Spin Off! app for iPhone and iPad

Spin Off! is a great new take on a schooldays favourite. Its a turn-based strategy racer, traditionally played on graph paper but now even more exciting on a Retina screen.

Take it in turns to accelerate or decelerate your car horizontally or vertically but only by one square at a time. Look ahead, because if you take a turn too fast youll Spin Off! This leads to an amazing representation of real world driving skills but on graph paper.

* DRAW YOUR OWN CIRCUITS *
Use the built-in tools to draw a track on the digital version of a sheet of graph paper. Make it look like a favourite racing circuit or just something out of your imagination.

* RACE AGAINST FRIENDS OR BOTS *
Choose to race with up to two other competitors. They can be any combination of humans or robots. Careful, with the bots though; there are two levels of AI and each gets better as it learns how you play the game.

* PIMP YOUR CAR WITH EXTRA BOOSTS AND BRAKES *
If youve won enough points (theyre called Victory Miles) from previous races you can spend them on buying upgrades to help with the next race.

* RACE WITH VECTORS *
Tell your math masters that youve found a great game that teaches you about vectors. That way, they might let you skip algebra and play SpinOff! instead.
