Driver drops you into a arcade challenge you can start in a couple of seconds. The core of it is car. Everything runs client-side, so it starts fast even on a modest connection.

About Driver

drive, avoid the obstacles and do your best for rising that score UP! HAVE FUN!

How to play Driver

There is no tutorial to sit through — the game explains itself. On desktop the arrow keys / WASD do the moving; the full mapping is in the table below. It is built tall rather than wide — comfortable one-handed on a phone, centred and uncropped on a monitor. Expect the first attempt to be a write-off; that is normal here.

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 Driver comes from the game itself rather than from waiting, unlocking or paying, which is rarer than it should be. It earns the replay rather than demanding it.
