It is pricier than 72 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 85 percent. The games it most resembles do better on the same math. Golf Gang ($9.99, scores 55) and SpeedRunners ($14.99, scores 84) both outscore it.

What players say
Blast of a game. Great graphics and music. Not so hard as ppl are saying, on normal it is possible to win 1st with small margin if you learn how to drift. Buy it !!!

The tracks are engaging, with lots of technical elements and bright, popping colours, and the cars, whilst adorned with some rather tacky looking aero elements, are otherwise smartly designed. All of these things are tied together with solid graphics and performance, and a pretty decent...
