Critical reception
LightBike
MacWorld gave LightBike a rating of 4/5 stars, writing "Pankaku has done a great job with LightBike and for £1.79 on the App Store, there's no better way to kill 10 minutes. (Note that a free lite version is available, though only with a single-player mode.) With room to grow, it'll be interesting to see what happens in the next few updates and what the company chooses to add. " SlideToPlay gave the game a rating of 2 out of 4, concluding "LightBike doesn't do enough to keep you interested over the long term."
LightBike 2
148Apps gave LightBike 2 3.5/5 stars, writing "While Light Bike 2 does a good job of mimicking a TRON light cycle battle, it doesn't build a strong enough game around that experience to encourage prolonged play. Network issues also plague the game." KnowyourMobile wrote "After that, all we can hope is that Disney's lawyers don't come down on LightBike 2 once Tron: Legacy is ready for release on the iPhone, but if we were the developer we wouldn't be holding our breath. This game isn't likely to survive the movie marketing, so if it sounds appealing, don't dally". maclife listed the game in an article entitled The 7 Best TRON Games for iOS and Mac, commenting "LightBike 2's instructions, settings, and eye candy are minimal, but what really makes the game glow is its choice of arenas. Okay, there are only two choices: one is a standard grid, but the second features multiple grids at different heights, allowing for jumps to lower platforms and desperate escapes up ramps. It's completely baffling for human and AI opponents alike, and dizzying fun for Tron fans." Examiner wrote "As the game is a free app, iPhone owners should download and try the application for themselves. Some may not be bothered by the music and others may despise the controls. Nonetheless, LightBike 2 is a great free game for TRON fans".
