Learning the controls
The game is a lean racer. You lean the car left with A or the Left arrow and right with D or the Right arrow. That is all the input there is.
You race on world circuits, overtake rivals and collect coins on the way. Coins pay for upgrades, and boosts help you pass rivals and reach the podium.
Poki lists it as released in October 2019 and last updated in January 2021, so it is the oldest game here. It also has the most votes of the six on Poki, 724,127 at the time of checking.
Poki lists the game as released in October 2019 and updated in January 2021, with a rating of 4.4 from 724,127 votes. The developer is B10b.
The upgrade side is simple: coins collected during races pay for upgrades, and boosts are used to overtake. With only two steering inputs, the game is about timing and about how well you spend what you collect.
Input, one by one
Pointers from the bench
Keep your leans small and regular; with only two keys, steady timing is the whole skill.
Pick up coins when it does not put you off the line; upgrades come from them.
Save boosts for a moment when a rival is close.
Watch the next corner, not the car in front.
Upgrade between races to make the next circuit easier.
A fit if
Players who want a simple racer they can pick up in a minute.
Weak spots
Two controls mean limited depth.
The game was last updated in 2021, so it is older than the others here.
Poki may show ads before or around the game. That is Poki's setup, and it is outside this site.
B10b made the game. This site only describes it.
Next on the bench
More controls and a chase instead of a circuit.
A slower puzzle if racing is too fast.
