Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
We love this game and its really fun, Please make an updated version.
This is a great manager game when will 2020 come out.
The game is great but the only thing is if you could get the team names correctly.
So when we try to pit for soft at the end of the race it would say penalty- use two different tyre compound like why Developers fix it.
This game is very enjoyable and simple to play, although their should be an option whether to perform pit stops manually/automatically, and more retirements should occur (the most Ive seen is only 3). Also, its already been more than a year since the 2019 update, so hopefully we get the 2020 update soon.
Pros 1. No internet required 2. Fast gameplay 3. Option to turn off mini games 4. Option to speed up gameplay 5. Lots of teams/contracts to choose from 6. Upgrades carry over to next season? Cons 1. Repetitive after a couple races 2. Havent had chance to use tires suited for wet conditions 3. Controls could be refined further 4. No graphics display, more manager than simulation.
One of the better mobile sports sims out there. But this game needs some simple improvements. 1. The in game ui can be buggy. We noticed an error on our iPhone 7 where the keyboard would come up for no reason. 2. Gameplay can get boring after a while. The game needs more stuff. 3. Sometimes you can cringe at the fictional names for teams. Other than that, decent simulation game for mobile. Hope the game adds more so we cant be board.
How come it does not rain in this game.
We are rating this 1/5 for you lying about Pro being free. You say it is free but it isnt and the Editer isnt free at all. If you guys are going to lie, dont do it. Its simple, we played this game a few years ago, we are like, we may want to play this game again but you guys ruined it. This is going to be deleted immediately.
So far, our only complaints are the manual control feature. It can be a little finicky, and to be honest, it doesnt look that great. Anyways we like the puns for the racer names, and we hope to see more out of this game.
This game manages to capture the heartbreak of a late race pucture that costs you a podium and the absolute elation of finally taking your first win just as well as any of the console games, and whats more, it does so without the triple A graphics or investing actual hours (sometimes) that it takes to do a full Grand Prix on the big titles. We bought the full edition, something we would almost never do for any other app, because it truly is worth it. The only thing we would add is some type of qualifying option. Other than that, simply brilliant. Keep up the good work guys. P.S. The names of the drivers and teams can be figured out easily for a hard core F1 fan, but they are so hilarious at the same time.
We really enjoy this game and there is some strategy involved in the races. We are not a fan of this latest update ;). But actual gameplay is not affected.
Espectacular,espero que saquen uno de ser un manager y manejar las tacticas.
We love the game, and how the the devs actually go out and fix problems suggested by others. The only issue we have is that on Mexico, the whole track map does not show on the screen, and it only shows the first sector, but besides this, it is great for any f1 fan.
Its a great game. The names make us cringe but we see why they are necessary. It would be nice if you could get some sort of a license and use the real F1 names and cars and stuff, but if not we understand. All in all, its a great game.
We love it, but why do you have to pay for a career mode.
This is a great game but we know why the names are changed to different names. He had to change them or else the game would get taken down from copyright issues from the FIA company. Anyone saying the app is bad, take this into consideration.
This is game is not good. The reviews are fake. The drivers names make us throw up and cringe. Make the game better and we will reconsider this review. For all those people who think you might get this game, DO NOT.
Well done and difficult to do well given the parameters. It's all the challenge we would imagine. Nice game. We like the UI especially. It's not too complicated and has the right balance of hands on gaming and using your brain.
This game is surprisingly fun. Similar to New Star Soccer, this game lets you upgrade your car, and move teams in order to achieve F1 dominance. Plus the ability to adapt to tire wear and fuel consumption makes this game great! It could certainly use some upgrades and additions, such as a continuous career mode, allowing you to play past 2015. Another great addition would be more in depth upgrade options. Overall, for being a free game it's fantastic. If you're willing to spend the small amount of money to buy the upgrade, it's even better.
It's ok for what it does except that you must buy lots of expensive upgrades to really get anywhere. They are super expensive and worse, they wear out after a number of races. Rip off.
First of all great game we've played it for well over a year now. Just a fun idea that you could introduce making your own helmet design or something of the sort. Seeing the car pull into the pits empty is kinda meh, seeing a driver in the cockpit with our helmet design might be cool. Totally not necessary though.
A beautiful game for any F1 addict . Cheers.
It's a good game, but it could be better, for example: it starts to get boring after a few races, and the driver challenges are not so fun.
Pretty good game but gets boring after a couple races.
Probably the best sports management game on the App Store (perhaps its only rival is iOOTP).
This game is very fun and funny. (Lewie Hamcheese). Thanks for making it! :).
This is one of the best and our favourite simulation game out there as it's really laid back.
We were easily 8-10 races in. We could never get better than 18th place. Either our tyres ran out too quickly or we didn't have enough fuel left. We tired managing fuel consumption but the our teammate always wanted us to hold off and let him take the lead. Which made us lose positions. Overall the game has a great concept but the minor details that come up on every single race make it impossible to enjoy.
This game is totally addicting with us completing 27 seasons but this game needs to be a lot tougher. We came within 2 points of the championship in a Williams and we've won the first three races of the season in a force India. Mercedes also needs to be farther up the field.
We're an f1 guru. Love the design. The strategy of the game is genius. Well done.
No idea why this game would crash during the first race, but it works now.
Can't beat the price if you're a fan of F1 and need a fix in the off season. Simple, but effectively gives you the feel of participating. We almost fell off the toilet when we scored our first point and woke up the wife when we came from 11th to win at Monza. Funny way to avoid F1 licensing as well.
We found this game and we told a lot of our friends to get it and we all play it in class. The other day we were playing it and we told our other friend it should have a multiplayer where you pick a team and you can do a single Grand Prix or a full season. We just thought it would be a cool idea.
Really like this game so fat but it lacks some depth.
This game has lots of potential but being able to win with a sauber kind of says its a really easy game.
The earliest version was a bit too easy, especially once you get to a good team and earn a lot of money. Now that's it's more challenging, it's even more addictive and fun. The best part about this game is the creator actually listens to users and takes our feedback, which has improved the gameplay and experience. So, thanks for that.
When we try upgrading to pro it only says the "store is unavailable at this time.".
At first we thought it was a bit cheesy, but then we got hooked after a couple races and before we knew it we had lost track of 2 hours and finished a season and a half! Very cool idea, well put together, and the team names are hilarious.
Truly lives up to its addictive nature.
We have been looking for a formula 1 manger type of game and stumbled into This little gem, it's definitely a great game and has a lot going for it.
