Neon Drift Club

Neon Drift Club knows exactly what it wants to be: a pure arcade racer where sliding through a corner is the whole point. Steering is on-rails enough to feel forgiving, but nail a chain of drifts and you'll feel like a genius.

Tracks wind through glowing cities at night, and the sense of speed is real. We kept restarting races not because we lost but because we wanted a cleaner run. The car unlocks are cosmetic mostly, which we didn't mind.

Controls default to tilt or touch, and both work well. On a longer commute it's the perfect thing to pull out — short races, quick restarts, no fuss.

What we liked

• Drifting that feels natural fast
