Drift CarX Racing APK for Android

Boost your way to the front of the track

Drift CarX Racing is a free racing game that emphasizes drifts and boosts as its core mechanic. The aim is to try and boost your way ahead of your rival to win money for your next set of vehicle upgrades. As the player, your job is to use two buttons: Drift and Boost.

Those hoping for a traditional racing game like Need for Speed or Asphalt 9: Legends may be surprised by Drift CarX Racing. This is a title that opts for its own pared-down driving system, creating an unusual gaming experience.

Drive with two buttons

Drift CarX Racing has a novel control system. Steering, acceleration and brakes are all handled automatically. When you hold down Drift, a bar will appear. Let go at the right time, and your car will get a burst of speed. Boost, active only at certain points, is self-explanatory.

Narrative-driven racing

The game makes heavy use of narrative. An animated hostess will teach you the basics over the course of the practice tracks. After a certain point, the character of a rival racer is introduced for you to compete against. By earning points, you can trade in your practice car for upgraded models.

Watch out for the sexy hostess

While Drift CarX Racing is rated as an all-ages game, bear in mind that the hostess is a highly sexualized character. She wears a skimpy outfit and is animated so that her breasts bounce, even when she stands still.

An oddity with mixed results

The results of Drift CarX Racing's unusual gameplay are mixed. It certainly has novelty value, although placing all control in two buttons means that the gameplay is very simple. The heavy amount of tutorial features, with translated dialogue in broken English, may also be off-putting for some. That said, this game still stands out from other racing games.
