This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon.
Changed a few of the pictures for races + some other minor fixes
Sky Gamblers: Races takes the high-octane aerial combat the series is known for and successfully retools it for competitive racing. As a flight-sim expert, I was worried that removing the guns would remove the fun, but the 'power-up' mechanics and the tight, low-altitude courses provide a different kind of adrenaline.
The sense of speed is incredible, especially when flying through tight canyons or around floating cityscapes. The physics are a nice middle ground between arcade and simulation—responsive enough for mobile play but deep enough that mastering your rolls and drifts matters. It's a gorgeous game that pushes mobile hardware to its limits.
Stunning console-quality graphics
Real-time multiplayer races
Deep aircraft customization
Varied race tracks and biomes
Use your airbrakes while turning to initiate a drift. This allows you to take sharp corners at higher speeds without losing altitude or crashing into the track limits.
Fly through the glowing rings to gain turbo charge. Save your boost for long straightaways to maximize your lead over the AI or human opponents.
Yes, Sky Gamblers Races supports MFi and other compatible Bluetooth controllers for a more precise flight experience.
I did not care for the game. The controls are cumbersome and difficult to use. The graphics are great and the concept is amazing.
I'd you like any of the "Sky Gamblers" flight games by Revo/Atypical, you'll love this game, which is a spin-off of Storm Raiders by a cooperation with an independent developer. But instead of combat, this is a racing game, a replacement for the now-defunct Breitling Reno Air Racing game. The flight controls and feel will be familiar to those who've played Storm Raiders. I could do without the power-up balloons, and wish it had realistic pylons instead of HUD-like markers, but it seems like a great compromise between sim and game. Highly recommended!
This game is a great Air racing game. I love how the creators based it off of sky gamblers. Get storm raiders first before this. Update: I only have four stars because I was able to beat the game in less than a week and get all the planes. There is no one on multiplayer. There needs to be more leagues of races. There is nothing left to do. Also add more planes. A jet division would be nice. Other than that it is great.
I love the storm raiders franchise and the previous games are all favorites of mine. Was excited about the new racing game and the graphics are great. But as others have said the controls are very poor, the planes are not responsive like in the other SG games. Plus there is no way to add dollars, so the process of upgrading is very slow and tedious. If they can improve controls and add a way to buy more points I'll revise review.
Was looking forward to this game cause of the storm raiders game and his easy those controls were to master to fly, this game is not the case at all. I urge the developers to try to bring those controls from the storm raiders sky glory game to this app. If they do I'll more than happily change my review and increase the rating.
Also, I play this game for 5 minutes with a 6s and my phone gets so hot I can hardly hold the phone. I have to stop playing because I'm too afraid I'm going to damage my phone
The graphics are good, that's the end of the positive comments. Controls are awful, sound never worked. Immediately regretted paying for this game. Waste.
I cannot recommend this. I've tried all the control settings and cannot control this plane for the life of me. This is not fun.
