Bike Race is a popular game played on smart phones or tablets that grows in popularity more and more every day! Bike Race proves itself to be a successful app, after being rated an almost perfect 4.6 out of a possible 5 stars on the Apple App Store. Not only is Bike Race a great game, but it is also totally free!

It is a simple game to understand, but a challenging game to master. To play the game, users must tilt the device to move the bike, and touch the screen to accelerate. It has many different features from unlocking new tracks, to unlocking new bikes for use in multiplayer.

Multiplayer is an option where users can play the game with friends. To play a friend, just select the “challenge” option. Frequent Bike Race player Alan Regulski says, “The multiplayer feature is a great option, and always keeps the game fun and interesting. Bike Race is constantly making new maps and updates, so it’s really hard to totally beat the game, which I like.”
Bike Race proves to be extremely popular among users, with over 30 million downloads. “It is definitely a favorite among my friend group. We all play each other, and it is a constant competition between us,” says Regulski. Although the app was created for the “low maturity” crowd, it is fun for anyone of all ages to play.

This app was developed and distributed by Top Free Games, who created four separate worlds with eight stages each. All worlds have a different theme. For example, two of the themes are called, “grassy savanna,” and “arctic tundra.” In the duration of the Bike Race route, users are challenged to drive the motorcycle through large loops, and small bumps. If they crash or fall flat, then it’s game over. Users must restart if they want to play the level over again.

The Bike Race app received good reviews from all over the world. “One of the first games I installed on my phone and one of very few to not get uninstalled. And the new update is awesome! Nice new look and you can make your own levels now! Five stars for sure,” says Luke Phillips on Bike Race reviews. This game can be found in the “Top Free Apps” category in the apple app store.
