beautiful graphics but flawed gameplay

The Bottom Line:
"Mixed reactions"
THE GOOD
stunning graphics
steady frame rate
hard to master

THE BAD
repetitious tracks
load times
the lack of control

Low grav racer is a wipe out look-a-like arcade style racing game. The graphics are quite stunning for the iphone. Steering uses the accelerometer, acceleration happens automatically. To control the ship more precisely, controlling the acceleration and braking yourself would be a better option. Now I feel that I don't have full control of the ship.

The learning curve is quite steep, in the beginning you'll grind the boarding quite often, but after some adjustments to the sensitivity and learning the tracks, it's an enjoying game.

The game runs at a steady frame rate, but the sense of speed isn't really there. The tracks look very nice, with quite different themes, but are still too repetitious. The load times can be quite annoying, 5 seconds to get back to the menu takes too long for me.

All in all, this game is enjoyable, but I'm still waiting for that killer sci-fi racer on the iphone.
