They came to BAMBOO APPS with an idea of a mobile game for kids, simulating the vehicle performance in a very realistic way and keeping all the brand elements of ŠKODA cars visual. It was a great challenge for our team and we do believe that we delivered a complex product with high level of functional characteristics and unique design", - says the Head of Mobile Development Department Igor Ponikarchik.

So the kid may easily repeat them and earn coins if done correctly.
