The accelerometer-based tilt control is extremely sensitive and precise. The sound effects are sparse, but high-quality. Clean lines and bright colors make up a gridscape that moves at a high speed and a consistent frame rate.

Though the graphics are simple, they’re extremely well optimized for performance. You might be surprised how far you have to go before you’re a Speedx master! When you feel like you’ve done well for yourself, compare your high score against those on the global leaderboard for your selected difficulty. The available difficulty levels (“Pure”, “Easy”, “Standard”, and “Extreme”) appear to define the speed of the game and the number of obstacles. Since scoring depends on how long you can last before your shields run out and you crash through an obstacle, each game is a new chance to break your own record.

Like many excellent games, Speedx 3D is based on a simple premise that quickly becomes addicting. You tilt the handset to turn left or right, watching for hazards that include blackouts and shield-sapping poison clouds. The first-person gameplay consists of navigating an endless, colorful tubular structure while avoiding obstacles and using a few power-ups collected along the way. Speedx 3D is a simple game in graphics, control, and premise.
