Freeverse offers 99 cent SlotZ Racer for iPhone, iPod touch for 3 days only

In what appears to be an attempt to remind me of all the toys I never got as a kid, Freeverse has announced the release of SlotZ Racer for the iPhone and iPod touch. Developed by Strange Flavour, “… SlotZ Racer puts the thrill of realistic 3D slot cars in the palm of your hand. Relive those great childhood memories of building tracks, burning rubber, and racing with your friends and family!”

Yeah, unless your family never bought you the big track you wanted because they had to pay for your brother’s braces. Thanks a lot, Freeverse. Jerks.

SlotZ Racer lets players race against the computer or friends; a unique control system allows up to 4 people to race on a single iPhone! Compete for laps or against the clock in Time Trials, drive an endurance race, (with simulated days and nights), or play a “Quick Race” to jump straight into the action. SlotZ Racer features an intuitive track editor to give the player the ultimate freedom to design their very own courses, and offers a wide selection of cars to race. The game also includes unlockable new circuits, cars, track locations and championship challenges to keep the action exciting and fresh!

Set up your track, clip together pieces, or even build a complete club style circuit. Players have the option to play with lane changing, or fixed lanes for the racing purists.

The unique control system mentioned above is a button. That’s it, just like the real thing. You push a button to make your car move, and you release it to slow down. The gameplay therefore centers around not taking curves too quickly, lest you fly off the track. Because of this simple approach, four people can play on a single iPhone simultaneously by each pressing a button in a corner. Who knew invading each other’s personal space could be so much fun?

SlotZ Racer is available now for iPhone and iPod Touch at an introductory price of just $.99. This special pricing will only last for three days, after which the game will be priced at $2.99.
