The popular racing game, Kamikaze Race, is today's free iPhone game from the OpenFeint social gaming network. A deceptively simple slot racer, Kamikaze Race features a harried trip through rush hour traffic strapped into a car with no brakes and a stuck accelerator.
Developed by Orb Games Limited, known for their variety of Flash games, Kamikaze Race is sure to please racing game fans looking for a quick break on their iPhone or iPod Touch.
Kamikaze Race is a great slot racer game for the iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch
Kamikaze Race's simple premise makes it perfect as a quick racing game. Two virtual buttons at the bottom of the iPhone's touchscreen are used to steer back and forth. There's no brake, and the accelerator is stuck, so avoiding traffic while the car slowly accelerates is the key to success.
Traveling underneath the occasional bridge adds to the excitement, given Kamikaze Race's top down view. Most crashes occur at this point. It is possible to drive on the other side of the road, and a special OpenFeint achievement is available for this feat.
Social gaming network support adds to the iPhone game replay value
Kamikaze Race fully supports OpenFeint with worldwide leaderboards and achievements. The game also features two other car models which are unlocked by earning some of this achievements.
