Neon Drift Alley

Neon Drift Alley doesn't care about realism and that's the point. You hold to steer, tap to drift, and the whole scoring system rewards how long you can keep the back wheels sliding through neon-lit corners. Chain enough of them and the car erupts in a boost that flings you down the next straight.

The tracks loop through a stylised night city with wet asphalt reflecting every sign. Controls clicked for me within two races, and by the fifth I was chasing my own times obsessively. It's the kind of game where a perfect run feels like a small win.

There's a steady drip of new cars and paint jobs to chase, all earned by playing. The difficulty ramps sensibly and never felt cheap. If you want quick, flashy, high-score racing, this is an easy recommend.

What we liked

• Drift scoring that's addictive to master
