For many, the enjoyment and study of cars and how they work is an incredible hobby. There are so many events dedicated to the love of cars and car culture, and the infectious excitement of their communities is truly something to behold.
With so many of those events being canceled or postponed in the past few years, those same fans have turned to video games to get their car kicks. After the Gran Turismos and the Forzas, there are just a few other car games on CrazyGames.com worth your precious time.
One of those games is special, however, because it is completely free, and runs right in your web browser. That game is called Drift Hunters, and these are a few of the things that make it awesome.
Physics-Based Drifting
Drift Hunters’ primary mechanic is pulling off awesome drifts on intricate tracks to stack up points. In most games, drifting would be trivial and unrewarding, but Drift Hunters is built differently.
The game uses a realistic physics-based drifting system that requires some time to learn and perfect. You’ll undoubtedly crash into walls your first few times out, but the reward for sticking with it and learning how to truly drift is the satisfaction of gaining a new skill.
This isn’t some arcade racer, this is a realistic drifting simulator, and few other car games are this gratifying.
Upgradeable Cars
There are over 25 cars to learn and hone your craft in. Each of these cars is based on a real-life sports car, which is then rendered in great detail.
On the track, each car has unique traits that make them handle differently from each other, which will in turn affect how you need to maneuver to drift.
You aren’t stuck with the stock car once it has been unlocked though. All of the cars in Drift Hunters can be upgraded with various parts to improve their performance, and customized by changing their paintjob.
Awesome Tracks
Take your upgraded, customized cars out on 10 different tracks that all feature unique locations and interesting layouts.
There are tight turns, straightaways for hitting the gas, and sights to see as you rip down the street.
What’s more, due to the physics-based drifting system that makes each car handle differently, taking a new car out on a track you think you know like the back of your hand is a completely different experience, and will need to be learned again for this new car.
No Download Required
Despite the content and features of Drift Hunters, the game doesn’t require any overhead on your PC. There is nothing to download and it requires minimal resources to run well, no need for a beefy graphics card.
Most games of this style and quality would take up at least several gigs of hard drive space, but Drift Hunters runs entirely within your browser thanks to its foundations on the Unity engine. The entire world of Drift Hunters in all of its 3D glory is easily accessible by everyone, at all times.
Once you’ve mastered Drift Hunters, you’ll want to show off your skills in the brand new game in the series, the Drifted.com exclusive Drift Hunters MAX.
