Neon Drift Rally

Neon Drift Rally leans hard into the arcade side of racing, and that's a compliment. Drifting is the whole point, and the game gives you just enough control to feel skilled while still forgiving the occasional wall scrape. The neon tracks are pure eye candy.

Handling is tuned for touch, using a simple tap-to-drift scheme that clicks within a race or two. Upgrading your car actually changes how it feels, not just the numbers, which is more than a lot of mobile racers bother with.

It runs smoothly even on older phones, and the soundtrack absolutely carries the mood. Don't come for realism, come for the rush of chaining perfect corners.

What we liked

• Drift controls that feel skillful yet fair
