City Cash Race drops you into a arcade challenge you can start in a couple of seconds. Think racing, car and retro & arcade — that is the shape of it. It works the same on desktop, tablet and phone, and your progress picks up where the game left it.

How to play City Cash Race
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 is wide rather than tall — fullscreen is worth it on a monitor, and on a phone the picture is much better sideways. There is no penalty for failing, so push a little harder than feels safe.
Controls
| Input | Action |
|---|---|
| Arrow keys / WASD | Steer, accelerate and brake |
| Spacebar | Handbrake or nitro boost |
| R | Reset the car after a crash |
On mobile: Tap and swipe on screen. Turn your phone sideways — this game is designed for landscape and fills a horizontal screen.
Why it is worth playing
Difficulty in City Cash Race comes from the game itself rather than from waiting, unlocking or paying, which is rarer than it should be. That is a rarer quality than it sounds.
