In part, that's the reason we've been waiting so long for a mobile version of physics stunt bike racer series Trials.įinally arriving for iOS in spring 2014 in the shape of Trials Frontier, it's successfully managed to blend the best elements of the console version of the game with the intuitive controls, short sessions times and F2P monetisation that are now required on mobile platforms. Matching their expectations with what have to be platform-appropriate design, controls and business model takes time and dedication. It's particularly the case when you have a high fidelity experience and a highly committed and vocal fanbase. Knowing when to make the leap from console to mobile is always a difficult decision.
