Steep learning curves aside, the payoff is totally worth it, in a rewarding game that really gets its hooks in.

The concept is as cool as the minimalistic art design that gives you the chance to be a four-wheeled magic marker. And while it might take a while to get used to the art of drifting, you get bored quickly by the redundant mission design.

A fun game, regardless of some of its physics issues and repetitive challenges.
