Gameplay short but fun

When compared to other games, Speed ​​Drifters Have gameplay which is similar to the series Mario Kart or Crash Team Racing. You will drive a car on a unique race track full of sharp turns. To get around the bend, you need to do drifting, aka turning while pressing the handbrake button on the right of the screen. If you do drifting success, you will get boost which increases your speed in no time.

Gameplay cores This is very easy for all players to understand. That way more players casual and want to play to kill time should be able to enjoy this game. But behind the simple mechanics, there are many techniques that can be learned for more serious and advanced players.

In the game, both players casual or seriously also have a place to play fairly and as you wish.

Speed ​​Drifters have two mode the main game, namely Speed ​​Mode and Item Mode, each with variants solo or team. In Speed ​​Mode, you will compete against other players on the track. Meanwhile, in Item Mode, you are still racing on the track, but along the track you will win items to stop the opponent ala Mario Kart or Crash Team Racing.

The tracks available in this game are also quite varied with different levels of difficulty. If you just want to pass the time, you can play on easier tracks. If you like a more challenging experience, you can play on more difficult tracks.

Some Missing Finishing Touches

Speed ​​Drifters has some additional content and features to keep you playing. In this game you can find Club and Couple features. In these two features, you can have unique interactions with your friends. Then there is the Rest Area which, although it looks attractive, looks empty and doesn’t have any exciting features, at least while I’m playing.

The three features above are additional features. It means you can still enjoy Speed ​​Drifters alone. Unfortunately there is one more feature that I think is quite annoying, namely music.

Music in a racing game is one of the elements that enhances the gaming experience. In games like like a series Need for Speedmusic rock, metal, or EDM is perfect for racing full of high adrenaline. In games like Mario Kart, you will get music that is upbeat or at least in accordance with the feel of the track. Temporary Speed ​​Drifters actually give mood which is not appropriate.

Speed ​​Drifters have a music collection consisting of several songs pop And rock that you’ve heard on the radio. Initially this music sounds normal when you are in the game’s main menu. It’s just that you will also listen to the song when playing.
Trust me, listen to the song I Won’t Go Home Without You from Maroon 5 when you’re racing at top speed is a strange experience.

Luckily this problem can be solved easily with updates which includes a new song. Let’s hope this game gets new songs that are suitable, whether it’s an original song or a popular song. While waiting, you can listen to songs from other devices to get a more optimal playing experience.

Conclusion
