ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

HILL RACER 1 holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: HILL RACER 1 has 34 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 87% of HILL RACER 1's written reviews are positive against 100% of Drifting parallel parking's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

HILL RACER 1 ships an update every 45 months, Drifting parallel parking every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
