Race Illegal : High Speed 3D

by HeroCraft Ltd

Device version: 16 GB WiFi only
Android OS version: 4.2.2
ROOT: No
Game: Log in to see links
Cost: Free , In-Game purchases , Ad-Supported (Banner & Full-screen Ads including a screen lock)
Game Version: v1.0.2 (@ the time of writing this post)
Installation size: 206 MB total (+ ~7.36MB cache)
Controls: Tilt & Touchscreen (On-Screen controls)
Layout: Landscape
Category: Racing (according to Google Play)
Compatibility: Very Good
Game-play: Hands down , truly a beautiful racing game sporting great graphics (colorful environment, shadows, light reflection, etc.), good sound effects and controls , and quite decent game-play. I initially installed a older version and was highly disappointed with HeroCraft as they plastered in-game advertisements over on-screen controls - needles to say the game was barely playable. Fortunately bad reviews on GooglePlay "encouraged" HeroCraft to re-size the in-game banner advertisements and the updated version works quite nice. HeroCraft again packed its free game with advertisements that are shown during game-play as well as between levels - the later ones include a (acceptable) 3 second screen lock.
Recommendation: Worth a try The advertisement screen-lock and in-game ads are downers , but the game itself is very good!
