Very fun but some things can be fixed

I’ve been playing for some hours now, and it is very addicting, I just love dodging police cars and slowing down when they get in front of me so they can just collide together. I really like this game but some things need to be fixed. For example, the ads. There aren’t too much, but having an ad at almost every game over gets annoying. Also, my device does not run games very well and was lagging, but when I turned the ads off, it ran almost with no lag even on ultra graphics. All the ads are doing is slowing down the game. Another thing, the police cars that ram into you from in front, not behind but above, please make them less op. It is very hard to dodge them even if you use your nitro and if you just got hit by something and slowed down, then you have no choice but to let the cop car take 20 percent of your health in 1 hit. 3rd thing, it’s really hard to see the police cars form behind, but that’s not really that important to me. This game’s graphics are beautiful and this game alone has a lot of potential but I think that somethings in this game could be optimized and fixed.

Fun game, not optimized

When I downloaded this game, I was pleasantly surprised when it actually played just like the video shows, pretty impressed for a mobile game. Also, there aren’t an excessive amount of ads (unless you want to unlock the cars for free lol) However, there are some changes I wish were made. 1: I wish the obstacles were more frequent and would spawn farther away from the player, sometimes I’m moving fast enough that I don’t have time to move out of the way and I lose my whole score combo. 2: I wish the highway would curve in both directions. Right now, it’s just a giant oval so it only curves to the left and it’s kinda boring only making left turns. It should be an infinite winding or even straight highway. 3: There should be a replay button after you lose. I hate that I have to navigate through the menu every time I restart my game. I hope the developers at Mad Hook see this, please consider adding these changes! :)

Fun and simple!

I really like this game because it's fun, high score, arcade action. The graphics are decent, the vehicles are diverse, easy to customize, and somewhat easy to unlock, the gameplay is basic but exciting, and the multiplayer adds a whole new area of gameplay. I just wish there was a little more. More maps (personally, I like the highways), options to increase the number of cars in single-player levels, more camera views (first-person view could be interesting), or more customization options (spoilers, lights, decals, changing the color of stripes, etc.). You don't need to do all of those, obviously, those are just some ideas.

Good game but…

Crazy how a singular mistake can make a game with amazing potential into a complete crappy and awful game. I was playing this game and trust me I love playing highway drifter but what I don’t like is that you have no choice but to take damage when a police hits you. I just feel like this should be fixed because many time I’ve been unfairly beaten by the police cars. Another problem is the fact that sometimes I DIE BEFORE I SPAWN. I absolutely despise this glitch. And probably the last glitch is that… well, I bought the mustang,challenger,the white truck,the low rider and the Dodge Charger. But ONE DAY I got on just to find that, ALL OF THOSE CARS ARE GONE I no longe own the vehicles when I tried so hard to get those vehicles just for them to be TAKEN AWAY. I understand that this game has potential and was probably recently created but please if you are reading this, please just listen to these glitches and this game would be so much better and enjoyable. Sincerely -me

Too many problems

The game lags so much for me when I’m playing and I don’t even have the graphics turned up. Although the freezes put me back to where it froze instead of teleporting me forward, it’s still annoying and impossible to get used to since it’s random. There are also WAY too many ads. An ad when I start the game. An ad when I select ready. An ad when I select single player. An ad when I select a map. And ad when I join. It’s TOO MUCH. Enough with the focus on penny pinching and start focusing on your game or I guarantee you that you won’t be making any money when everyone leaves this game. Another thing is the horrible customization. We can’t even move the camera to see what wheels we put on, the camber has no visual or performance effect whatsoever, and there are so few options. I used to love this game but when I came back it’s been nothing but disappointing.

Very addictive game! Highly recommend.

The type of game that i really wanted for a long time! I just got this game an hour ago and i just can stop playing it! It way different like any other drifting games. The graphics is really great! So far i have no any complaints about this game. I just wanted to ask a favor if you guys can add up some new maps and challenges or obstacles to make it more even challenging. I also want to improve the sound of the car engines and add up some smoke when it drifts and lastly, i highly recommend traffic options. So far so good, great game!

Nice try, get some better devs

This game has some nice underlying elements and overall it’s ok but there are some major issues: the amount of ads is atrocious an ad to take a reward, an ad to start a game, an ad to end a game, and basically an ad whenever you want to do anything especially when your playing the police escape mode and an ad covers up your health bar which brings me to the next issue: the cop cars do wwwaaayyy to much damage one bump from a cop car should not destroy one fifth of your car especially if that is the most expensive car that you can buy without spending actual money. Now also you shouldn’t have more cars you can buy with money than with in game currency. Also don’t just respond by telling me that you need the ads because your cars cost 50$ each which is way to much

Impressive game but there’s just one thing

I love this game and it looks like the ad and I’m surprised because it looks like the ad so when I try to play a ad called whiteout survival it comes on and then when I finish the ads it’s like my screen stretches and it looks weird and I don’t know how to got rid of the stretched screen but the game is good I love it and u get just the right amount of money when u loose because it’s easy money and that’s a reason why I love the game and since it’s close to Christmas u should do a car giveaway
