* Review edited, update to touch screen options now work wonderfully. Give this game a try!Only issue that still remains with touch controls is there is a delay, despite messing with the sensitivity. I assume this is to assist with smooth steering, but it just feels like the car won’t move until you hold turn for about half a second. Makes tap controls too difficult to use because when you press the button you have no idea when it’s going to actually turn. I hope they fixThe game itself is a fantastic arcade racer, with a bit of F1 simulation tied in. It works phenomenally and looks great. Only critique, is without leaderboards, this game is as good as dead before it even launched. I know it costs money to keep leaderboards running, But its a racing game. Career mode runs out very quickly, and championship is just a quick way to race the same tracks over again but in a cup style format with no progression or change to what you just did in career. We need leaderboards!

The game is very fun and you can tell new star is advancing and learning from their past endeavors. The 2.5d styling of racing is honestly so fun to play with and the physics are very easy to understand and get used to. The game also deals with realism very well, every era has matching speeds and competition, as well as the other simulation elements like the tires and suspension/engines that can go out during the race. They also took the time to go out and name each city and circuit with its matching real life counterparts, with the animations to go along with it. Not only that but they give all of the AI racers names similiar to legends of the era they played in real life. Although I wish championship mode would be opened after completing the game, or achievement based instead of being hidden behind a paywall, the career mode does the job for me and it has PLENTY of content. Not to mention many side events like rivals with other racers and keeping your management and crew happy, and that affecting your races as well. Overall, I can confidently say that this game deserves 5 stars. Theres just not many like this in the retro genre and new star did it first, and executed it perfectly I’d say.

This is one of the best racing games I’ve ever played not just F1 games it’s not to easy but not too difficult and there’s plenty of different kind of races and I like how the tracks get more and more difficult, there’s nothing bad I would say besides I hope they keep adding stuff like maybe more racers like in F1 if maybe like 15 racers and also if you could race for pole would be so nice rather then starting in 10th always ( I know there is a perk that can have you start 9th but still) and also the AI in this game need some kind of penalty because they just slam into you and there car is fine while mine is flipped over and in the wall but besides those things this game is really good. Good job whoever made this.
