### 4/5 — Ghost of Outrun

*2023-08-08*

I’ll settle for this as a great substitute for the classic arcade game. Nostalgic and has many of the qualities of its Daddy.

### 3/5 — IOS 15

*2022-01-13*

a quand une compatibilité ios 15 ?

### 3/5 — サウンドセレクトを直して下さい！

*2020-08-12*

ゲームはとても良いのですが、自分の保存曲を選ぼうとするとリセットが掛かってしまい選択出来ません。修正をよろしくお願いします。

### 5/5 — レースモノでは最高のゲーム

*2017-08-14*

アウ○ランの曲をBGMにプレイしてます。
スピード感もありとても楽しいですよ。

### 5/5 — FANTASTIC OutRun-alike!

*2016-09-19*

The first Final Freeway was an okay OutRun alternative for mobile, this sequel absolutely nails it, though! It plays great, looks great and sounds great! I bet SEGA would let these guys reboot OutRun for mobile if they asked!

The only complaint I have is that whilst this game has some really nice pixel art, the whole thing uses bilinear filtering so the pixels are blurred and we can't enjoy the sprites in all their glory.

### 5/5 — Best game E-V-E-R!!!!

*2015-10-20, version 1.0.10*

Update: After all these years, I'm still playing this game. What are you still reading? Buy this game......like right now!!!

They listen to their customers and really delivered with this second installment. I rarely buy apps but dropped a cool .99 on this game and it has far exceeded my expectations.

### 5/5 — Still one of the best!

*2015-09-20, version 1.0.10*

I still love to pic this game up for a nostalgia fix. The gameplay is excellent and the graphics are exactly what I was looking for in this game. Waiting for number 3!!

### 5/5 — Outruns "Out Run"

*2015-09-19, version 1.0.10*

Yu Suzuki said he was making a "driving" game, not a "racing" game. This labor of love brings that vision to life. A work of art.

### 5/5 — WOW

*2015-03-07, version 1.0.10*

I love it great arcade racer or ya but soo fun

### 5/5 — Outrun

*2015-01-10, version 1.0.10*

Class

### 5/5 — Best homage to outrun on ios.

*2015-01-03, version 1.0.10*

Excellent Outrun style game. I still come back to it, and will always keep it on my ipad (it only takes about 11mb installed). If you like this style of arcade racer, check this one out for sure.

### 5/5 — Excellent ! Out Run de 1986 amélioré et en HD !

*2014-10-11*

C'est pas compliqué, ce remake est mieux que l'original.

Il vous suffit de vous procurer les musiques d'Out Run, et vous pouvez les passées en fond sonore pour accéder à l'ambiance ultime.

Puisque Sega nous a abandonnés, je conseille vivement ce jeu, qui n'a pas rougir de son aîné…

La maniabilité, et la fluidité sont exemplaires !
 À essayer d'urgence (il existe une version gratuite) mais pour 0,79 €, ce jeu vaut vraiment le coup… (avis aux nostalgiques)

### 5/5 — Perfect gameplay, perfect controls

*2014-08-17*

I haven't enjoyed a race game so much for years, the mini steering wheel on screen allows perfect control. If I could buy this game twice I would do!!!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Game don’t work!

*2022-05-16, version 1.0.10*

Ipad ios15

### 1/5 — Shame

*2022-04-24*

Used to be brilliant.  But can no longer be played as the developer needs to update it to the latest operating system.  Which begs the question of why is it still being sold?
Weirdly,  Final Freeway 1 works fine still.   Go figure.

**Developer response:** We're a small studio and it's hard to keep track of what happens with the OS changes and new compatibility issues. In an ideal world, a game would continue to work like it always did. In any case, we finally noticed this and got the time to release new updates. Please, consider updating your review if the game works for you again. Thanks !

### 1/5 — update for xs

*2022-04-24*

please update this game for the iphone xs.
the game is not compatible with my phone (cant play this game)

### 1/5 — No longer supported on new operating systems

*2022-02-07*

Used to be great - now can’t be played

### 1/5 — Dead game

*2021-07-14*

Used to love this game, shame it no longer works

### 1/5 — Not getting downloaded

*2021-06-05*

This game is not getting downloaded on to my phone after purchasing it kindly resolve this issue

### 1/5 — Worst Game Ever Made

*2012-04-02, version 1.0*

This game had terrible graphs to start off with. Most of the time you could only drive and stop. It was hard to steer with the car. I would totally not recommend this game to people.

### 2/5 — 地味

*2019-01-17*

アザーカーの配置は超適当で、基本的に密集していて避ける楽しさも薄いし、ライバルカーの存在も煽り運転をしてくるだけなのでプレイに華を添える訳ではない。

ステアリングが異常に浅くて挙動も地味なので、何となく走ってる感じしかしないのも致命的。コーナリング際のスキール音や、追い抜いた際の環境音も仕込んでないので尚更無機質に感じる。

それと、僅かなコースアウトで極端な減速になるのも違和感がある。ビギナー設定でも1ミスでクリア出来なくなるゲームバランスも難あり。

### 2/5 — No sound

*2014-02-09, version 1.0.6*

Have the ipad5 and there's no sound for this game

### 2/5 — Not the greatest game.

*2013-11-17, version 1.0.6*

It's a little cool with the arcade style UI and graphics but when you get to core gameplay there really is no fun with no actual challenge expect with the turning. This game makes me want to throw up sometimes due to the terrible motion sickness perspective and the car is going to fast. This game is not worth your money.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2026-04-28*

This game will never get old. I'm curious to see how it looks with the CRT mode from the original Final Freeway. I’d also love to see two new convertible cars, the F40 and F50...

### 5/5 — Fun game

*2026-04-19*

Very fun game

### 5/5 — Works again!

*2025-11-23, version 1.9.9*

I am glad they updated it to play on newer iOS devices. I pretty much wrote this game off when it couldn’t be played on my 13 Mini and iPad Pro M1. Now on a 17 Pro it’s great to play it again!

### 5/5 — 80’s brought to life

*2024-09-16, version 1.9.9*

This game is the visual example of how we can restore the past and enjoy it in the present

### 5/5 — Best game of my life

*2023-10-25*

Please never abandon it I wanna play it forever lol a little update would be nice also

### 5/5 — Wow an update.  YES

*2022-08-31, version 1.9.9*

Can’t believe they updated it.  This is awesome. Best retro racer on IOS by far.  Download this game. You won’t be disappointed

### 5/5 — Deixou de funcionar

*2022-01-02*

Depois da atualização IOS15 parou de funcionar. Atualizem ele é top

### 5/5 — Отлично!👍

*2020-07-04*

ЭТА ИГРА ВРОДЕ КАК ЛУЧШЕ ЧЕМ ПРЕДЫДУЩАЯ ВЕРСИЯ! ИМХО.🤔

### 5/5 — Please update for xs max display

*2019-05-18*

Thx

### 5/5 — Amazing! Classic arcade driving action!

*2018-01-30, version 1.0.10*

This game does note disappoint! It feels like a mix of Outrun and Tokyo Extreme Racer. Not enough D for any Initial D fans. But if you throw on a soundtrack it’s almost the same.
