Absolute Drift for Negative User Reviews

✓ Learn about why people don’t drift automaticsVery inconsistent gameplay. Between the touch controls needing a thumstick that makes it playable, the constant guessing if the car is going to shift into next gear makes drifting incredibly frustrating. There’s no manual shifting option or any display of what gear the car is in so you don’t know how to plan your turn. Basically it’s a complete random guess if the car is going to turn into the wall or start actually drifting. I really like this game but I’m getting bad frustration levels from the inconsistent way the car behaves and no way to read it..Jin2236Version: 1.0.8

✓ Absolute Drift 😕👍Cool game but very hard too control unless you have one of those phone controllers which you connect one piece on each end of your phone! 📱 even then it’s rather difficult too control guess that’s why they call it “Drift” but I guess with alot of practice you’ll get there!! I was abit hasty when I write my first review on this app! I still stick too what I said about this game being over priced 😎👍.Chickenman2014Version: 1.0.3

✓ Paid version has adsAd revenue must be tiny compared to what I paid for this game, why ruin the experience?.P-DizogVersion: 1.0.8

✓ This is a hard game. That’s ok.... exceptI can’t keep my fingers on your stupid buttons!!!! Why not use the button sizes of games that work well? The narrow button placements consistently cause me to make errors and when the game is this difficult.... I hate losing cuz my finger was off by a 1/16th of a inch..I like thisVersion: 1.0.7

✓ Good game but some major issuesThe steering feels sluggish at best, the clipping points are super bipolar and the controls are too close together..Hennessy_101Version: 1.0.8

✓ If you like games with higher than 5 FPS then give this a miss (on iPhone X)....Fin1yVersion: 1.0.3

✓ PLEASE ADD MANUAL GEARING I LOVE THIS GAME BUT IT NEEDS MANUALAfter fully completing the game on PS4 after putting countless hours into the game I decided to buy it for my phone and play it anywhere. But the fact there’s no manual gearing like on the PlayStation version is a serious let down Please add it the game is unplayable to someone that used to use manual gearing as it feels so unnatural and uncontrollable Great game otherwise and adore the art style and chilled vibe.I like driftingVersion: 1.0.8

✓ BuggyAlso whoever decided to put the retry button next to the finish button is probably the biggest detractor for your game. Its annoying and a bad design choice. So much so that instead of giving you 5 stars i look the time to open the app store and write this to give you 1. Fix it..Cody15951Version: 1.0.8

✓ Would be a 5 with better controlsI like the games core mechanics and I feel like it would be awesome with a controller, but with the on screen buttons it’s too hard. The goal is supposed to be to balance the car on the knife edge of a perfect drift. Doing that requires really precise controls and it gets frustrating when you hit a wall because you tapped a few pixels above the button (and by extension it didn’t register)..JimesKVersion: 1.0.7

✓ KEEPS RESETTING MY PROGRESS!!When I found this game it looked pretty great, and I was right, then after updating the game it reset my progress and keeps doing so whenever I close and reopen the game. Please fix this it was so fun but now it is pointless 🤬🤬🤬.Shrimp oVersion: 1.0.5

✓ Read for the truthSo I bought this game for £2.99 and I don't know why I did it won't load it just crashes every time I try to load any setting it got close once but once in 27 times the rest it loaded for about a minute or more which is to long the crashes complete rip of oh and I would give this game or loading screen zero stars but I can't.Malacheese 124Version: 1.0.8

✓ ! ! ! J U N K ! ! !Money back please It was a little fun till I Got an add after just 10 minuets of having a go, I paid cus you don’t get ADVERTS when you pay. It’s nothing like drifting, it’s like the tires are made of solid Grease and the car is 3 tons in weight You should be ashamed, please keep this sort of junk away from apple Dr Jeff Morris.Dr_Jeff_MorrisVersion: 1.0.6

✓ What did i even pay forThe app doesnt work. At all. Money back please.IsbebdicVersion: 1.0.3

✓ Progress Lost x3This game is a lot of fun but will actually request a refund as have had my progress reset 3 times now hoping it would be fixed.... for a paid game this is unacceptable..JakalaknVersion: 1.0.5

✓ Poor controlsAs a fan of the PC version I’m really disappointed with the poor controls. Game still needs an option for a proper follow camera..Eldar MisanthropyVersion: 1.0.1

