The Asphalt game is certainly very familiar to mobile gamers. The Asphalt game was first launched in 2004 specifically for the Nokia N-Gage cellphone. The 3D visuals that were displayed were really impressive in that era. The next Asphalt series begins to offer better visual quality, new types of vehicles, plus new tracks. Now, in the age of smartphones, developers present Asphalt 9 Android.
Relying on today's strong Android smartphone specifications, the Asphalt 9 game, of course, also presents various astonishing things like the Asphalt N-Gage at that time.
Awesome Graphics
Display is the advantage that the Asphalt series games are trying to offer. Even so, Asphalt 9 carries visuals that really spoil the eyes of players. Asphalt 9 may be the best game in terms of display for mobile devices today. Presenting a view as if the player is behind the wheel and driving a high-speed car is certainly not easy. But that is capable of being provided by Asphalt 9.
The motion blur display that is applied to the entire screen, apart from the car, will produce a very exciting visual experience. For lighting using the HDR effect can produce an atmosphere that looks alive. Then there's the bloom effect which will result in the bright parts standing out from the surroundings. Crepuscular light strokes or god rays are applied to produce an axis of light entering from the slit and around the rim in front of the light source.
Asphalt 9 is also oriented towards particle effects. For example, the vehicle will produce sparks every time it grazes or hits the track barrier. Then objects on the road will be destroyed scattering everywhere when run over by a vehicle tire. What's also really fun, drops of water will splash on the screen and then slowly dry up. Other extraordinary effects were also found, such as lens flares for sunlight or exhaust tips when spitting fire when nitro is turned on.
TouchDrive Gameplay
Asphalt 9 presents quite significant and controversial changes to controls. The built-in control is called TouchDrive but players only have a little navigation to the vehicle used. So when a racing vehicle accelerates, brakes or reverses, it's automatic. What players can do is just drift, activate NOS and determine the path by simply scrolling the screen. If a choice of path is available, the route switching menu will be displayed automatically. Players can scroll right or left when they want to determine the desired path.
If you don't like it, players can turn off the TouchDrive option. But other options are not manual mode. In this other option the player can control the controls simply by touching or tilting the screen. Players cannot adjust the accelerator or brakes in Asphalt 9. That means, players will be in Auto Pilot mode. In this mode, players can only turn and keep the vehicle on track.
Level Up with Blueprints
In order to achieve victory in the race, players need a reliable vehicle. Because of that, players need some kind of blueprint in order to get a certain type of car that is more powerful. The blueprint can only be obtained if the player wins the race. Now, when the blueprint is sufficient, the player can immediately unlock the car. Players can also buy blueprints but the price is quite expensive.
Not only auto pilot control, Asphalt 9 does not offer a Restart feature. Therefore if a player stops in the middle of a race the result is a loss of 1 fuel. After consuming all the fuel to take part in the race, players must wait for fuel to be filled so they can continue the race. If you want the process to be accelerated, players can switch to other cars, play available advertisements, or buy them using real money.
It should be understood that Asphalt 9 is an online game, so the game can only run if the cellphone has an internet connection. As for the background sound business, the Asphalt 9 game offers a pretty good combination of electronic music that is adapted to the action on the screen.
So, if you're looking for a racing game with an almost perfect appearance, Asphalt 9 is the best choice. It's just that there are a few drawbacks, especially for vehicle control which is not so exciting. Player abilities are not well explored because most of them run almost automatically.
