    • “The art style is fantastic; it's not realistic, but I believe it's a spiritual successor to one of the penny racers games. It's a top-down arcade racer, which is pretty cool.”
    • “Graphics are now buttery smooth and super crisp.”
    • “The graphics are incredibly beautiful, high definition, and I really like the fact that it has so many different game maps.”
    • “Even if there are options to turn down the graphics in the menu for performance, the fact I cannot load the game to do so is unacceptable.”

    • “The only thing is the graphics suffered a bit on my buddy's Nexus 10 (the car kept flickering).”

    • “The mechanics and graphics are sound, even a cut above normal, however the art and menus are very low-res and the maps leave a lot to be desired.”
    • “The game mechanics are pretty simple and tracks can be a bit repetitive but the package as a whole is fun enough for this one to get high marks.”
    • “It could really use more gameplay ideas though (like various kinds of power-ups, or hidden shortcuts in tracks) because it gets a little boring after a few hours.”

    • “I bought the game only to find out that it is unplayable due to a very buggy control system.”
