Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that Turbo: Super Stunt Squad is a movie-based racer with stunts moves that can be performed when you snail in in the air from banking. The Wii, DS, and 3DS versions contain some "comic mischief" that is not present in the other console versions. There's nothing in the game worth raising an eyebrow over, other than characters dropping salt from under their body to imply feces.

What's it about?
Is it any good?
Yes, but despite what you might think by the game's marketing materials, it's not a straightforward racing game -- it focuses heavily on stunts, which is a pleasant surprise. The gameplay is accessible, fun, and somewhat attractive with its colorful graphics. It has many unlockable elements, which add extra incentive and replayability -- including new modes, characters, outfits, power-ups, and more. In fact, kids may enjoy designing and upgrading the character shells and abilities.
The computer-controlled racers have somewhat predictable paths, but you can also team up with a sibling or friend in multiplayer modes, on the same television, on the Xbox 360, PS3 and Wii U versions (and race with up to four players on the Wii).
Families can talk about...
Families can talk about marketing. This video game is based on the movie Turbo and is released at the same time of the movie. Why do you think developers do this? Did you buy this game because you saw the movie?
Did you like the racing aspects of this game best? Or the skateboarding-type stunts?
