User Rating:Cubed Rally Redline is yet another endless racing game. Ever since Canabalt appeared in Flash form, endless racers have had a special appeal. Cubed Rally Redline does not disappoint.
In Cubed Rally Redline, you drive a cubey car in a 5-lane endless road. Your goal is to drive as far as possible, while getting the most points and the most coins. To get points you have to drive over Drift powerups, that give you points each time the road winds (and you don’t change lanes) and to get coins you have to drive over them.
Gameplay is easy: tap left to change lane left, tap right to change lane right. The road is (usually) 5-lanes wide, and avoiding obstacles will be increasingly difficult… With the added bonus that you are forced to collect gas before it runs out. To help you in getting farther, you also have an emergency time break, which will make the game go in slow motion for a while. You’ll need it as soon as you hit the forests…
One thing I love about the game is how you can easily unlock all content. There are several improved cars you can buy, but to get them you need a measle 300 coins (for the last one,) something you can get in just 10-15 runs as soon as you get the knack of the game. Something to thank the developer for.
In short: Cubed Rally Redline will keep you very entertained and screaming at cows. You’ll know what I mean when you play it.

Would I Buy Again:Yes, the developer deserves it
Learning Curve:Low
Who Is It For:Endless players
What I Like:Easy concept, good execution and no need for IAP
