Idle Drift:JDM Race

pretty much an ad watching game with a little bit of car idle game in the mix. I spent probably 3 hours and 45 minutes watching ads out of the 4 hours I have into the game. I guess it's fun for the first 30 minutes, but it gets very expensive for upgrades very quickly, so it's a slog, even for an idle game.

Money hungry much? Can't completely disable ads by paying.. no, you have to also buy vouchers to skip ads so you can actually progress at something quicker than a snail's pace. Another thing, the fuel for races doesn't replenish unless you have the app open at all times. All for a game that's already difficult to stay engaged with, considering there's so little to do WITHOUT PAYING. If I wanted to devote 95% of gameplay to watching 2-3 minute ads constantly, I'd just go watch them on YouTube.

The push for ads is as bad as any other brainrot game, with consumable "ad tickets" being the only way to overcome it. It's extra scummy now as they trigger automatically if you tap the "buy" button one too many times and there seems to be no way to back out. It's a cute concept of an idler if you like cars, but I'd rather play anything else.
