----- Hello everyone, I am the 'WM Review Team Leader – Username.' Today, I bring you an old game on the Android platform. It is also the first recommended game by the 'Review Team' – Smash Bandits. Hope you all like it. ----- 'Smash Bandits' is a racing game developed by Hutch Games Ltd (the developer doesn't seem to be well-known, can't find information online, unfortunately my English is poor). I wonder if anyone has played 'Crazy Police Chase'; this game is actually a sequel to it. In the new game, your role will take a 180-degree turn, as you become a highly skilled thief, escaping those pesky cops who chase you relentlessly! Since you are a thief, you can find ways to cause destruction! Crash, crash, crash, knock over those cops! You can even drive a tank and crush those fragile police cars! The game has added water stages, very fitting for the hot summer! || OK, let's enter the main interface. Doesn't it feel familiar at first sight? Cars flying off bridges remind me of the 'A8' London track ←_← Moreover, the game's menu switching method is different from most games on the market, using a left-right swipe to switch. This can be considered a major innovation. ----- Note: The first time you enter the game, there will be a tutorial-like cutscene, which you don't need to worry about. || Let's look from left to right to see what's available. ----- Character level system: completing certain tasks in the game gives you experience to level up your character. Character levels can unlock various items. However, looking at this level interface full of familiar elements, haven't we seen this in some games before? Exactly, it's a system typical of parkour games, but the developer boldly brought it to a racing game. This experiment is very successful and greatly increases the game's playability. ----- Leaderboard: nowadays most games have a leaderboard system. Nothing surprising. Not sure if connecting to the leaderboard requires a VPN.----- Settings interface. The settings interface of this game is relatively user-friendly. Unfortunately, you can't adjust the sensitivity of the car controls, and the awkward controls caused many people to give up on the game. ----- Car selection. The cars in this game really exceeded my expectations. Not to mention how well the vehicle models are made, the sheer number of cars already gives it a big-budget feel! Moreover, the cars can be upgraded, which further increases the game's playability! ----- Ready to start interface. It seems that there are two game modes in the game: one is the "Normal Race," where players play as a thief, escaping the police while wreaking havoc in the city. “Race” mode. In this mode, the player races against three other computer-controlled participants. (Since I haven't finished this mode, I won't say much about it...) ----- Loading. It seems that all loading screens in the game are the same, only the friendly tips change. || Official game start. The game's two major pitfalls begin... First, players encounter a very frustrating control method — the "half-reverse steering" system. Then, as you gradually get used to it, you realize there is no map navigation in the game?! And the distance display is so close. Then, you notice that the “navigation triangle” is so insignificant that looking at it is less helpful than just watching the road or following NPCs. ----- Fortunately, the game's graphics are still very appealing, and the car lighting and shadows are well done. The slightly rough outdoor scenery makes the main elements stand out clearly.(Here are some screenshots for everyone) ----- ----- ----- I forgot to mention just now, there is another major flaw in the game: the seawater, the suicidal seawater is like a globe. Moreover, the designer specifically set a level with a speedboat, damn it feels like running on a spider web. ----- Game Summary: Download: (url= Size: over 130 MB Language: Chinese, cracked Graphics: ★★★★☆ Replay value: ★★★★★ [Note: Loading may take a while. If it gets stuck, try entering offline.] This is the first review, any feedback is welcome. Your valuable suggestions are the motivation for our development! -----
