Apex Dust Rally

Apex Dust Rally doesn't pretend to be a simulator. It's an arcade racer where you lean into corners, kick up dust, and chase ghost times. Tilt or touch controls are both solid, though I settled on the on-screen steering for precision.

Tracks are short loops designed for repeat runs, and the handling model is forgiving enough that you'll keep shaving seconds off your best. The car upgrade system is simple but satisfying.

Where it shines is the feel of a perfect drift chain. Where it stumbles is content variety, as the later tracks start to blur together. Still a great pick-up-and-play title.

What we liked

• Tight, satisfying drifts
• Fast restarts for time trials
• Both tilt and touch work well
