    Overall, #Drive is one of those feel-good runners where you just have to lose yourself to the gameplay and have a good time.

    #DRIVE is by no means a revolution as far as endless-runner games go, but its simple premise and addictive collection aspect delivers an enjoyable experience. While many big developers and publishers might not feel now is the time to venture back into making explosive arcade racers, I’m happy this one did.

    It has both its calm and frustrating moments, but when it looks as stylish as it does, you can’t hold it against it. A mobile-runner without the trappings, it compliments the Switch perfectly. Kick back, keep your eyes peeled, and just #Drive.

    Mechanically monotonous endless racer with charming visuals and loads of cool unlockable cars. Harmless entertainment, but not really a good racing game.

    #DRIVE is a low-key simulation game with pretty backdrops that will relax you but may not keep you entertained for long.

    The overly repetitive tracks and gameplay definitely works fine on mobile, but for a console experience – and one with a moderately high price-tag – this isn’t a motor that you’ll be taking out for a drive that often.

    #DRIVE obviously won’t scratch the same itch that a fully-featured racing game will, but if you’re looking for something to waste some time with, there’s fun to be had here. For an endless runner game, #DRIVE offers a reasonable amount of depth, and unlocking all the locations and vehicles is reason enough to keep coming back, 10 minutes at a time.

    It looks soo good, funny stage & car names, cool music. Lots of cars. However you probably will never drive them as the controls lag,It looks soo good, funny stage & car names, cool music. Lots of cars. However you probably will never drive them as the controls lag, oversensitive. The cars handling can be best explained as "its like steering a drunk sailor on a boat." You can swap to buttons only (like a Android/apple game ) or use the stick for steering. One brake button and one for drift.

    I kept playing the game for hours still hoping I get used to the oversensitive handling or at least a better car later ----nope. What a waste, the game looks great and interesting, but is pretty much unplayable with the controls now.    … Full Review »

    Great endless racers to waste hours, trying to beat your own high scores and maybe even reach a good spot on the leaderboards.
    My favourite    Great endless racers to waste hours, trying to beat your own high scores and maybe even reach a good spot on the leaderboards.
    My favourite thing is that it contains many cars that drove around on the streets here in the 80s, the time when I was a child, like the VW Golf model 1 which is the default car. Pity it doesn't have the licences to give the car models their proper names, but calling for example the default car "Das Holzwagen" ("the wood car" in German, although with a grammatical error) is also nice.
    Sprinkled in are a few references to pop culture.
    Car nostalgics might find some value in this game, I enjoy it myself.    … Full Review »
