Battle Riders App Reviews

This was a real fun game to play on a 5c. Very smooth controls and no crashing (at least on running the app). It reminded me a lot of an old pc game called "mega race". The developer made a racing gem on this one!

Get this game. Its fantastic. Lots of levels that will keep you entertained for awhile, game is challenging without being too difficult that you quit after a few days of progressing. Cant wait for more levels!!!

This game is how iOS games should be done thanks to no consumable IAPs. I refuse to DL games with consumable IAPs, and a lot of the other race games where you can build up abilities (the car speed,armor and weapons in this case) can translate into a lot of IAPs to unlock new vehicles and offer a fast track to advanced weapons. This game eschews these shortcuts and cash grabs by only unlocking new vehicles with victories and allows items to be upgraded with in game currency that has to be earned. So, kudos for restoring the idea of advancement through merit and resisting the urge to make cash grabs. But how is the game itself? In a few words: fun and challenging without being too difficult. The learning curve is graceful and not too steep. This game might be a little too monotonous for some, but for what it does have it does well. (see the next paragraph for the variations.) I find the repetition acceptable considering the many variation and challenges with the AI opponents. One second you can be in the lead about to win, and the next second another car can either blow your car up or slam you into a wall. So, you have to drive well, but there is some forgiveness with races that allow weapons. Each track has multiple places with pads you can drive over to either speed up with a temporary nitrous boost, reload weapons or gin credits to repair your car if needed. (Note: clean races have no weapon pads and Survival Races do not allow repairs.) There are 3 tiers: “rookie,” “racer” and “rider” (pro). Each higher tier is unlocked by beating the prior tiers. Each higher tier allows higher capacity weapons, faster cars and more deadly opponents. New tracks are unlocked with there being 3 main backgrounds/track types: “city limits,” “canyon” & “metropolis” with 6 different tracks each. Also there are 6 different types of races: Duel (2 car), Battle (first across the finish line), Survival (first to finish or only one to survive), Elimination (each lap eliminates the car is last place), Clean race (no weapons), and Time Trial (just you versus the clock to do 1 lap). About the only thing I would do to improve this game it would be to add tracks, more customization of cars (allow a 3rd or 4th tier of armor and weapons that allows one to trade off speed for armor,etc.) and a tier above “rider” that was online for live challenges. In 5 or 10 minute sessions (most races last under 4 minutes) this game excels at creating an entertaining game devoid of shortcuts to the top.

I fixed the lag but everytime i do a race it crashes please fix this bug!!

The orientation on the latest update, 3/9/15, doesnt work properly. The game wont play in landscape mode.

After this update the app always starts in portrait orientation. Unplayable.

Fixed!!!

The game seems to be stuck in portrait mode when I boot it up. I tried resetting my device, but the game is turned 90 degrees in landscape mode, and the interface is impossible to interact with Also half the screen is black and the game seems to try and resize itself when starting, but if never rotates to portrait mode. This was working fine before the March 9th update.

When I am playing this app the game play screen flips device screen the opposite way. I am forced to play the races with my device turn around with the camera lens below my finger tips. Also, the home screen is off centered.

Download it now

I must admit, Im very impressed with Battle Riders so far. Great visuals, competent but not oppressive AI, and plenty of unlocks to be had. The game feels slightly unfinished, like it could use a little more variety in tracks and cars/weapons. Multiplayer would be great, but I wont hold my breath. Either way, the game is plenty fun as is, I really hope the developer keeps adding to it.

This game was really fun at first, but it gets boring after while. If they added multiplayer and new weapons this game would be perfect!

I have enjoyed this game for a few weeks now but now I cant play after the iOS 9 update. The screen stretches beyond the display and is squished half way down the screen

Cant wait for update.

This was a great game before iOS 9!

Display has broken with latest iOS update. Looks like theres no plan to fix it.

Glad to have it iOS 9 compatible.

I love this game so much saw it finally got updated for iPhone 6 and got it right away. Only way it could be better is to add multiplayer

Creators decrease the quality of game and graphics and gameplay to make it compatible with older models to increase their players...this game should be better than this...

This would be a great complement and a different take on the racing genre for the new platform.
