Reviewing Chase HQ – Street Pursuit has been torture. It hurts my soul when an actually brilliantly crafted mobile game is hindered because of its constant advertisements. It hurts my soul even more when that devotion to ads renders that game unplayable because of constant, game-breaking at times, bombardment. On …