✓ Unoptimised battery burner‼️IPhone6 gets so hot the processor throttles back and it plays like 💩💩💩. Insta-refund..Corky McButterpantsVersion: 1.0.1

✓ Very annoyedJust spent £2.99 on this game and it keeps crashing before it even opens, haven't even seen the start screen!!!! Refund please.HalspaushsksndbsVersion: 1.0.5

✓ Why the Red Cross?Boring, meaningless mission. Why do I need to search for the stupid ❌ in a drifting game... Also can’t change the position of the buttons? Why....CivvvlVersion: 1.0.8

✓ Paid but you still get adsI found the game fun and the style is truly unique but after paying for this game I do not expect to be shown ads. I requested a refund because of that alone otherwise I would have kept playing the game..OkizemeVersion: 1.0.8

✓ Held back by poor controlThis is awesome. And very difficult to master, because of touch controls. Very easy to miss a steer because the thumb fell under or over or left of the button. Can I suggest adding a virtual stick option?.MatttttthhsxzzVersion: 1.0.11

✓ Does what it says on the tinIs drifting game. I originally bought this on pc, and really liked the pc version. The game doesn’t work as well on a small screen. As far as I can tell, this is a port or clone of the pc version. I’m not getting the same kind of enjoyment out of this on the small screen..Sly HoaxVersion: 1.0.6

✓ Bit annoyedWas really looking forward to this game. Seeing it being played on PC and thinking such a simple but fun game. Tbh for a mobile game its as expected the controls take some getting use to but once you get going its not to bad. Its easy to progress and its passes the time and is enjoyable. Ive played a fair bit in the past 4days and got a decent way into the game, but went to go back into the game today to find that its been reset back to the tutorial! I tried resetting my phone signing back into the game centre and nothing all had been gone and been made to start again. With a game that I've paid for and having this happen I'm disappointed. Worth a buy but look out for this problem.Rhysj361Version: 1.0.5

✓ Best game I’ve ever played until this happenedI’ve played this game on PC and was so excited to see it come out in the App Store. I bought it in a heart beat and loved every second of it. 1. Graphics, amazing 2. Controlling of the car, amazing 3. Music, amazing 4. The way the blocks flew away when I knocked into them, amazing The thing that messed it up for me is that when I woke up this morning I hopped onto the game and it hit me with the tutorial... I am now at square one and lost all my progress..Kbaezmaster1Version: 1.0.5

✓ Poor levellingEasy mode is sadly far too difficult for me despite much practice. Insufficient scaffolding to help me progress, just patronising “you’re crashing a lot” messages. Yeah I already knew that. Shame as I expect I would like this game a lot if the gameplay was accessible enough to let me get into it without constant disappointment and frustration..Jerusalem PandaVersion: 1.0.8

✓ Solid but wish it had a few improvementsFun game so far, but I wish there was more feedback for how fast you were going, seems like all of a sudden you can have a ton of speed and drift out of control. Speedometer or tach maybe? Playing on an iPhone X, phone gets pretty hot after playing maybe 10 minutes and severe lag sets in with it. Hope that at least that part can be fixed..Misfitskater6Version: 1.0.2

✓ Terrible mechanicsI understand most people playing don’t drift in real life but these mechanics are the worst I’ve ever seen. Car has no option to increase horsepower and anything. No manual option. YOU GIVE US A TIP TO TRY MANUAL MODE AND DONT EVEN HAVE IT!!! Waste of money....Saltlife insta: Kris_WycheVersion: 1.0.5

✓ CrashCool game, but it crashes my phone. I can’t play for 5 mins without my phone crashing.TriggerHapppy84Version: 1.0.2

✓ RubbishI, too, am experiencing the app crash as it begins to load. We'll see what the developer's support team come back with but I honestly can't see it being anything more than a refund. Very disappointing:(.AircraftNutzVersion: 1.0.6

✓ Least fun versionThis game is much more fun to play on the pc or console. It’s too small on an average size phone which makes it difficult. I would not recommend unless driving and drifting on a phone game like a pro is already your thing..Sjaj331579Version: 1.0.3

✓ Unplayable with on screen controlsThis is just unplayable with the on screen controls. The 'tutorials' are just simple levels with a set of targets to achieve, but no actual tips or tutoring is offered so if you don't know how to play, you either have to really want to learn or it's all a mystery. Lovely visual style, but too frustrating to call it entertaining..RFC 1149Version: 1.0.6

