Tide Runner
Read full descriptionHide full description
The current runs with you. Keep the reds to port, stay off the sand, and don't lift too early into the bend. Tide Runner is a racing game about carrying speed. Your hull holds its momentum through a turn, so the fast way round is never the tight way round — ease off before the mark, let the stern come round, and get back on the throttle before the boat behind does. ONE HUNDRED COURSES, FOUR WORLDS Twenty-five winding rivers. Twenty-five channels cut through lava. Twenty-five frozen leads across the ice. Twenty-five runs through open space. Every one has its own width, character and racing line — from Fjord Run, four long sweeps you can hold the throttle through, to Corryvreckan, twenty-six corners of almost continuous helm. RIVALS THAT ACTUALLY RACE Two, three or five laps against up to eleven others, at four skill tiers. Up to Hard the tiers are driving skill rather than horsepower: how much of the corner a rival dares use, how steadily it holds its line, how quickly it moves the helm. From Normal upward they race each other too — tucking into the wake ahead for the tow, then pulling out to pass once there's clear water. Insane sits just above what a drafting boat can hold. Quick enough to chase. Slow enough to catch in the corners. THE WATER FIGHTS BACK Fifty-nine courses have something in them. Whirlpools that turn the helm and put you somewhere you never pointed. Logs that drift with the current, so last lap's line isn't this lap's. Rockfalls with a second and a half of shadow for warning. Orcas breaching along the channel. Pressure cracks that open right across the ice and leave one gap to thread. Run aground and sit there too long and something takes an interest. What comes for you depends on where you are. GEAR WORTH SPENDING ON Lay a net across the channel behind you. Put a torpedo straight down your own wake. Hold a nitro charge for the straight where it counts. All of it bought with coins you earned racing, which makes every purchase a decision. 119 BOATS TO EARN Eighteen colours. Fifty-five national flags. Twenty animated camos that move while you race. Twenty-five challenge skins, each locked behind a time target on its own course — beat all twenty-five and Diamond Camo is yours. CHASE YOURSELF Time trial runs you solo against your own ghost, re-recorded every time you beat it. Course records save per course and follow you into the HUD. Gold, silver and bronze targets are computed from the shape of the course itself, not picked out of the air. BUILT FOR A PHONE Thumb stick and throttle, two fingers at once, so you can fire gear without letting go of the helm. Keyboard and arrows on desktop. A short tutorial lap that shows you the controls and then gets out of the way. PLAYS ANYWHERE No account. No sign-in. No connection needed. Your progress lives on your device, and a transfer code moves it to another one whenever you want. Free to play, supported by ads. Optional rewarded videos double your winnings from a race or add a bonus spin — there is nothing in the game that can only be bought, and no purchases at all. Every boat is earned on the water.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Tide Runner at none against Soccer Superstar's 7. Soccer Superstar's advantage is chart position (#15 vs unranked). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
