On this week’s episode of The TouchArcade Show, we dig into Real Racing 3. We dedicate the entire first half of our show to it, actually. We discuss what makes it good, what makes the model feel weird, and even go Next Level on it by talking about how some of the current App Store trends have informed its core design. If that wasn’t enough, we even get into some of the controversy surrounding it because that seemed like a smart idea at the time. We’ll see how that goes!
Later, we do get to other games. QuestLord and HackyCat polish off our games section, while a bit of Tetris news lightens the mood. Of course, we also get to your questions and feedback.

This week’s episode of The TouchArcade Show is sponsored by Like A Crocodile’s Tapforss.
Tapforss, $0.99 – If you’re good at tapping you can be good at Tapforss, an intense arcade game that challenges you to avoid everything you see as you bob your way to the exit. It’s a bit like juggling a glass chandelier while riding a mechanical bull through an air duct. Only instead of juggling you’re tapping, and the air duct is a cave filled with sharp stabby things. To make it even more interesting, you’ll come across obstacles like gravity-inverting barriers and semi-sentient triangles that shoot spikes at you. Good luck with that, especially if you’re interested in a decent score!
Tapforss is available from the App Store for Free and supports iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch devices. It’s a dangerous world. Tap with care!
