Track and field is my favorite sport, so I was surprised when I saw an ad for a track and field game. I downloaded it because I figured it would be garbage (besides, it’s just running, right?), but it’s surprisingly fun. You need to keep a good tempo (can’t just spam the run button because then you can lose balance and kind of stumble forward, just like real life) and work through a drive phase, and also time your starts and lunges just right to clinch out wins. I’ve not unlocked any jumps, hurdles, or throws yet, but I’m sure they’ll have the same sophistication. It appears they’re working on a 1500 mode, but I’m a bit uneasy about the idea about it, since just tapping a screen consistently for 5 minutes sounds deathly boring to me, but if they get the concept down right I’ll be all for it.There are some big bugs though. The main one I have to deal with is that it seems like I get kicked out every 5 minutes and have to click on my player again to sign back in. This can be especially frustrating during races. Some minor bugs are that in the shop, when buying or upgrading items like shoes, the timer will incorrectly say 6 hours every time. Everything still comes in on time (for example, one of my upgrades was supposed to be 2 minutes long, but after buying it I was told it would be ready in 6 hours, but 2 minutes later I had it). And finally, not a bug, but the back arrow button just functions really weird in my opinion. Rather than like regular mobile games where it just takes them to the last major area in the UI they were at, it functions more like a back-page button on a web browser, which I feel like is too precise, so I end up using the home button instead.Overall, and awesome game that’s executed incredibly well.
