This is a great game and is very addicting I would like to say that I was playing and was able to cover 22 percent land but then another player went after me I tried to quickly circle back to my land and it almost worked I had just gotten back to my land when all of it went white just like it was empty land then after that an ad popped up I went to check my high score and it was what it was before and the game had not kept my most recent high score even watching the whole ad so just for fair warning this game seems to have a lot of problems with glitching but overall this game is pretty fun.

I was excited to see upgrades. And a seemingly huge map. But I’ve learned the upgrades you buy for each skin don’t matter. And the map isn’t that big. 100% of the other “players” (bots) are maxed out on speed. And even though I have maxed my speed out I’m still slower then them. So they always stay just a bit faster it seems. Making the fun upgrade dynamic a bit useless. They also made the bots a lot harder to outsmart. Which means they never leave their home until you do. Then they make a b line right for you 100% of the time. Highest I’ve got is 77%. But the higher you get the more bots you have making a direct sprint for your trail. Making it much harder to complete. But that’s okay. Prolongs the game because as far as I can tell the first time I make 100% that’s going to be it for me. No need to upgrade all the skins when it doesn’t actually do anything. So completionist drive for this one for me. And I have no Interest in watching a bunch of adds just to unlock a skin either.

So overall I’d say this one is a 3 star release. Maybe IO 5 will be better.

The overall game can be fun if you learn how to properly play. That being said, the lines are often glitched and inaccurate during gameplay which can be the difference between surviving or restarting. I can spend 30+ minutes building up a large section only for the game to crash every time making it a giant waste of time. Zero progress save, zero satisfaction, nothing…… to make things worse, it drains your phone battery so quickly that I had my phone charging with 73% battery and after 25 minutes my phone was down to 20%! That’s ridiculous! Especially since I had it hooked up to a rapid charger!

Overall, it’s not worth the time or download. There’s not really any progression and no point to playing. It may be a decent game to pass time but it will cost you your phones battery. Until they fix their game, I suggest looking elsewhere for entertainment. Or try the game out. I can’t stop you but if you do try it then let me get this out now, “I told you so”.
