparks turn blue, orange and then purple for a mini-turbo, pull tricks off ramps and grab items like the Noggle Shell, Pickle Peel and Bass Rocket. Forty of the Nouns also carry their own signature weapon and passive skill, charged from a meter as you race.
Earn coins to upgrade your kart in the Garage and style it with paint, rims, wings and underglow. Play Grand Prix, Single Race, Time Trial against your own ghost, balloon Battle, or 2 Players on one screen. You can even use your phone as a steering wheel.