✓ Overheats iPhone XThe game seems OK, I’ve definitely given it a few goes to try and master the drifting, but a couple of points for me reducing my rating: - the phone gets ridiculously hot very quickly. To compensate the iPhone starts dimming the screen and slowing down the processor, so it gets very laggy. Seriously, not more than 5 minutes play before seeing issues - the controls are sluggish at best. It doesn’t feel responsive and this leads to quite a bit of frustration. I love the art style, and the concept, and the challenges. Fix the performance issues causing overheating and it would be a solid 4 Star review..DjmichaelbVersion: 1.0.2

✓ Also deleted my save twice!Don’t buy until they get this fixed! Sad because it’s one of my favorite games. We need manual button size Mg and positioning. Also an option for a manual transmission would be nice! iCloud as well, if it’s not too much to ask for!.Bacon-N-EggsVersion: 1.0.5

✓ Poor gamePoor game, it’s more like driving on ice than drifting. This is a poorly coded game, which is not worth £2.99..NikCS9Version: 1.0.1

✓ TerribleSo bad the game is boring and hard, instructions aren't clear and the gameplay is low quality.Swarrier7Version: 1.0.2

✓ Last update deleted all my progressThis is a pretty cool game, but it is way too buggy for a premium title. Menus don’t always work, especially the back button. Worse, menu layout is ridiculous. Want to adjust controls or car setting? You need to exit to a world, hit pause menu, select Main Menu, select controls, adjust controls, then exit all these menus. If that weren’t enough, most of the time the back button doesn’t work and I need to change languages in order to resume playing. Poor optimization makes even a iPhone X slow down and overheat. Controls are average and lack enough customization. The game has no shifting option, but tells you to enable manual shifting to improve control. Feels like a taunt. Finally with the last update all my progress was lost, including unlocked cars and access to other worlds. That just put me over the edge and I’m done with this game. A premium title shouldn’t be this buggy..PolymathicVersion: 1.0.5

✓ UPDATE DELETED MY PROGRESSThe game was going great. There were occasionally some bugs and the controls are OK, but the last update had a problem. I updated and the beginning story appeared. I drove through all of the tutorials and everything was gone. I had been playing since the game came out and had done a lot. Devs, I really hope you can fix this..Grant WigginsVersion: 1.0.5

✓ Not a mobile gamePlayed and loved previous noodlecake games and this looked super cool so thought I'd give a go. Didn't realise this was not a mobile first game, sure it would work great with the precision of a controller but the touch screen controls are unusable. Maybe if I spent long enough I could get the hang of it but if by the end of the tutorial I don't know how to control the core mechanic something is wrong..Matt LedgerVersion: 1.0.8

✓ I want to give 5 stars but....This is one of the best drifting/racing games I’ve played on the App Store....but....I’ve lost all my progress 3 times now for unknown reasons (even without an update occurring) and I can’t figure out whether it’s just a mechanic of the game (I hope it isn’t) or if something is wrong with cloud save/updates. Please help..Heftyfaun03Version: 1.0.5

✓ NO MANUALWhere is manual control? Even with a controller there is no option for manual. Can’t play properly..Shannon-nzVersion: 1.0.8

✓ BugIf you go into setting they won’t save and you can’t back out. Please fix..WheatjrVersion: 1.0.2

✓ Incredibly hard learning curveThis game is incredibly hard to grasp and that’s coming from a pro player. I think the drifting mechanics need a refining and the car needs a bit more control when oversteering. Also, it’d be helpful if the buttons are a bit bigger... just make them transparent so you can’t see it..The Dollar BoxVersion: 1.0.2

✓ This game may be OK. No tutorialThere is not much of a tutorial so it takes you a while to figure out just how to control the car. Fairly difficult. I’m waiting for it to be fun..TosoVersion: 1.0.3

✓ Tank on iceTerrible handling, the car is so heavy with zero grip. It’s like driving a tank on ice..Mr_minty_76Version: 1.0.1

✓ Progress resets every time I close the app.I have played the first three worlds over and over again because my progress keeps resetting. I can accept in some cases losing progress after a big update but this happening every time I close and re open the app. I did enjoy playing this game but if I wanted to start over from scratch every time I wanted play a game I would go back to my NES..Talley1985Version: 1.0.5

✓ Great on PlayStation but ...Love this game however it falls short on IOS. Sadly there is lots of crashing and bugs. A real shame as it’s a great game!.MildSightVersion: 1.0.1
