Hill Climb Racing 2 is a perfectly accessible, addictive racer. If you’re having trouble, go back to earlier levels and grind out some cash. Use your hard earned gold to upgrade your engine, grip, suspension and all-wheel drive to keep yourself in top-top racing form. No matter how strategic you are, sometimes it comes down to pure mechanics. In between races, don’t forget to head to the garage to upgrade your car. Constant acceleration means more gas wasted, so learn how to keep the balance.

If you power up hills and coast downhill, you shouldn’t have trouble maintaining speed.

As per the above advice, you don’t need to be using the gas constantly. Watch your gas meter carefully and speed up accordingly. Of course, you can’t win a race if you run out of gas. If you’re worried about speed, tap the gas until your front wheels start to leave the ground, or go full throttle at the bottom of the hill to give you a renewed burst of speed while still maintaining control. It’s fun popping wheelies, but it can slow you down needlessly or damage your car. Speed up, of course, when going uphill, but do go a little easy on the brakes when you’re headed downwards.

You’ll need a light touch on both the gas and the brakes if you want to consistently come in first place. Hill Climb Racing 2 is a physics racer, meaning you can’t just zip around and expect to win with sheer brute force. It’s a lot of muddy, physics-heavy racing that is incredibly satisfying, although there is a strategic element required, especially when playing against human opponents. Hill Climb Racing is back with an even more popular sequel that’s been climbing hills of its own in the App Store.
