About the game
What you do in a play session
Get ready to hit the gas with Joyride: Downtown, an exclusive expansion that injects even more adrenaline into your races! If you already love the vibe of Joyride, you'll go wild for the three new additions that are here to supercharge your games. How about taking the wheel of a taxi? Now you can! At each checkpoint you pass, you earn some cash that can be exchanged for super flexible effects, giving you that timely boost or messing with the competition. But stay sharp, because the competition is fiercer than ever. Want to cause some strategic chaos? Drop a 'Spike Strip' and watch your opponents sweat with shredded tires, limiting their options and paving the way for your victory. And to make everything even more unpredictable and fun, scatter trashcans around the track! They'll litter the board with surprise effects mid-race, turning each lap into a box of surprises. Joyride: Downtown is the extra dose of chaos and strategy you needed to make your races even more epic and full of twists!
