FPR Superbikes

As if racing on four wheels wasn't dangerous enough, some bright spark figured it'd be even more entertaining on two. And he was right – the MotoGP series is one of the world's most exciting motorsport series on any number of wheels.
Transferring the massive power of a race-tuned 990cc engine – which will output around 240 brake horsepower – to the track via a single wheel is the main reason why. These bikes can go from 0 to 60 miles an hour in less time than it takes to say it.
Capturing this knife-edge racing on mobile phone would seem to be quite achallenge, then, but if anyone's going to master it it'll be Carl 'Foggy' Fogerty, right? The most successful superbike rider of all time when it comes to race wins, he's attached his name via the team he owns – Foggy Petronas Racing – to Infospace's motorcycle racer.
Foggy'd certainly be proud of the polish that FPR Superbikes boasts, almost rivalling that of the bigger home consoles. In some respects this is welcome (there's nothing wrong with lofty aspirations) but it does serve to get in the way a little, complicating access to the most important part, the racing.
Taking to the track across a globe-spanning championship, time trial or one-off quick race, you'll be going wheel to wheel against five other riders. Even though your average superbike isn't terribly wide, it all gets quite crowded at times, and the racing is close enough to provide a reasonably satisfying challenge.
It's nothing, however, compared to the challenge of keeping both wheels on the black stuff. FPR Superbikes manages to convey very well what it's like to lean into a corner at an insanely high speed, and it's quite unlike any of its four-wheeled peers. It can take the first few races to get the hang of getting the timing of your turns, but once you do it's incredibly rewarding.
Even though the visuals are steadfastly 2D, they make you feel as though you're going a good lick, and the various tracks, whilst not based on real-world circuits, are a good mix of high-speed blasters and difficult, technical tracks with lots of curves.
All of which makes FPR Superbikes a racing game that stands out from the pack. Even if you aren't into superbikes and prefer Formula 1, for instance, the racing is intense enough to make it a worthwhile title.
You will have to work at it though, and the game suffers from the epidemic sweeping mobile developers everywhere of locking the majority of the tracks until you get good enough to win them. This is more than a little annoying – it means the game becomes a test of your patience as you end up racing the same circuit again and again until you're good enough to come first.
Stick with it and you'll discover a mobile racing game with surprising depth and longevity, something that's enough to push it into first place.
