Illusion Labs Releases ‘Touchgrind BMX 2’
Swedish developer Illusion Labs, known for some classic iOS games, are celebrating their 10 year anniversary with their newest title Touchgrind BMX 2. Now available to download on the App Store, Touchgrind BMX 2 is another addition to the Touchgrind series and follows in the similar footsteps as previous games.
Chosen by Apple as one of the top three best iPhone games of 2011, Touchgrind BMX was widely popular but has since been forgotten about until now. As the sequel, builds on top of its predecessor and features familiar environments all across the world. Whether its skyscrapers in Vertigo, mini ramps on the shady slopes of Montaña Alta, or the Grizzly Trail there’s plenty of content to be found in Touchgrind BMX 2.
“We have redesigned the Touchgrind brand from scratch and I am extremely pleased with the result. Everything from graphics to gaming experience have been meticulously improved.” says Marcus Dawson, CEO.
As expected players can fully customize their BMX and open crates to unlock additional bike parts and special bikes. There’s also different challenges for each map as well as leaderboads to compare your score. New in this sequel is a “Duels” mode to challenge friends and a Tournaments-style mode.
Personally speaking it’s a nice surprise to see Touchgrind BMX 2 and hopefully Illusion Labs will release more sequels to their other classic games. Unlike the original, Touchgrind BMX 2 unfortunately went with an in-app purchase payment method instead of a premium model. Touchgrind BMX 2 is available on the App Store for free, however, there are in-app purchases.
