Yes without a doubt my favorite thing about all Apple Arcade games is there is no ads games such as my Tom+ and Crossy road+ are definitely a great example my Tom+ gives you diamonds every 3 hours Crossy road+ allows you to get coins by doing objectives. Apple Arcade is great and let’s get back on topic now. So is it better than asphalt 9 well yes but no if you like car games you most likely will like open road racing whenever I play car games I look for games with something new in them unlocking locked levels grabbing high scores and like I said before something new which brings me on the topic of top 3 games 1 the best 3 great 3:sonic at the Olympic (Games this is good it’s great Its not enough to be a one but certainly great)~not on Apple Arcade~ 2:hot lava (yep this game is basically the floor is lava if you played this game you know the floor is lava if you play this daily you love the floor is lava is you play this every hour start trying a new idea like grabbing pillows and jumping from plllow to pIllow now number 1 1: ROBLOX OFC( roblox is basically everything I said I wanted in a game without xp and it is online so beat that basically play all 3 of those games and play this game and stay in school and learn before you start rageing when you don’t have the right car for a race bye 👋🏽:)😅😃

I really like this game — it’s very comparable to Gran Turismo, and I’ve been playing on my iPad. But I’ve been having an issue with the resources clock for a few days now that is honestly making me want to just game and forget about it. I reached my resource limit two days ago, when a 24hr clock began (indicating when the resources would refill); it ran down over the day and then showed “0s” left, a few hours too early. I restarted the game hoping to be able to get resources, but the clock just stayed at 0s. When I opened the app again last night, the clock HAD reset, only now saying 21hrs remaining. When I opened the app today, it’s back to 0 sec — again, too early for the full countdown, and cutting me out of resources for yet another day. The medium and hard races are far as I can tell, impossible to win without upgrading a car, which requires those resources. So this issue alone is huge. (And devs, before you ask, no, I’m not going to send in a separate email to describe the issue. I’ve done that here, which is enough time spent on it.) Update: the resources issue has seemed to resolve itself, but I’m not super happy about how repetitive the races are getting at this point. I found that the easiest way to win is just to floor it right away, ram into other cars or fences/walls during turns to get ahead, and then take it easy. The payout for getting 1st place beats the very minor penalty for crashing. This should be changed: the races would be MUCH more difficult and exciting if crashing really did wreck your car, and/or if you had to pay for repairs after a race.

This game is interesting. I’m always impressed with the way Apple Arcade games look, and this one is no exception. It is still a mobile game though, so don’t expect an abundance of shrubbery or clear cut shadow lines. (The shadows still look better than most mobile games and there’s a decent bit of shrubbery.) Compared to asphalt 9, the gameplay is very different. It’s a lot less explosive, and has a similar feel to Forza minus the open world and campaign. There’s not a ton of content, the maps feel similar, there’s no vehicle damage, and progression can feel slow at times. That being said, it’s still very fun. If I had to change a couple things, I’d like to have a different car purchasing setup. Only being able to choose between 2 cars and having to wait a hour before it refreshes gets annoying. I also think the the mechanic XP shouldn’t include the cosmetics. Having to stop progress on engine upgrades so I can upgrade paint isn’t very intuitive. I’d also like vehicle damage, there’s just something fun about pulling a first place win in a car that looks like it just got out of a crusher. Overall good fun, good graphics, decent soundtrack, very well optimized with minimal load times for iPhone 13 pro, and the lack of ads and micro transactions is really the cherry on top. Solid 8/10, would recommend if you like realistic multiplayer driving sims.
