A mobile free-to-play racing game with optional micropayments. It was developed by a not well known studio called Infinity Vector. In the title, we assume the role of a professional driver and take part in races in which the goal is to get to the finish or complete a given number of laps as fast as possible. It is not an ordinary arcade production, though, for the developers have made efforts to make the driving model as realistic as possible while still being accessible. Various available cars (including Honda NSX Type S Zero, NSX-R, Mitsubishi Eclipse and 3000 GT or Nissan Silvia Spec.R) handle differently, which is provided by an advanced physics engine. On the other hand, you can't call Assoluto Racing a full-fledged simulator either. The game features very pretty and detailed graphics for a mobile production. While playing, we can adjust the camera to our liking, including placing it behind the car or from above the bumper.

Because of that, light generated by flares, flashlights, torches, and electric lamps are the players’ best ally as they temporarily create safe zones. In the game the player isn’t forced to focus only on defense – several weapon types and traps are available as well. However, the game focuses mostly on survival aspects and player must constantly look for new supplies and properly manage his equipment. The action is shown from a top-down perspective, and thanks to the use of Unreal Engine 4 graphics are of high quality.
