Unforgiving but addictive
You drive fast racing pods across futuristic speed tracks, competing with AI for the first place. Game modes include championsip, single race, time trial and 2 player mode. 2 championships are available, the second is unlocked after beating the first. Tracks in both championships are basically the same, but pods are much faster, hence more difficult to maneuver. You have limited retries to beat each track, so get used to replaying whole championship from beginning. This also helps to remember the layout, because it's impossible to take the first place without predicting each turn. Hitting a wall reduces your speed drastically, and without flying over boost spots getting in the lead is very hard. Various powerups are scattered across each track to help you slow down enemies, shield you from their attacks and gain speed. Controlling your pod is hard at top speed, but not impossible, it takes a lot of practice and patience, but you really value each victory.
Techno soundtrack is awesome, perfect for high speed experience. Graphics are simple but well polished, each track feels unique.
Overall this game feels a bit like it was made for an arcade machine, each retry meant to suck your coins. But I can't way to try out the sequels.
