Billy the Wizard: Rocket Broomstick Racing is an arcade racing game in which we use modern, feature-rich flying brooms as vehicles. This production parodies games based on the license of movies about the adventures of the most famous young sorcerer - Harry Potter. It was developed by Data Design Interactive studio, which has a few other not very serious titles in their output - they created, among others, Action Girlz Racing, Austin Cooper S Racing and Hamster Heroes.

In Billy the Wizard: Rocket Broomstick Racing the main single player mode is Broomstick Grand Prix - we take part in flying broom races in which we compete with seven other teenage sorcerers. During the race, however, there are no fair play rules - we can use numerous shortcuts, use various power-ups (for example, giving us access to special ammunition or accelerating the broom), and even treat our rivals with spells. Besides, our mission is not limited only to surpassing our opponents, as we also try to collect the Wonders' Books of Wonders, which have fled from the Magical Library. From time to time, powerful dragons will also stand in our way, threatening the Wizard's Castle. In order to defeat them you have to attack individual parts of the beast's body until they die of exhaustion. Certainly, the tasks are not facilitated by treacherous impinges sitting on the castle walls trying to shoot down the wizard with the help of fireballs.

Obviously, the creators have also prepared other modes of the game, among others: Orb Domination, Magical Ring Quest, Spell Book Chaos or Broomstick Battle Mode, which is mainly focused on fighting between wizards. We are not doomed to play alone, we can also face up to four other players on a split screen. Unfortunately, there is no possibility of playing online. We choose our virtual incarnation from among eight available wizards, differing not only in appearance, but also in skills.

The control system has been adapted to the keyboard, but if you have one, the broom control becomes a bit more convenient. Graphic design Billy the Wizard: Rocket Broomstick Racing is kept in a cartoon style and certainly not too detailed.
