Reality Drift

Reality Drift chucks you into a series of odd, otherworldly tracks where you’re racing to deliver packages to smug godlike creatures who couldn’t care less about you. After every race you pick your next track from three options, each one tied to different upgrades, so you’re always weighing up where to go next based on your build.

Some missions throw a deckbuilding twist into the mix, giving you cards with effects that trigger as they’re drawn. Between upgrading your core stats and adding new cards to your deck, you’re constantly shaping how your car handles and how you race. Go all in on ACCEL and MAX SPEED, or build around GRIP so you barely need to brake, it’s up to you. The catch is you’ve only got a few seconds to decide before the race carries on without you.

There’s a good handful of extra powerups too, like BOOST, SHIELD, ANTIGRAV and REGEN BRAKING, and the AI racers are playing by the same rules, picking their own upgrades as they go. Across 26 unlockable missions you’ll need to out drive and out think everyone else, and once you’ve won them all, New Game+ ramps up the difficulty for anyone who fancies a proper challenge.
