Need for Speed - Underground for the iPhone is a single player game with a good storyline. The story on this device is abridged when compared to the game on other consoles like Xbox & PS2.The game has a training mode to help walk through some of the basics of gameplay. This training if skipped can be replayed from the options menu and typically takes 5 to 10 minutes. The highlights are also available in the help to skip past the training.
Drifting is a valuable attribute especially when striving for style points but can be a little hard to find.
The cars right from the first race are quite responsive. This is one of the best car games on the iPhone due to the gameplay.
The tracks range from 1 minute to 4 minutes with a few exceptions.
This game on other consoles have a free roam feature that is missed by most.
The storyline is abridged and has only 6 to 12 hours of game play.
The graphics is good but could be better with improved antialiasing.
All that said this game is quite enticing and with the cars being responsive, gives the player the feel of actually being behind the steering wheel.
A 4 year old started playing this game and even won a few. This game kept him busy for 2 hours at a stretch and I had to trick him to return my smartphone. Believe it, he did not go through the training mode and has never played this game before.
I am yet to find a better car game in terms of gameplay on the iPhone making it one of the most addictive car games on the device.
