Nitro District

Nitro District is pure arcade racing with no interest in simulation. You tilt or tap to steer, and the drifting is forgiving enough that you feel fast without needing perfect inputs.

Tracks are short, which suits a phone perfectly. I could finish a full race at a bus stop and not feel rushed. The sense of speed is strong thanks to a good camera and punchy sound.

It's not deep, and the car roster feels a bit thin, but for a quick adrenaline hit it does exactly what it promises.
