The success of racing simulation games has been second to none, both for PC gamers and gamers who love to play on their mobile devices. That’s why the secret of Traffic Rider popularity, as they say, lies on the surface. By the way, Soner Kara, the developer of this game for smartphones and tablets, has another equally popular one – Traffic Racer.
Traffic Rider is a motor racing simulator. The player acts from the first person, that is, a motorcyclist. This makes the game more realistic and makes the experience more similar to the real racing.
At the initial stage of the game the gamer is invited to overcome the racing track on a scooter. But with some skill after two or three races can be accumulated enough money to either pump your “iron horse”, or to buy a new one.
The developers offer four game modes, each of which has its own characteristics, in its own way interesting and useful to the player.
The essence of this mode is the passage of a given route and at the same time performing a specific mission. The player must either pass the track for a certain time, or to overtake a given number of riders, or perform other tasks. The user who chooses this mode is given a map with routes to be passed. For each successful mission the player receives cash prizes, and as a result can collect game currency or to improve its existing motorbike, or to buy a new one.
This mode is both easier and more challenging than ‘The Route’ mode. The essence of the mode “Before the crash” – in its name. You are required to complete the route without a single accident. There are two options to choose from: a one-way and a two-way track. The latter, due to its greater complexity, has a considerably larger prize pool. This mode is only available to players on the second level, while double sided tracks are only available from level 20.
The essence of this mode is also in its name. The player is given one and a half minutes to complete the track, in which time he must score as many points as possible. The amount of prize money depends on the success of the course. This mode opens on level six, with only one-way tracks available before level 24, and two-way tracks after that.
This mode is a training mode for gaining skills. Both single-sided and double-sided tracks are available to the player.
Speaking about the merits of the game Traffic Rider first of all it is worth noting a very well developed and realistic graphics. The visuals are so realistic that it is a pleasure to play. Depending on the capabilities of the user’s device can set the quality of graphics: high, medium or low.
Also of note are the very affordable system requirements. Unlike many other racing games Traffic Rider does not “dump” gigabytes or more of data into the cache. The game is quite enough a little over 100 megabytes. You can play quite comfortably on a device with Android version 4.4.2 and 512 MB RAM. In addition, please please easy management and a solid number of models of equipment that you can choose when pumping.
The game has few drawbacks. You can even say that there are almost none. Is that users are sometimes dissatisfied with the fact that the tuning of motorbike is enough for a small number of missions.
