We should spend it far because it’s very rare for old outdated game to come back in the modern day. Especially in the mobile space.

I don't know what the bad reviews are talking about. Yes the controls are simple, but that's what makes the game so great. Maybe these reviewers just gave in too easily, it's not any easy game; some of the challenges are REALLY hard. But having hard challenges is what makes it fun, especially when you just miss the goal. It keeps you coming back. The more you play the better the game gets. You can use different cars with different abilities, slower/ faster turning, based on the challenge. Can't wait for more tracks and challenges.

But the bad handling of the control system and the difficulty brought by that just make this game feels...mediocre. There is only one available control system in the game --- tapping without any scales. Honestly, I suffered from trying to turn my car efficiently, and lost my interest soon. Some of the missions in the game are impossible to pass through with the bad handling & controlling. I would cheer out if they can include a gravity controlling system in the next game vision, in order to make this game great.

The ice adds an extra challenge that makes it even more fun. Hope to see more tracks and cars soon. Great job Protostar!

Stupid setting for turning
When you want to turn right, you have to release your left finger, that means, you have to send a single to your left hand when turning right!

if you enjoy racing on the edge of control, sliding like mad, you'll love this game. if you don't what is wrong with you? ;)

Ad-nauseum, or fork over $2.
Latest update delivers mandatory video ad after EVERY short game. Ridiculous. I’ll give them a week to change this, otherwise it’s time to hit the X.

This game WAS kinda fun before the 1.2.0 update.
