iOS (iPhone/iPad) Critic Reviews

Reckless Racing 2 is bigger and better in almost every way and while it's not a leader in terms of new gameplay, it's still a benchmark for the platform.

Reckless Racing 2 improves on all of the original game's features and adds several more goodies such as career mode and car customization. This all combines to make it the best "rubbin's racin'" game on the App Store.

Reckless Racing 2 is much better than the last game, which was already great to begin with.

The comprehensive career mode, wealth of maps, and tweaks to the arcade racing formula has made this game more enjoyable in the long term. Add in the amazing visuals and music, and there's not much to dislike here.

On multiple occasions I've paid three or four times as much for games that have far less to offer and aren't nearly as fun as Reckless Racing 2. It bears repeating that this game can stand proudly side-by-side with almost any arcade racer on any other platform.

Fast and furious, Reckless Racing 2 raises the bar for iOS racing games through a combination of deft handling, gorgeous looks, and addictive gameplay.

Improving upon nearly every aspect of the original and including a load of new features, Reckless Racing 2 promises to be a huge hit among racing fans.

Although there are a plethora of top down racers on the App Store right now, I'd stick my neck out and say that Reckless Racing 2 is the best one out there, hands down, and will be for some time to come. Pixelbite have really nailed it with this one.

Reckless Racing 2 is a major improvement over the first episode, with a welcome structure that glues together the single races in a effective, even if not original way. A must-buy for arcade racing fans.

The deciding factor then is the multiplayer. It gives the game far more legs than the competition, and will no doubt sit as the dominant Arcade racer on your iOS home-screen. That is until the next super-sprint-style game hits the AppStore – no doubt in a few weeks.
