#REVIEWS OF ICIRCUIT WINDOWS#
On top of that, the learning curve is so satisfying when you reach that sweet spot of mastering the range of cars and tracks on offer.ICircuit is the premier Windows Phone 7 app for designing and experimenting with circuits. The variety in cars give players a chance to try rally driving, muscle cars, and formula one.
There’s tons to do, and whether you’re alone or with friends, the options to jump in and burn rubber are plentiful. That’s why being penalised for cutting corners etc feels a little out of place. Whilst there is realism in terms of handling and car performance, having a great time is the focus. It would be better if the penalty system didn’t exist. Becoming a star in a reasonably priced car is cool, but that track is pretty damn tricky to master.Ĭircuit Superstars is a fun racer. You can edit cars and the drivers, giving you a bit more freedom to look the way you want to look. Along with the ability to play with others, there’s also some customisation options. You can switch up settings and courses for a great time. This is a big deal, especially as it’s such a fun game to play. Outside of the Grand Prix, there’re Weekly Time Trials to take part in, and an online multiplayer that will see players race players from all across the globe.ĬHECK THIS OUT: Back 4 Blood is a great co-op multiplayer with plenty to love | Our review Circuit Superstars: Play with friendsĪlong with playing online, Circuit Superstars offers local co-op specifically four-player split-screen. There’s not a ton of variety in how the courses look, but its enough to appreciate. Still, in its own way, the simplicity has a certain charm to it. Circuit Superstars may not offer the stunning visuals of games like F1 2021. With so many classes and difficulty settings, replayability is there in spades. Eventually, you’ll be paying attention to tyre degradation and damage to your car’s body.įor a game so simple in its presentation and gameplay, players will enjoy the deep learning curve. The earlier ones are a way of easing you in. There are 12 in total, each with a different class of car. The Grand Prix mode is where solo players will spend most of their time. Whatever the course, there’s plenty of variety. Some tracks contain tight corners and long straights, and others offer smooth and longer corners. Breaking and taking your foot off the pedal at the right time means you’ll get a better grasp of the handling. Going into corners too fast and you’ll crash into the barricades. Obviously, the highest difficulty is the toughest, but even Amateur provides a fair amount of challenges. There are five difficulties for you to choose from: Amateur, Pro-am, Pro, Master, and Superstar. The isometric view took a fair amount of muscle memory to get used to, but after a while I fell in love with it. If you want to go for speed, jump in a 60s or Formula GP car to really test your skills. The Euro Trucks are large behemoths that are slow and powerful. The standard Piccino cars are the evergreen choice for those wanting a balance in handling and speed. Gliding into a corner feels different with each car. Across a range of different courses and classes, each vehicle requires a different approach to controlling. What makes it so fun to play is the strategy it manages to pack in. If you stray off course, the option to reposition yourself back onto the track is only a button away.
It also has some steep learning curves despite there only being a limited control system. Circuit Superstars offers plenty of cars, tracks, and challenges. However, we’re not here to wish for a great Micro Machines game. From the moment I started my first race, it gave me serious Micro Machines vibes.ĬHECK THIS OUT: The 10 best Dreamcast games of all time Circuit Superstars: Variety is the spice of life That’s not to say Original Fire Games has abandoned the need for skill or realism, but there’s plenty of fun in its simple approach to racing. Milestone’s slew of titles stick closely to real life counterparts, but not everyone wants to play that type of driving game. Circuit Superstars is a nice reminder that not all racers have to be full-on simulations.
