I had fun playing Tour de France 2018. Part of that comes from the fact
that I have played previous games in the franchise. I wish there were
better ways to increase and decrease speeds. I know we can lock in a
certain speed, but there are times I needed to quickly adjust speeds
quite frequently. Tour de France 2018 also allows us to just race
certain portions like the sprint. Let us be honest here the sprints are
the best part of these races.
The modes in Tour de France 2018 are Race, Pro Team, Pro Leader,
Challenge, Training, Editor, Options, Credits, and What's New. When we
Race in Tour de France 2018 we can go to Tours, Classes, or My Team.
There are plenty of options found within Tour de France 2018. We can
race at different difficulties and the nice voice explains what is
happening in the race.
Tour de France 2018 is more strategic than any other racing game I know.
Stamina is extremely important in Tour de France 2018. If you use all
your stamina too early you will watch everyone sprint right by you near
the end. You can even blow up your racer and wind up going really slow.
The screen gets kind of freaky when your racer is all blown up. I
learned to take it slow in Tour de France 2018 in the beginning. I also
learned how to rebuild stamina.
The spectators in Tour de France 2018 shouted a variety of things at me.
I think they were speaking French. Since I do not speak French it is not
something I can verify easily. If you know send in a comment on one of
our channels so we can learn. If you do a full race then you will need
to be patient. Tour de France 2018 can be very unforgiving if you make
stamina mistakes. Even on the easiest setting.
If you are not familiar with this game and its controls I highly suggest
you go through the training mode. It will teach you important things.
Even some of the less than intuitive controls. I really enjoyed the menu
screen music, and the presentation in Tour de France 2018. I hope this
franchise continues in the years to come. Tour de France 2018 helps me
respect athletes in this sport.
