About

Pocket Lap started as a group chat where three friends kept arguing about which mobile racer had the best handling. The arguments got long enough that we decided to turn them into something useful for other people who love playing on the go.

We focus on racing and arcade games because that's what we actually enjoy, but we don't ignore good RPGs, strategy, or adventure games when they cross our screens. If a game grabs our attention and holds it through a commute, it probably deserves a mention.

Every title we cover gets real playtime. We don't run a review off a trailer or a press kit. Someone on the team installs the game, plays it for days, and only then do we sit down to write about what works and what doesn't.

The site stays independent. Nobody pays us to like a game, and if something is dull or broken we'll say so plainly.
