Twenty cars. Twenty circuits. One braking point. Who blinks first? Downforce is a top-down arcade racer for quick, fierce races. Line up on a full 20-car grid, draft down the straights, fire your boost and fight your way to the front, then take it all on again, backwards. TWENTY CIRCUITS, FIVE SETTINGS Parkland, forest, city streets, desert and coast, four circuits in each. Every one can be raced forward or in reverse, so there are forty layouts to learn. Fast sweepers, technical esses, a tight street course through the harbour and a long run along the cliffs. THE CHAMPIONSHIP • Eight cups of five circuits each, on Easy, Medium and Hard • A field of nineteen named drivers • Points every round, trophies for every podium, and the next cup opens when you finish in the top three • The later cups run the circuits in reverse MORE WAYS TO RACE • Race: up to 19 AI rivals over one to five laps • Elimination: the last car is out at the end of every lap • Duel: you against your rival, three laps • Endurance: ten to fifteen laps, and damage only mends slowly (opens after your first finished cup) • Time Trial: chase your ghost, and the gold, silver and bronze times for each circuit • Hot Seat: pass the phone between 2 to 4 drivers FEEL THE DRIVE • Two-thumb controls: slide to steer, hold to accelerate, flick up to boost • Drafting, tyre smoke, skid marks, sparks and collision damage • Five red lights, then lights out, and a podium for the top three COME BACK EVERY DAY • A new daily challenge with a coin reward, drawn from sixteen kinds • A weekly event to work through across the week • Keep your streak alive day after day • Optional reminder at 6pm, off unless you turn it on BUILD YOUR CAR Spend prize money in the Garage on engine, gearbox and tyre upgrades, then pick your livery colours and pattern. FAIR BY DESIGN No ads, no account, no tracking, and it plays fully offline. Time Trial, the Garage and the daily challenge are free, and so are the five circuits of the first cup. Every other circuit and Hard difficulty can be earned just by racing. A single optional purchase, Full Access, opens every circuit and Hard difficulty for single races and Time Trial straight away, and adds Hot Seat multiplayer. No subscription.
