Asphalt 6: Adrenaline
Is It Any Good?
There are plenty of racing games in the app stores, but the Asphalt series has always been near the top. ASPHALT 6: ADRENALINE is another winning installment, offering a fun, fast-paced experience with plenty of tracks, cars, and detailing options. It's also a long game that lets users feel they really got their money's worth from the app's reasonably high cost at the time of this review. The problem is, this sixth version of the series is pretty close to the fifth. Aside from the ability to get an acceleration boost by collecting nitro symbols on the track and the elimination of unlocking "girls," it's a virtual clone, in fact. And the multiplayer is so-so at best. That puts the series at risk -- and developer Gameloft will need to shake things up if it wants the inevitable Asphalt 7 to stand out from the crowd.
