Sweet racing game
Wed Nov 10 2021 Alex SashEDIT: like 5-7 years later got this game again. Played nonstop beat it in 7 hours - maxed stats, 999 research points, beat Kairoland track, have 2 kairo kars. Game was too addictive so deleted it lol. But super fun and very well made.
I love how much detail Kairo put into this. I mean they have successfully reached the hardcore race-fan crowd with this. Even in the animations during racing, the more you train your drivers the cleaner the apexes they take and the more they go WOT.
Also the names are a hoot and cleverly done, like "Ireton Cena", "S. Bettel", "Lou Hampton", and the game just seems to pick fun at itself and not
take itself to seriously as you play.
Fun game, if you like and respect racing, you'll enjoy it. If you like simulation/management games, you'll enjoy it too.
It's Fun
Fri Feb 17 2017 SchulminhaI have played beastie bay and Game dev story, and I liked the way you play. It may get hard at a point (formula Asia) but it's still good. If you are in thought of how to play, you use money to upgrade the cars and research new ones, while hiring and training a crew. You aren't the driver, all you do is watch, but it's fun to cheer
Still love it
Fri Dec 02 2016 Horn0901One of the few games that I've had on my phone since it came out. But can we please have a new one.
Stat won’t go up
Fri Jun 04 2021 Dahboi69Well I play this game since they released it and still play it till today. But there is a bug that never happened before. When I moved up to Formula Asia, I have 2 teams now. Normally when cars were fixed, the driver and crews’ status will go up randomly. But my 1st team stat got nothing, all I get is tech +0, pedal +0 and all +0. Do you know why this happened?
Great App

Tue Apr 11 2017 Shotgunman075Fun but it gets old. There is almost no replay ability for this game
Kairospot creates another hit!
Sat Sep 10 2011 JuuicetinI haven't enjoyed a Kairosoft game this much since Game Dev Story, but that's because I am not a big fan of the space management and planning layouts. This game has gone back to the roots of purely hiring, upgrading, and researching for your racing team. I know some people may find it tedious to watch your racer participate in the races, but I find it exciting to see the races unless I'm losing for sure. Perhaps putting in an option to skip races would appease some of the unsatisfied customers.
The only problem is to beware if you're playing on a 2nd generation iPod Touch. The training menu and the picture of your team is flickering which is quite annoying which give me headaches after prolonged periods of playing. I have heard of the case from a few people with 2nd gen iPod Touches and I hope Kairosoft fixes the problem because it is inhibiting the enjoyment of the game.
Kariosoft, You Make Addicting Games
Tue Sep 13 2011 AnythingQuietI got introduced to Kariosoft through the app game "Game Development Story" and further addicted when I decided to give "Hot Springs Story" a shot, now their games are on my "automatic buy" list.
Truthfully, I was a bit wary of buying this game because I generally don't much interest in racing, but I'm glad I pushed those feelings aside and bought it.
There's a satisfying feeling I get when I watch my driver race around on the track in the souped-up car I just upgraded, and watching what he does to figure out what new parts should be installed and what upgrades should be applied next. Also, there's another satisfying feeling when you're utilizing your time when you sign up for new races and while you're waiting for the race to begin, you can put in some research or some repairs to ready yourself. I can't wait what else Kariosoft releases next!
It's Kairosoft!
Wed Jan 18 2012 Ao HoshiSupport this Japanese developer, they are worthy of every penny you throw at them. This is essentially my dream game; it's got cars, strategy, endless replay value, and incredibly cute pixel art. Buy this game now, and for that matter all of Kairosoft's games, or I'll personally turn you into a ham loaf. Please?
Thought so. Ain't pleasant being a ham loaf (speaking from experience). KAIRO FOR LIFE \m/
EDIT: Also, those moronic, Angry Birds loving, potato chip eating, mentally bankrupt people who gave this game a poor rating can go jump through an elevator shaft. Those who only like games where you can shoot people in the face don't really get the concept of "thinking". Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but come on; this is the best game out for the iPhone, only rivaled by the other Kairosoft games. This is the game dev (pun intended) we've all been waiting for, ladies and gentlemen. Just give them the mic and let them do their thing. You won't be disappointed.
In case you didn't notice, the "mic" is your money.
EDIT2: Apologies for the long review (read as rant), but please add landscape mode support for older iPhone models and STOP THAT TRAINING MENU BLINKING D':
