Moto Mania is a ragdoll physics-based dirtbike game for the iPhone and iPod Touch, and it follows in the footsteps of some of the classic side-scrolling dirtbike stunt games of the past, like Excite Bike for the original Nintendo Entertainment System. Moto Mania has an advantage over the older games, however: thanks to the built-in accelerometer of these iDevices, it’s possible to control the tilt of the bike by simply tilting the device to the left or right. This makes game play incredibly intuitive. Intuitiveness of play aside, Moto Mania is certainly a challenge. The object of the game is to navigate your bike over ramps and obstacles to complete the course in the shortest amount of the time possible. It really does feel like it is “your” bike because, at the start of play, you can customize the cycle by picking out the color of the bike’s finish and the style of the wheels. It’s a simple gimmick, to be sure, but it does help along the illusion that the bike is yours, and may get you feeling a bit more invested in getting it safely from one side of the course to the other.
