Apple Games recently posted a new feature focusing on Ambrosia Software's latest game, Redline. The racing title offers single and multiplayer competition using a variety of vehicles on six tracks. The feature reviews the gameplay and provides a detailed examination of each track.

Welcome to Redline, where you can live out your racing fantasies as you sit behind the wheel of some of the most powerful — and not-so-powerful — vehicles in the world. Eighteen of them — in addition to a secret car that’s a well-known variant of one of the others — wait to be unlocked by completing 12 challenges so realistic that the game’s manual refers to a website called The Physics of Racing, if you care to learn more about the advanced math and science involved. You’ll need to master all of them if you want to be any good at racing in Simulation Mode.

Luckily, those of you who’d rather not deal with the effects of each vehicle’s particular drivetrain setup, suspension, mass distribution, and other specifications can simply choose to race in Arcade Mode, where all of the cars handle the same. For a real thrill, try Turbo Arcade Mode, where physics get tossed completely out the window, along with realistic top speeds. Where else can you take curves at over 100 miles per hour?
