Players can choose between stock car and Ind圜ar racing, and either take a quick spin around any of the tracks on offer or tackle a full season. As per usual with EA Sports titles the presentation is excellent, with suitably annoying music and a truck-full of FMV sequences - including a series of interviews with Super Mario himself. If you're one of those people prone to keeping candlelight vigils outside public toilets sprayed ten years previously by one of your heroes - or, to be more specific, if you're a saddo fan of Mario Andretti himself - you'll obviously love this game. You'll need to switch viewing angles constantly to look ahead for approaching turns and behind for approaching drivers.

Midrace, you can switch between split-screen- rear, race-leader, and overhead camera angles without pausing. Prerace options include the ability to choose track-level Nose Cam or behind-the-car Chase Cam views. Increasing your involvement in the races is the multiple-view feature. Throughout the race, your car handles smoothly and precisely as it executes your most subtle moves. During the race, you have plenty to think about, such as deciding how far you can go between pit stops and picking the right time to draft a car ahead of you. Before the race, you customize virtually every aspect of your car from the engine to the tranny to the paint. You can select three types of racing experiences - Indy cars on twisty tracks, stock cars on a mixture of simple and complex courses, and sprint cars on big dirt ovals. The game ends if you fall into the void, though you'll have a couple seconds to try to fall on any point in the spiral below, reducing the path and getting even further.ProTip: Take your first few laps He'll help you execute maneuvers such as a Sprint-Car Slide.Ībundant options are the strength of Andretti Racing. Thus even when you can't cross a certain area you can still place yourself in a more advanced level if you can manage to pass over the next one. The idea is not just to get far, but to make it through the blue areas that you'll find along the way and that mark the current level.

The whole track is downhill, with some spots where you speed up and others where you slow down, so you'll have to know how to deal with this annoyance and forge ahead anyway. You have to make sure you send your ball in the correct direction, with just the right slope and speed. The controls are very simple: all you need is two buttons, a left one and a right one. Twisty Road! is a fun game of skill where you have to control a ball over a very narrow, winding path full of unexpectedly turns and impossible curves that you have to know how to maneuver if you want to make it any distance.
