2 Player Battle Car Racing

2 Player Battle Car Racing is a race where the pickups matter as much as the driving. High speed is important, but the description stresses that the enhancers you collect along the way play a significant part. Grab the right one at the right time and a lost race can turn around.

There are seven of them. Bomb, Canon and Rocket are attacks aimed at the other car. Oil is left behind to send a chasing rival into a spin. Flash, Nitro and Shield are about you: a burst of speed, a boost and protection from incoming hits. Learning what each one does, and when it is worth using, is the real skill.

The tags point to two players, co-op and a city setting, so the natural way to play is side by side with a friend. Vitalitygames.com publishes it, and it suits anyone who likes kart-style weapons racing but wants it with cars and a human opponent.

1. Start a race against your friend.
2. Drive over the enhancers on the track.
3. Use attacks like the bomb or rocket on the rival car, or drop oil behind you.
4. Save the shield and nitro for when they matter and cross the line first.

Use oil when your rival is right behind you on a corner. It is the pickup that rewards being in front, so do not waste it when you are trailing.
