Asphalt 5

Pocket racing done well.

Asphalt 5 for Windows Phone is a short and sweet Need for Speed -esque pocket racer that allows you the player to race, upgrade, and customize some of the worlds finest cars. The game features several real world locations stylized to fit the racing design, including Rome and Athens, among others, all with unique landmarks and visuals representative of each location.

The gameplay is frenzied, with tight corners and highly competitive rivals. Each map and game mode features shortcuts and secrets that can create an exceptional advantage were you to access them. The details on the cars is precise but minimal, and the customizations are mandatory for completion of the final races. The difficulty ramp is steep initially but it levels out midway through, and then the game becomes a grind, especially for completionists. It is however, a relatively easy completion, just time consuming. Expect 10-20 hours, depending on your skill and patience.
