This game is very addictive, making yourself constantly wanting to beat your last score. Nice simple graphics and ease of use. Why only 3 stars? Because it's missing the option of racing against friends in real time like at the Science Museum. You only race against their ghost and only one of them at a time. There should be an option to play over Chromecast with the whole family. Another issue is when designing your rover, the buttons are in the way so it's difficult to utilise the whole screen.

Great game, but as a lot of other reviewers have pointed out this game is missing a few practical features. This isn't such a big issue though as the main one is that it keeps crashing every time my score looks decent and so it never gets saved.

Rugged Rovers is a great game. Very creative, and fun to play with your family and friends. But I've discovered this glitch; if you trace around the motor, the cover your rover in the biggest wheels possible it will go much faster than ordinary rovers and will become bouncy. But on the whole I think this game is great 😀😀😀
