## In short

Apex Drift Garage is a 3D car drift simulator set in a night city. Pick Simulator, Drift or Arcade mode, drive with WASD, pull the handbrake with the space bar and slide through the corners: every drift adds points that turn into cash. Spend the cash in the garage to repaint the car, change the windows, wheels, brake calipers, neon and tire smoke, and adjust the suspension. A minimap, a fuel gauge and city traffic come with four camera views, including one from inside the car.

**How to control it:** Drive with W A S D. Hold Space for the handbrake while you steer to slide the car. F fires the boost, G switches slow motion on, T builds a ramp, C changes the camera, H is the horn, R resets the car, I starts or stops the engine, L and K switch the low and high beams, Q and E are the indicators, Z the hazard lights and Esc shows or hides the help panel. The three buttons at the top of the screen switch between Simulator, Drift and Arcade.

**Apex Drift Garage** is an online car drift simulator that runs in your browser. You drive a rear-drive coupe through a night city, pull the handbrake to throw the car sideways and watch a drift counter turn into cash. Three driving modes (Simulator, Drift and Arcade) change how the car feels, and a garage lets you spend the cash on paint, wheels, neon and more. Press Play Now, enter a nickname once and you are on the road.

## How to play

1. Enter a nickname (5 to 10 characters). The game asks only once.
2. Press **Play Now** . You start in the city.
3. Accelerate with **W** and steer with **A** and **D** .
4. Hold **Space** (the handbrake) while you steer to break the rear tires loose and slide.
5. Watch the **Drift** counter at the top of the screen. The longer and bigger the slide, the more points it shows, and the points turn into cash.
6. Go back to the menu, open the **Garage** and spend the cash.

## The three driving modes

The buttons at the top of the screen switch the mode while you drive: **Simulator** , **Drift** and **Arcade** . Start in Drift mode to see the points counter and earn cash, then try Simulator and Arcade to find the handling you like.

## The garage

The garage has seven tabs: **Car color** , **Window color** , **Wheel color** , **Neon color** , **Smoke color** , **Caliper color** and **Suspension** . A new paint color costs 500 in-game dollars (you start with 1,000), and the car changes color on screen before you buy. The Neon color and Smoke color tabs let you pick the neon glow and the color of the tire smoke.
