Driving your favorite car, rush along the tropical beach avoiding obstacles. Collect coins and buy new cars. Remember the pleasant moments of summer vacation!
How to play Beach Drive
There is very little to learn before your first run. You will want a keyboard for this one — the arrow keys / WASD carry most of it, and the table below has the rest. The game runs in portrait, so on a phone you can play one-handed, and on desktop it stays centred rather than stretched out of shape. There is no penalty for failing, so push a little harder than feels safe.
Controls
| Input | Action |
|---|---|
| Arrow keys / WASD | Drive and steer |
| Spacebar | Brake |
On mobile: Tap and swipe directly on the screen. The game is built for portrait, so you can play one-handed without rotating your phone.
Why it is worth playing
Difficulty in Beach Drive comes from the game itself rather than from waiting, unlocking or paying, which is rarer than it should be. Nothing about it assumes you have played it before.
