Bug fixes and improvements
Kanjozoku Racing captures the gritty, late-night spirit of the Japanese 'Kanjo' street racing scene perfectly. This isn't a glossy, licensed racer like Asphalt; it’s a raw, enthusiast-focused game that prioritizes car culture and customization. The focus on 90s JDM icons is a massive win, and the level of detail in the tuning menu is staggering—down to adjusting camber and offset.
The driving physics lean more toward the sim-side than arcade, which might be a hurdle for casual players, but it's exactly what fans of the genre want. Weaving through traffic on the Osaka loop at 200km/h feels genuinely dangerous and exhilarating. The engine sounds are punchy and realistic, and the overall aesthetic feels like a love letter to games like 'Tokyo Xtreme Racer'. It’s an absolute gem for anyone who loves JDM culture and street racing history.
Authentic JDM car list
Deep mechanical tuning
Realistic highway environments
Online multiplayer lobbies
Don't just buy the biggest turbo. Balance your engine power with suspension and tire upgrades to ensure you can actually handle the corners on the highway. Lowering your tire pressure can help with grip but might slow you down on long straights.
Use tilt or touch controls to navigate traffic. In 'Kanjo' mode, you earn points for 'close calls' with civilian cars. Be careful: crashing at high speed will significantly damage your car and end your run.
Yes, the game features a comprehensive livery editor, body kits, and wheel customization.
Ok so I played Kanjozoku the game first on PC before the Mobile Version released and I will say this the game it good especially for the mobile version of it however my biggest con is having the normal Supra as subscription exclusive if they made the car have a unique body kit from a very famous car enthusiast then that would of been fine. I will say they lower the prices by a lot compared to the PC version which is a benefit because now people can grind and actually obtain their favorite cars and upgrade them to the max which is awesome. Making the game have races like having a cool start up scene before a race start is amazing and I love it and I love the Kanjozoku career. The game is basically the same as pc just you know miner tweaks and different stuff that makes the mobile version different from the PC version which is good in my opinion. I just wish that mobile had online as well both versions be able to play with friends. Other then that I give the game a solid 4 out of 5.
I love the whole concept of the game and the features such as customization and engine swapping are very entertaining (if it works), but the execution and launch of the game is really lacking. Graphics are fine, but the game glitches so much that it really affects the playability of the game. For example, sometimes I would be launched into a race with my car flipped upside down. Not to mention, the frequency of ads are ridiculous, and sometimes the customization option doesnt even work on the vehicles Ive bought! Ive been trying to tune the 2000 GTR, but nothing happens when I choose the option to change the fenders or the bumpers of the vehicle! Theres a lot of work that needs to be put in this game, but it has decent potential to become the best “illegal” racing game out there. Good job to the devs btw, but its needs more work and finalizing.
I’ve been playing this for the past 2 days and from what I’ve experienced, this game has great graphics, but the thing it lacks is the effects on the drifting. It’s too flashy and In my opinion it would be better If you left it as smoke. second, the free roaming during police chases are boring, the highway exits are really just for design. also the NPC cars are just ridiculous when they turn into another lane. overall this game is great but just has some flaws.
So I really was hoping this game would be… something. It’s not the worst game out there by far. It plays well, looks decent and you gain money fast enough to upgrade cars. Yet there are some fatal flaws. First off, there are only poorly animated and designed anime girls as the available characters. I’m unsure why that is but I could probably take a few guesses. Second, the game lacks sustenance. The challenges have no weight to them. You dont have to hit drift goals by a certain time or mark on the track you just keep going. The police escape meter will just arbitrarily drop making you have to drive your slow starter car for even longer. The ads are numerable and MISERABLE. The only option to be rid of them is a 20 dollar a month subscription (to be clear it is a $5 payment weekly). Ultimately, the groundwork is decent but there is a lot to be desired.
From when you start up the game to every level, you receive an ad. Don’t get me wrong the game isn’t too bad, graphics is pretty decent for a mobile game, the physics is well, and UI is pretty easy to understand. The thing that gets me mad is the amount of ads you have to watch, then they give you 5 gems like it’s enough to get me to shut up. What’s not making me shut up is that the only option to remove ads is if you pay for a $5 weekly subscription. What? A $20 month subscription for a mobile game for you to not see ads? The creator of the game should be ashamed of themselves, there’s no justification for them to do this without giving us an app that is better than a game made on unity by a middle schooler. The models in this game looks like they ripped it off of the free model marketplace.
It’s decent at first, but it needs a major overhaul, along with its sequel Kanjozoku 2. The first big issue is the lack of variety when it comes to the car selection. Almost half are the exact same car except with AWD. It’s disappointing because I expected more different options, such as Suzukis, Toyota Celicas, more Mitsubishis like a Galant, Eclipse or a 3000 GT. Also, no Subaru models and only one Porsche? What the heck? Please add more variety of car choices and even some American or European options too. The second major factor is only girls in the character selection, not to mention also that not all girls have animations, or you can’t change their looks or fashion. Please add some male characters and fix the females too.
I have the console version of the game and it is very different from the mobile version. On console it's a pretty good game and it's fun to run from cops and avoid traffic, but on the mobile version it is more like a champaign. Also there is a lot of ads. The PC and console version cost money and mobile is free so it makes sense for ads but there is way to many. Also you have to pay for the characters which are usually free on the other versions. Overall I don't really like the mobile adaptation but it's good if you don't mind the ads.
What’s up guys! So I would of rated this game less stars because of the Adds! It’s out of control this game deserves 5 stars but the adds ruin it there’s just way too much they should only be a option to watch them to earn more money easy adding a option to do so if earning money was at least little bit more difficult. I want to rate it the game way lower but I actually like it so I feel bad I’m rating 2 stars just in fact because I like the game it deserves 5 I will change my rating to 5 once adds are gone other than that it’s a cool game hands down.
