Drive.RS : Open World Racing 4+

The concept of the game being an open world racing game is pretty decent, but grinding races for an abysmal amount of credits for every win is extremely boring and long, especially since unlocking new cars and upgrading is quite costly, other than the economy system the graphics are highly customisable and look pretty good, but the frame rate is capped to 30 when making the resolution the highest setting which is annoying for people who have higher end phones that can run the game on the highest resolution and get 60 frames. Physics are also customisable as you can turn assists on and off, and also affect the reward amount you receive upon completing a race. Solid concept for an indie mobile racing game

Hello, thanks for the review. It is disappointing to hear that you found the game overly grindy, as though of course there is some grind like most freemium games, we did set out to make the game less grindy, and less pay to win than many notable big mobile games. Of course, it's not as generous as something like Forza, but logistically it's not really possible to be that generous with a free game that relies on purchases or rewarded ads for revenue.

Regarding the 30 cap at extreme resolution, believe me I love 60fps so it would be great if all phones could run the game at 60 at the highest resolution. But the reality is we're pushing things pretty far for a mobile game, with a huge world, PBR materials and a lot of post processing, so the only devices that would be able to run max settings at 60 would be an iPad pro and maybe an iPhone 14. Therefore it seemed like the safest bet to cap a 60, especially when you have to factor in battery life, thermal throttling etc.

Cheers.

I like the game as it’s quite fun but I feel like not could use some small changes to when you crash into something as you kinda just bounce off it other than that I love the game

Thanks for the review, I'll look into the collision response, and ideally I would like to have more things destructable too. After the next two major updates, I'll see if I can improve the collision physics etc.

I was recommended this game by a friend. It’s a big map for mobile, and it gets more fun with faster cars. The races are good, challenging. Graphics are very realistic for mobile. Traffic is fun. You could add lorries to the traffic cars for more variety and realism, especially on motorways. Overall really good job, the main thing I’d like to see added is multiplayer, but still 5 stars.

Thanks for the good review, I'm glad you like the game. We do plan on adding multiplayer in the near future, as well as more maps etc :)
