Recent Dark Pattern Reviews

Daily Rewards reported on Apr 26, 2024
Has a daily rewards ladder system.
Grinding reported on Apr 26, 2024
A given that it is a racing game
Premium Currency reported on Apr 26, 2024
Gold coins
Invested / Endowed Value reported on Apr 26, 2024
Yes, given that it's a racing game, buying and winning new cars is basically a must, as such, you will tend to feel more invested in it and more unlikely to dispose all the cars you have obtained.
Artificial Scarcity reported on Apr 26, 2024
Limited time cars that can be obtained from the gacha system.
Recurring Fee reported on Apr 26, 2024
Has a subscription system that rewards players with a rental supercar as of recent update.
Gambling / Loot Boxes reported on Apr 26, 2024
Gacha system has extremely terrible odds when it comes to getting a single car at all. And the rewards that you get for spending 250-500 gold coins sometimes doesn't justify the price, given it requires a premium currency to even have a chance at winning a car. And the resale value of duplicate cars that you've owned are horrendously low.
Waste Aversion reported on Apr 26, 2024
Can be easily surpassed by winning cars from the gacha.
Anchoring Tricks reported on Apr 26, 2024
Yes.
Fear of Missing Out reported on Apr 26, 2024
Does leave you having FOMO when it comes to limited time cars that you couldn't obtain due to lack of time, currency, or both.
