Good game. Been playing on and off since it was new. Has a great free model, very fun even with limited cards, and there is a decent community playing. Watch the recent tournaments on YouTube to get a good feel for how it plays, this one is a lot slower than most cars games and has come from behind mechanics which helps you recover from a bad start. Could use better AI for those times when network isn't available, but overall it's fun.

Overall it's a well designed game, and it seems balanced. The only complaint I have is that as a free player, it takes alot of grinding to get booster packs. Each game takes between 10 and 15 minutes typically, and after the first couple of levels it takes dozens of them to get a level, which only amounts to 1/4 of a new booster pack. It's hard to get into multiplayer (which rewards better) when I still don't have a decent collection of cards to experiment with.

It's alright. I can't seem to get the pace of play to stay consistent. The animations are so slow and when I adjust the slider it doesn't seem to do anything, sometimes if I put it on the slowest setting is when it seems to go the fastest. It needs an automatic stop for using cards as resources because when I'm at 7 I don't really need to sacrifice anymore cards
