About

Pocket Lap started as a group chat where four friends kept sending each other screenshots of the games they were stuck on. At some point we realized we were writing mini-reviews anyway, so we made a site out of it. Nothing fancy — just people who like tapping and steering on a small screen.,Everything here is played by an actual person, not pulled from a press kit. If a game runs badly on an older phone, we say so. If the controls feel mushy after fifteen minutes, that goes in the review too. We care about how a game holds up over days, not the first flashy trailer.,We lean toward racing, arcade and pick-up-and-play stuff, but we cover RPGs, strategy and adventure games when something grabs us. A game earns a spot in the catalog only after someone on the team has actually finished a good chunk of it.,No sponsors decide our scores. We run this in our spare time and keep it small on purpose, so we can be picky about what gets written up.

Klara Novák — Klara is a UX designer from Prague who has been chasing high scores since her first flip phone. She handles most of the racing and arcade coverage and keeps the rest of us on deadline.
