Yo, ho, ho, and a bottle of rum! Ahoy there me hearties! Me and the crew has some down time as it’s approximately a couple more days before we arrive on the island that is our next stop for our booty hunting. We are playing all sorts of games to keep us entertained. We had a race, running from the deck of the good old Jolly Roger to the bottom most part. Guess who won. Aye, ye are correct me lads and lasses, it’s yer favorite app pirate of course! Har, har, har! That reminds me of the racing game that me just played on me phone. Let me tell ye more about it in this review. It’s called Battle Racing Stars from Halfbrick Studios.
It has familiar characters and different backgrounds
If you have played other Halfbrick Studios games before, you will find this app interesting since you will find the different characters from those games, including the characters from Magic Brick Wars and Dan the Man. It also has different backgrounds, so you will not be seeing the same background over and over as you play. It’s an added point for the changing scenery and terrain.
It’s free and fast paced
You can download the game for free, and you can also continue playing without spending anything, although in-app purchases are available. You will be in your toes because each race is fast paced. You will not feel bored playing and waiting because you will get to the finish line in no time. It’s still enough though to enjoy a gameplay. Plus, you move to the next race after that.
There are several features to unlock
You win something when you win a race. There are several items and characters to unlock as you progress in the game. You can also upgrade each character to make them more powerful, improve their defense, and make them faster. The characters are also adorable, and you can choose which one to use at the start of every race. They have their own skills, so you can have different experience playing each of them.
It’s multiplayer but requires internet connection
You will not be playing with bots, but with real people, which is fun. You will be matched with random players though, so you cannot really choose the other players, like for instance if you want to play with friends. You also need internet connection to play as it is unavailable offline.
The good
The app is free, it’s familiar, and there are several features and characters to unlock. It’s also fast-paced and you can play with real player instead of just bots.
The bad
You cannot play offline. You need internet connection to play the game. You also cannot choose the other players that you will play with because you will be given random opponents.
The verdict
Battle Racing Stars is highly recommended if you are into racing games and you want to play with real people. It’s free, and fast-paced with several characters, and features to unlock. It’s fun, so you will not get bored with it.
