8 of 25This is so freaking cooL!!!!!!!!
Great concept. I'm on the latest OS update, iPad 2, iPhone 4S and iPhone 4 and it's unplayable. Wouldn't think much about it if the game is only $.99 but this is a little pricy for such poor performance. Waiting for an update to fix the bugs.
Great game, really fun to play with friends and by yourself but people should be able to customize their very own tracks instead of using the tacks they give you ( the starting tracks eventually get boring).
But they asked for a review too soon. I need to play this some more. I'm excited to try the two-iPad track.
Yes, I agree that the use of technology is cool... But, the game is very weak. The cars are very hard to control. Even with the adjusted steering controls they are all over the place. To get back to the menus you have to go to the home screen then reopen the app (if there is an actual way to do this please let me know). I would pay .99 cents for this game. Boo!
I'm not a game developer but it's hard to believe that there aren't better 'iPhone as controller' based games. If someone could figure it out they'd make a ton. Steering in this game makes a good idea unplayable. Sorry.
Please make more tracks and in my house we have 4 iPads make tracks with like 3, 4, or 5 iPads linked together if this is possible it would make this game so much more fun..... And the new line draw split the iPad in to quadrants and have a bank of track pieces that you place and rotate to make the track and make it multi iPad capable.
I didn't know apple products could be this cool especially the duo iPads (Please add a main menu screen button)
