    Ok, downloaded it, played it 3 times, liked a lot what I saw... BUT, since this is a soft launch, suggestion for devs: make a permanent "play unlimited" IAP which removes the timer (that 5/5 wheel that appears at the top right). These timers are always source of problems with people, and I find it too restrictive. Also, the game is grindy enough to have this timer (check what you need to unlock all the cars and you'll understand what I'm talking about...).

    First impressions are good, albeit a bit too grindy in terms of coins/cups to continue, but I have to play more to say for sure.

    Several questions for devs:

    1. Icloud: when this becomes a global launch, will my savegame work in my local App store app?
    2. Stars: if a car costs 5 stars to unlock and another car costs 10 stars to unlock, that means I have to earn 15 stars and spend them, or do they unlock automatically when I reach 5 stars achieved, 10 stars, etc.?

    Thanks.

    Was this game pulled? It doesn't seem to be available in the US.

    I've played a bit more, and it's way too grindy for me. I've spent the 5 wheels I have in 28 minutes and still haven't been able to get enough money for the 2nd car, not to mention any unlocking either, which seem waaaaay too far. Now I have to wait 32 minutes for 1 wheel to replenish (they replenish completely when you level up, but that's not enough...).

    I like the graphics (even though bridges and buildings appear in a weird way sometimes), I like the gameplay, I WANT to like the game, but the way freemium is implemented doesn't allow me to do it. I'm thinking about deleting this one and reinstalling Redline Rush...

    The screen shots remind me on an 80's arcade racer that was pretty famous..... can't recall the name....

    Did you take note of the timer advice I gave you? Maybe an IAP to remove it would fit okay...

    LOL... so there's an unavoidable timer. Reason enough for me to avoid the game.

    Yeap, you're allowed to race 5 times before having to wait. Every time you level up, the timer resets, but obviously every level up takes longer. To fill the timer, it's 1 hour per 1 recharge, so you have to wait 5 full hours for it to recharge fully. A real pity, because I think the game has potential...

    Could be a fun game, but really grindy as hell, and hours over hours on wait time! At this current state, no thanks.

    I pray for the day that a semi-benevolent extraterrestrial species takes control of this planet and calmly vapourizes all gaming studios that employ timers within their product from giant orbital platforms.

    When are Devs going to get the message?

    I know you were being facetious but it's impossible for alien species to get here! Gameplay not bad a little slow and a little simplistic , may get better as you get better cars

    Agreed! I've deleted all games with timers because I never get to play them. They lock you out and by the time you can get back in you've long forgotten about the game. I had this happen so often with a couple of King games I found I no longer played them anymore so deleted them.

    When are the dev's going to get the message that we want to play as long as we want?

    Nice production values but the worst type of free 2 play, the one that hates that you play and grindy as hell. Deleted.
