Dustline Drift

Dustline Drift knows exactly what it wants to be: a loose, dusty arcade racer where sliding around corners is the whole point. Tilt or touch steering both work well, and the cars have real weight to them without ever feeling sluggish.

Tracks are short and stuffed with shortcuts, so learning a route is half the fun. The rubber-band AI keeps races close, which some purists dislike but I found it kept every race tense right to the line.

There's a career mode with tidy progression and a handful of unlockable vehicles. Nothing revolutionary, just a tight, fun racer that runs smoothly even on older phones.

What we liked

• Buttery drift handling
• Short, replayable tracks
• Runs well on modest hardware
