Why you can trust 12DOVE
Welcome to the world’s first obscene wealth simulator. Sure, one in every two driving games on the market involves collecting cash, but nothing else sees you lavish a sickeningly huge amount of money on yourself like this driving semi-MMO. It’s a tale of amassing massive riches during a privileged, unemployed life onthe beautiful Hawaiian island ofOahu, then spending all your said riches on cars. Endless numbers of super-expensive cars.
By way of example, here’s an average day in our character’s life. First thing in the morning, wewander down to the cavernous garage and idly choose which one of the eight incredibly expensive cars there we would like to take out today. A Ford GT chosen, we head off to the middle of nowhere, where a mysterious benefactor inexplicably pays me $20,000 to perform three laps of a circuit encompassing busy public roads.
