The multiplayer game originally cost £8.49 but has been greatly reduced on both Android’s Google Play Store and the iPhone App Store.

Wreckfest includes fun challenges where you can race lawn mowers and three-wheelers, but also a career mode if you think you’re destined for the championships.

The PEGI 12 title still receives updates fairly regularly, with the last one rolling out in May this year.

Some users even cast the mobile/tablet game onto their TVs and play with a console controller, like Xbox or PlayStation.

Wreckfest is the self-proclaimed “ultimate driving playground!”

But players love it too, and 2,600 of them have given the game an overall rating of four out of five stars on Google Play.

Five star Google Play reviewer, Aaron Turner, said the game was “just as much fun” on mobile as it was on PC due mostly to the ‘superb graphics’.

“The option to buy the game was great as it means I can play it offline and there are no adverts,” he said, adding “I wholeheartedly recommend this great game.”

Tablet player Edward Kaplan added: “The game is worth every penny. The best racing game on the market.

“You guys really nailed it on the game physics, the turning, drifting, acceleration, damage to vehicles, aggressive AI, all excellent.”

Although he noted that the game “is a bit short” and that he’s holding out hope for future updates with more tracks and tournaments.

While four star reviewer, Senpai_Xeyod, wrote: “I love this game. The visuals are amazing, and the physics are perfect. I even bought the car packs.

“However, I have two issues. One, the game would benefit from more customisation as in manually creating your car liveries or paint jobs.

“Two, more demolition derbies. The game has an odd focus on racing.

“And that’s fine, but for a game called Wreckfest, there’s not a lot of derbies, at least in the campaign.”
