For years they tried to imitate it, the great top gear arrives in a collection with a different name and adapted with several improvements and advantages.
Developed and published by the Brazilian QUByte Interactive, the Top Racer collection is one of several projects by this company that features several games from different genres.
The game is available for: PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Microsoft Windows, Xbox One, Xbox Series X and Series S
STORY
The Top Gear game, although devoid of an intricate plot, left an indelible mark on the Brazilian gaming community. For many years, he was acclaimed as one of the pioneers of racing game entertainment. A distinctive element that contributed to its longevity was its immersive and captivating soundtrack, which deeply resonated with a generation of gamers in Brazil.
In the era of tape rentals, Top Gear has emerged as one of the most requested titles. Its exceptional gameplay was just one facet of its appeal. The game also featured meticulously crafted progression, a rarity at a time when many games relied on artificial difficulty to prolong the gameplay experience.
Thus, Top Gear was not just a racing game, but a complete and immersive experience that captivated players with its unique combination of elements. This combination of factors made Top Gear stand out as a milestone in the history of electronic games in Brazil, ensuring its place as a timeless classic that continues to be remembered and appreciated to this day.
GAMEPLAY
This compilation certainly comes to revitalize a franchise that had long been dormant, largely due to its relative international lack of success as a video game title. Although the Top Gear label has been used in other media, it is likely that this was one of the reasons for avoiding the use of the same name. The Top Racer collection brings all the immersion of old games, with menus updated for the modern era and features that make interacting with these classic games much easier, keeping their gameplay intact while improving areas where needed, especially in terms of interactivity options, including progress saving and modes that were not originally available in the original games.
It is interesting to note that, in some game descriptions, three titles were always mentioned, but this compilation presents four games from the franchise: Top Racer, Top Racer 2, Top Racer Crossroads and Top Racer 3000. Some of these titles I had never tried before, and I actually didn't even know them, but I had a lot of experience with the classic Top Gear. I can say that this collection honors everything that old and memorable games represent, demonstrating the developers' care and respect for something that was so special to us at some point in our lives.
ACHIEVEMENTS
We are often faced with an unfortunate situation when it comes to achievements in games, which often discourages trophy hunters as companies seem to not adequately consider this audience. However, in Top Racer Collection, the approach is different! The achievements are achievable, at least most of them, and care is taken to include some challenges that are really difficult, but not impossible, largely due to the save state feature offered by the game.
I would say that all you need to complete this game's achievements is time, and considering that the game is enjoyable, fun and has an extremely captivating replay factor, it is commendable to recognize QUByte Interactive's approach.
They avoided making the common mistakes that many developers and publishers make when it comes to smaller titles. The biggest difficulty you will encounter is completing a campaign in each game, guaranteeing first place in every race. However, with the save state at our disposal, this task comes down to just the investment of our time and the pleasure we feel when completing the game or not.

RESUME
What a pleasure it is to follow a classic game as well cared for as Top Racer Collection. It's a real feast for the eyes, a flawless, perfectly executed experience. I just wish more games that were successful in the past received the same level of attention and care that QUByte Interactive put into Top Gear/Top Racer. For me, this is the definitive version of this classic, and I recommend it without hesitation, even to players who didn't have the opportunity to experience the originals in their day. They will certainly be able to have fun and get involved in this game's classic and impactful soundtrack.
