Neon Drift Circuit

Neon Drift Circuit is pure arcade racing — no simulation nonsense, just glowing tracks and satisfying drifts. You can steer with tilt or on-screen buttons, and unusually both feel good. I preferred tilt for handling and touch for tighter city tracks.

The sense of speed is great, and the boost mechanic tied to your drift chain gives races a nice rhythm. Tracks recycle a bit toward the end, but there are enough of them to stay fresh for a while.

Fair warning: this is the most demanding game in this batch on battery, dropping about 15% in twenty minutes with everything maxed. There's a battery-saver mode that helps a lot and barely hurts the look.

What we liked

• Both tilt and touch feel great
• Satisfying drift-and-boost loop
• Battery-saver mode actually works
