I’m just in the beginning stage of tutorials and have not played an online match yet but so far it’s super easy and you don’t actually really have to steer . something that could make it fun though is that you can use a wireless controller and that it will adapt to that and it’s great as a mobile game.

  9. [R12] Asphalt Legends 3/5 · US One problem…: This game ai have been enjoying with my friends for good amount of time! Graphics are good, cars looks amazing, and systems looks flawless. Though there’s one problem, which is making refill of the car or anything system that were free from computer to be an ad-based after you download into same account in the phone.

  11. [R15] Asphalt Legends 3/5 · US It’s pretty good: I like this game, but it has two problems. There are too many adds for my liking. And you have to unlock all the cars with blueprints. but now for the positive parts of the game. there are different cars from Asphalt 8 airborne +, and sometimes cars that you haven’t unlocked yet Will let you try them out, this is called a free trial.

  17. [R27] Asphalt Legends 3/5 · GB Disappointing: Asphalt Legends for mobile has significantly changed from the start of my gaming experience to July 2025. I’ve only been playing a few months and the game has gone downhill for me, what looked like a graphically amazing and engaging realistic racing game, needs to be played for the dark side to be discovered. A.) There has been a number of updates to excite one of the only good th
  18. [R43] Asphalt Legends 1/5 · US Gameplay: You never truly get ahead after spending real money to advance my cars to peak performance l, highly underranked cars still passed me with ease. I'm not talking about a couple points difference I'm talking im running 4000+ ranked cars against 3000's and still being out ran. Don't download I grinder months to get to nowhere. The campaign is ok but you have to unlock cars or pay for them

You also hit a paywall pretty quick, with some races only passable with cars you must buy or somehow luck into getting enough cards from a random pack. It’s clear that the game is just meant to show you ads and take your money, not for you to enjoy playing it. Two stars be
  20. [R64] Need for Speed No Limits Game 1/5 · US One Update Lost Everything: I was really into this game and then they had an update and I lost everything. Sucked. Can’t get it back. Pay to play type of game. Disappointed in devs.
  21. [R72] Need for Speed No Limits Game 3/5 · US Good… But pay to win: The game is fun and has a wide selection of cars to choose from. It’s easy to learn, easy to pick up, and great if you just want to relax and enjoy a racing game. The problem is the insane number of paywalls they throw at you. The ticket and fuel system (basically the game’s energy system) is extremely limited. You’d think leveling up would increase your fuel capacity or gi
