Horizon Chase is a racing game developed by Brazilian studio, Aquiris. Originally made for iOS and Android devices as Horizon Chase - World Tour, it serves as a Spiritual Successor to the old SNES game, Top Gear,note To the extent where they even got the original composer, Barry Leitch, to do the soundtrack for this game. which was shown to be very popular with the Brazilians. Boasting a unique retro aesthetic inspired by old 2-D 16-bit games (namely Sega's, especially in regards to the soundtrack), gameplay consists of the player travelling around the world competing in racing tournaments, though with its own unique twists: First, fuel pickups are dotted around the course and can be picked up to refuel the tank. If your tank runs out, you lose. Winning a race with some gas left over will have it be added to the total point count. Second, the player can also pick up tokens dotted around the course. Collecting them all as well as coming in first will grant the player a "Super Trophy" and contribute to unlocking extra events and vehicles. These reappear in Tournament mode, though collecting them all will grant the player a nitro boost instead. Speaking of nitro boosts, these are also present on the course to give your car a boost of speed. There are also upgrade races that can be played to win upgrades for whatever cars you've got. Last, weather effects and track types, such as rain and icy roads, can also interfere with handling.There are also other modes such as Tournament mode and an Endurance mode that sees racers race on all the race tracks in the game.An Updated Re-release, Horizon Chase Turbo, was released in 2018, for the PlayStation 4, the Xbox One, the Nintendo Switch and PC via Steam, with a physical Limited Special Collector's Ultimate Edition-only port for the PlayStation Vita in 2021. This version features enhanced graphics, more cars and tracks as well as local and online co-op modes. An extra mode, called "Playground", was since added, featuring themed races with unique conditionsnote These conditions include things like racing with no HUD, or changing weather and even extra skins for certain events. It would eventually be replaced with an "Adventures" mode that has you clearing a series of challenges with a certain car to unlock unique skins for them. An expansion named Senna Forever was also released on October 20th 2021, focusing on Brazilian Formula One racer Ayrton Senna and his career throughout the ages. A proper sequel, Horizon Chase 2, was released in September of 2022 exclusively on Apple Arcade, with a release to other platforms expected sometime in 2023. | |

| Horizon Chase (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae | comment |
Awesome, but Impractical: Cars with high top speed might be cool, but they also have terrible fuel usage and mediocre handling, meaning that they just aren't worth using on the more technical circuits. | |

Boring, but Practical | |
| Horizon Chase (Video Game) / int_39b8d3d6 | comment |
Boring, but Practical: Cars with good Handling are not exactly fast, but when you're facing courses with some really nasty sharp turns that might come one after another without a break they're basically your best friends. In the Senna Forever expansion, the Special Fuel strategy (gives you more fuel to work with) isn't as fancy as the Enhanced Tires (improved handling with less fuel as a drawback) or Advanced Aerodynamics (higher speed) ones, but it will most likely be your most used strategy throughout the campaign, especially when dealing with Senna Marks that require you to avoid fuel on certain laps. The extra nitrous doesn't hurt much, either. | |

Magikarp Power: The Gentleman, an old-timey car that looks like something your typical Quintessential British Gentleman would drive. Has mediocre acceleration, but give it time and its high top speed and good handling will allow it to dominate the road. Just try not to crash... | |

Fauxrrari: The cars are this, with all of them based on a number of real world sports and supercars, as well as a few shout outs (see the entry below). A rather literal example of this trope could be seen with the Cavalli team in Senna Forever, who are basically Ferrari in all but name. | |

Remixed Level: The Summer Vibes DLC features remixed versions of levels previously seen in the main World Tour, all in a Palmtree Panic style. Same goes with the Playground events, all of which remix existing levels in various ways (examples include setting it at daytime as opposed to night, or having it in mirror mode). | |

Shout-Out | |
| Horizon Chase (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: A good few cars are references to more famous ones: The Ladybug is probably Herbie's long-lost cousin. The Loveride looks an awful like Christine, which probably has some rather dire repercussions... The Royal, aside from being a James Bond car, also has a skin that makes it into a four-wheeled version of Kaneda's bike. The Explorer is pretty much the DeLoran with the Serial Numbers Filed Off. The Deja Vu looks like it came straight out of Initial D, only missing the Fujiwara Tofu decals. The Madbot is pretty much Bayformers Bumblebee, complete with quotes from the films. The Nano looks like something Mr. Bean would drive. The Walker-X is pretty much like something out of 2 Fast 2 Furious. The Night Rider is pretty much the Batmobile In Name Only. It also has a Blue Falcon livery option. The Breeze, introduced in the Summer Vibes DLC, is basically the car from OutRun. Its alternate skins also reference Miami Vice, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Modern Family, Thelma & Louise and Orange Is the New Black. One of the music tracks in the game is a remix of one in Top Gear (the 1992 video game, not the TV show). No coincidence, since both games were composed by Barry Leitch. | |

Writing Around Trademarks | |
| Horizon Chase (Video Game) / int_d4c98786 | comment |
Writing Around Trademarks: Many of the racing teams in Senna Forever have been given different names to avoid copyright issues with the real-life F1 teams they're based on. For instance, McLaren becomes "McKeena", Ferrari becomes "Cavalli" as mentioned above, and so on. Logos are also rendered in simplified shapes for similar reasons. | |

Creator Provincialism | |
| Horizon Chase (Video Game) / int_d68c925d | comment |
Creator Provincialism: Since the developers of the game are from Brazil, it's not really surprising that there would be levels set there. One of the tracks there is even based on the real life Interlagos circuit that hosts the Formula 1 Brazilian Grand Prix. This actually got invoked to hell and back with the "Porto Alegre" update, which added in two race tracks based on the devs' hometown, as well as the Minuano car that you can unlock there, which is named after the cold wind that blows over the pampas (not without reason, as it's one of the best cars in the early game), has two paint jobs that make reference to Internacionalnote red and white and Grêmionote sky blue and black with white piping (the two main soccer teams in Porto Alegre) and, if the language is set to Portuguese, its driver speaks with a Rio Grande do Sul accent, the car itself modelled after the "Miura MTS", a rare sports car from a small company that was once based in Porto Alegre from 1976-1992. Also, the track "Nightfall in Porto Alegre" (originally the title of a song from Engenheiros do Hawaii, one of the best-known rock bands from the city) is shaped like a mate gourd with straw. Going one step further, the music that plays on the "Guaiba Sunset" track is a synthwave arrangement of "Deu pra Ti" (I'm Through With You) by regional duo Kleiton & Kledir, a popular Brazilian song about going to Porto Alegre. And again with Senna Forever, which focuses on the Brazilian racer Ayrton Senna, widely regarded as a legend in his home country. | |
