Is it still worth playing?
Released in August 2013 for iOS and Android and later for Windows 8 and other platforms, this racing game gives you four control options. You can tilt to steer with automatic acceleration, tilt with manual acceleration by an on screen icon, use an on screen virtual steering wheel, or tap the side of the screen to steer. The Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 versions have different control schemes, including the WASD and arrow keys. A five-star rating system gives primary and secondary objectives, with three stars for finishing in a certain position. A premium version, Asphalt 8: Airborne+, came to Apple Arcade in August 2021. A racer with four ways to steer is easy to pick up, as it still is.
