If you’ve played any recent Grand Theft Auto games, then nothing in Gangstar Rio will be unfamiliar to you. To those of you new to the driving, open-world genre, all you need to know is that an entire city is open to you. Buildings offer various purposes: shops to buy weapons or clothing, garages to fix vehicles, or even property to purchase and expand your empire.
Rather than running from place to place, you have a smorgasbord of vehicles available to you. All you need to do is steal them. Jeeps, sports cars, motorcycles, even boats and jet skis are all yours for the taking. Driving is done by tilting your device and pressing the brake or gas pedals on your screen. In a very clever move, Gameloft has allowed you to play your music library through your vehicle’s radio.
Say hello to my little friend.
Other missions involve rescuing women from rapists, attacking a snitch outside of a porn shop, and scaring district attorneys with wild driving. Clearly, this isn’t a game for the young or easily offended. Nearly all of the cutscenes in the game involve coarse language and sexual remarks, so parents beware.
It’s easy to find the flaws in Gangstar Rio. The graphics aren’t exactly up to par with other modern games on the App Store. When speeding down city streets, you can often see buildings being rendered just before you pass them by. The combat system is also buggy. You’ll regularly be frustrated when trying to punch your enemies, because it’s easier to hit the air in front of them than actually land a blow. Finally, the missions aren’t even close to original. You’ll spend most of your time driving to a location, beating up some jerk, and then driving away.
Avoid crashing into religious iconography.
For those players on the go, Gangstar Rio is mobile-friendly. While Grand Theft Auto may have required you to drive around the city to reach your destination before even starting a mission, Gangstar Rio allows you to select a mission on the city map and instantly begin the mission. This will save you tedious driving time and let you really dive into the game.
Gangstar may not be for everyone, and its adult themes may induce eye rolling at times, but you can’t deny you’re getting your money’s worth here. There are a good deal of missions and side missions, but sometimes it’s fun just to drive around and jam out to your iPod. It’s important to take the warning screen at the beginning of the game seriously. This is an adult game with mounds of vulgarity that even someone with the dirtiest of minds and mouths will find unnecessary.
