Retro-style arcade racing with the strategic depth of a real world tour. 24 WORLD TOUR CIRCUITS Tracks recreated from real GPS data of the world's great circuits: from the Temple of Speed to the Principality, with its tunnel, its hairpins and even its overpass. Four settings: classic, desert, coast and city. 4 GAME MODES • TIME TRIAL: one global Game Center leaderboard per circuit. • CHALLENGES: 20 levels per difficulty to master every skill. • SINGLE RACE: build your own race — up to 20 rivals, laps, weather and grid. • CHAMPIONSHIP: your own world tour with qualifying, time-based standings and named rivals. REAL STRATEGY Pit stops with a full crew and stop clock, soft/medium/hard/wet compounds, tire wear you can feel and fuel that runs out. Rivals manage their own stops too — and get them wrong sometimes. LIVING SKIES In-race weather forecast: "RAIN IN 2 MIN". Do you box for wets or gamble on slicks? Puddles, aquaplaning, storms and night races lit by headlights. AND MORE • Play portrait or landscape: your call. • Full game controller support. • Touch control editor: position, size and opacity. • Haptics and 100% original sound. • Four difficulty levels, with driving assists on the lower ones.
