Race Your Way Through The Sky

Asphalt 8: Airborne is a racing game with several game modes where the only aim in the game is to win each race and score points; races are filled with specific objectives such as stunts which provide the player with more points and currency which can be spent on car upgrades. Alongside the main campaign mode, there is multiplayer available for online and local play.

The game includes a basic tutorial to teach players the elementary mechanics of the game. While the said tutorial is nice, it does include text screens that overlay the gameplay which stops the player from being able to play for several seconds while they wait for the text screen to go. The text screens are annoying but they contain the needed information to learn the basics of the game, the placement of them could have been better, however.

Graphics 5/5
Graphically, the game is amazing; the stunning 3D graphics and lighting make it look quite realistic and it can be easy to forget that this is a mobile game at times. The audio is also quite nice and the player has the option to select which type of music they'd like to listen to while they race; while there are only three music genres to select from, it does offer much more choice than most other games in this genre. The only major downside is that the game can lag occasionally mid-game; this can be quite annoying and potentially cause players to lose the match. Advertisements do appear sometimes but they are not very intrusive and appear before a race begins.
