    A very tight and fun arcade racer.

    If you enjoyed Outrun back in the day you're going to love this!

    I do like the graphics and it's sound. Gameplay feels good so far, if you're using an Steamdeck - Controllers on PC are not supportet, you have to play this with WASD buttons. Seriously? And still no patch.

    On the other hand, this game simulates retro racers in the worst aspect. Collissions are pure poison and that makes it less racing but more like an bullethell shooter. you're seeking    I do like the graphics and it's sound.

    On the other hand, this game simulates retro racers in the worst aspect. Collissions are pure poison and that makes it less racing but more like an bullethell shooter. you're seeking for holes in the shieldwald (other cars), but if you want to collect all items, this is getting even worse, not to forget the low fuel items in the later stages, which are placed very rare on the tracks. I don't know what on this game is meant to be the "fun" part. It's okay for a few laps, if you don't want to complete achievements, then this is fine. But if you are serious aming for completition, this game will cost you many nerves.    … Expand

    The PC port of Horizon Chase slowly drops FPS during races for no reason. Lap 1, I'll be at 60, then Lap 2, 40, Lap 3, 30, and so on. It's a shame this makes it unplayable for me because when it wasn't constantly lagging it was very fun. The developers seem to care more about shoving fancy new cars into the game rather than fixing issues it's had (according to Steam forums) since launch.

    The game starts very well, at first with basic races and then depending on the updates you give to your car it gets more and more difficult, the weather action is something that also influences the course of the race, but what really loved is that I have permission from Kemco to even put the mythical soundtrack. Tremendous game i love it

    Первые впечатления - ностальгия по старым гоночкам.
    Дальнейшие - вторичность и задротство.

    Horizon Chase Turbo is a fantastic throwback to the arcade racing games of the 90s. The gameplay is a great mixture of easy to learn but hard to master, and the different game modes provide you with enough variation to keep you entertained for hours. The graphical presentation of the game captures the retro aesthetic immensely, with OST matching its themes magnificently. If you are looking for a racing game you can sit back and enjoy, then this is one worth picking up.

    Horizon Chase Turbo is a throwback racer for those who want to race with near-impossible odds at all times. Constantly starting at the back of the pack, the aggressive AI opposition, and the exaggerated physics system require nothing less than pure skill and tremendous luck if players want to get close to first place in any races. At the same time, the generous progression system and easy-to-handle controls mean that you can get quite far before you need to start being perfect. With local multiplayer and an excellent presentation in tow, Horizon Chase Turbo is a must-have for those who dearly miss old racing games.

    Despite its difficulty, I’ve been having quite a bit of fun with Horizon Chase Turbo. It certainly does feel like a game from the 80s/90s, as they were known for being quite difficult anyway. The selection of cars and tracks is quite nice, and it’s all wrapped up in a beautiful visual style. So, if you want to take a trip down memory lane at lightning speeds, I’d definitely suggest giving it a try. Just don’t throw your controller at the screen.
