This app is a racing game that takes place in the Stone Age. It gives you an option of being either a brog or a grag, which are male and female cave people. Then you get to pick your car from such items as a bone buggy or a turtle tank to create a distinct look for your player.
After you’re set up, you head to the track, where you race against three other players. You can choose a traditional race or the gather option, where you’re tasked with picking up items on your journey. To move your vehicle you touch an arrow on the left side of the screen to move forward and backward. Then you tilt your iPhone to determine more specific directions and lean it to increase or decrease your speed. Of course, this is a lot trickier than using a traditional keyboard or joystick and I spent a lot of time driving backwards or running into walls. It’s also pretty uncomfortable to have to touch the screen and tilt at the same time, but if you don’t your character will simply stop in its tracks.Only thing I missed when playing this app is the loud noises of other arcade patrons and the tickets the machine kicks out after scoring so many baskets you can cash in on lame prizes.
Once you get the hang of the steering, if you ever do, there are more obstacles to overcome – including ones that come from the other players. They can throw bones, ice balls and homing pigeons at you, and you can conversely throw them back. Other items you can pick up along the track include lightning bolts that make you go faster and sticky tires to help you hug turns. But watch out for the tornadoes, polar bears and abominable snowmen. They can really screw up your route.
If nothing else, this game is funny, with its eye-catching graphics and quirky music. However, the levels seem very long and there are no multiplayer options to keep things interesting.
