GTS World Racing Game for iPhone

Handmark announced the release of their GTS World Racing mobile game for the Apple iPhone and Apple iPod Touch. With GTS Word Racing iPhone gamers can steer, break and accelerate their car simply by moving and turning the Apple iPhone or Apple iPod Touch device itself.

GTS World Racing is also available for Windows Mobile and Palm handsets, but the newly-announced edition was especially designed to make use of iPhone's built-in accelerometer and offer gamers a unique racing experience. Thus, those who try the game will joyfully find out that they can control the cars, accelerate and brake only by "moving and turning" the iPhone.

GTS World Racing features four playing modes: Single Race, Challenge Cup, Grand Tour and Championship. Moreover, there are four difficulty levels, three car types, 16 locations and 64 tracks to play on; thus, GTS WR seems quite a comprehensive game.

Talking about GTS World Racing, Paul Reddick, Chief Executive Officer at Handmark, said, "We are excited to continue releasing the finest in mobile content, taking advantage of the unique capabilities of our partners like Apple. We bring the highest quality mobile applications to the market for our partners and end-users, making the mobile experience both fun and productive".
Howard Tomlinson, Director of Game Development, Astraware, added, "We have a long-standing relationship with Pazzazz Games and are delighted to bring GTS World Racing to the App Store. I love that I can control the game holding and turning my iPhone just like a steering wheel, which really shows off how well the device's accelerometer works. This is classic arcade racing fun!".

GTS World Racing has been jointly developed by Handmark Game Studio, Aatraware and Pazzazz Games, and is available exclusively through Handmark via the Apple App Store at a one time purchase price of $7.99.
