Coming Soon: Table Top Racing: Gamer Edition

A good game ruined by freemium gets a second chance

Good news for iOS racing game fans: arcade racer Table Top Racing will be getting a new “gamer edition” version to remove all of the ads, grinding, and freemium currencies.

From developer Playrise Digital:

“We’ve received an overwhelming amount of feedback from TTR fans worldwide and we’re pleased to be able to deliver on their top two requests, No Adverts! No Grind!” said Nick Burcombe, CEO Playrise Digital. “Table Top Racing: Gamer Edition features no advertising at all and the price of the Premium Cars, Upgrades, Paint Jobs and Weapon Wheels have all been halved! Just pure unadulterated fun for a one off price. We’ve left the option for In-App purchases in, but they are completely optional for those that want to cheat their way to victory or to support future development”.

I’ve been hesitant to recommend Table Top Racing because of all of the freemium nonsense. The Gamer Edition, scheduled to go on sale later this year, will hopefully solve that problem.

Gamers looking to get a feel for Table Top Racing should still download the standard edition for free. Just keep in mind, now would be a really bad time to purchase anything in it.
