Wreckfest for iPhone

Speed past opponents in this demolition derby game

Wreckfest is a racing game from HandyGames that allows you to take part in a massive demolition derby with a variety of unique car models and exhilarating tracks. You can enjoy playing through a number of different modes, including career, tournament, or even your own customized event. 

Similar to games like Steampunk Racing 3D, Wreckfest enables you to customize your vehicles from top to bottom with decals, paint, and additional parts. Keep in mind that certain add-ons can improve the car’s acceleration, strength, cornering, and top speed, whereas some will have adverse effects on your vehicle.

Enter a new era of motorsports

In order to provide players with a lifelike racing experience, Wreckfest makes use of high-quality graphics paired with realistic physics that perfectly capture the vehicles’ movements and the potential damage they may experience during a crash. As previously mentioned, the game also allows you to customize your vehicles to your liking, with each modification presenting some lifelike effects by adding weight and altering how you handle driving each car.

One great feature of this racing game is that it also allows you to play in multiplayer mode with a group of friends. However, this is only limited to local multiplayer, so you can only play with friends when you’re together in the same room. You can compete in tournaments, as well, where you can come across numerous unique race tracks — some goofy, others highly competitive.

Unfortunately, though, there are some visual glitches that can be pretty distracting, especially since they happen quite frequently. You’ll often experience the screen freezing every now and then, especially when you have your settings locked at a higher FPS. Keeping your graphics at a higher setting also leaves some issues that make it difficult for the game to recognize the actions you’re performing when using the controls.

Great premise, needs improvement

Overall, Wreckfest presents a thrilling game experience that you can enjoy alone or with friends. The realistic settings and lifelike movements make it even more enjoyable, as many aspects can also alter your driving strategy. However, it does need polishing to address some visual bugs that can make it difficult to fully immerse yourself in the derby. For now, you can simply lower your graphics settings to minimize any issues.
