Dustline Rally

Dustline Rally goes for feel over realism, and it mostly nails it. The cars slide generously through gravel corners, and learning to carry a drift through a hairpin is the whole joy of the game. Tracks are short loops you'll want to beat your own times on.

Controls default to tilt steering with on-screen accelerate and brake, but there's a tap-based option that I actually preferred. Car upgrades are modest and unlock through racing, not waiting, which I appreciated.

It's not a deep sim, and if you want precise realism you'll bounce off it. As a quick arcade racer for the subway, though, it's hard to put down.
