I'm grew up in Hong Kong and still lives there. All I say is that, in terms of the road itself, the accuracy is spot on, EXCEPT the width. They haven't just made each lane wider but really adding them. For example, at 2:35 the highway narrows to 2 lanes at this point. Also this highway in real life has more ramps that leads to tunnels going off Hong Kong Island. But since this game solely focus on Hong Kong Island, those split roads are removed. This is why all those lane guidance sounds off at times telling you stay left or right when the road simply has nowhere to go off to in the game. The other thing is that in Hong Kong, there a lot of central dividers and the traffic lights are at the middle of the road to split on coming traffic. The game developers simply removed them for playability. By the way the solar crown race track is a Jockey race ground in real life.

I lived in the Belchers (Sharps HQ) up until last year. In real life the mall extends to about 6 floors after which the structure fades away into an apartment complex with an entrance next to the University further up the hill. The details are SPOT ON. The MTR metro stations are missing but everything else, the signage, the lights on the floor, the rock formations in the surrounding area are all exactly the same. It's extremely strange to drive around these areas without having the shops/stores/restaurants as they are in real life. But with my familiarity of HK island, I can say that 90% of the map is exactly as it is in real life. Even the rural beach areas like Shek'O. Its truly a shame that they didn't model the Kowloon side of things because that area is pure chaos, but I guess that would've pushed development for another few years, so take what you get!

It wouldn't even be that hard on Android (no idea about iOS). This is called a "mock location provider" and it's fairly basic stuff. However, the difficult part would be to: 1) retrieve the vehicle's position from the running game, and 2) translate the position from whatever coordinate system the game uses, into Earth's latitude and longitude coordinates, so that the mock location shows up in the correct place of IRL Hong Kong Island
