Explosive Arcade Mayhem on the Track

Detonation Racing drags you into a brash, chaotic universe where hitting the turbo and blowing stuff up are inseparable. The game is brash, noisy and unapologetically dumb; you can race through single-playerepisodes or brawl against other live or local players with cars that react to poorly judged mistakes and reward the bold.

What You’re Picking Up

Made by Electric Square, the game launched as an Apple Arcade exclusive and was designed for mobile/Apple devices with crossplay between phone, TV and Mac. The game was released for mobile in early 2020s-yet was also launched as a full-sized game, released in episodes, with strange characters who were drivers, and turned each circuit into a game-show style filled with traps and obstacles that players had to navigate on foot.

How Gameplay Unfolds

You aren’t just racing. You are instigating cascading effects. The races can be filled with bombs, cranes, buildings or other structures falling down or time bombs to explode moments after you pass as you play with proxy bombs and general chaos on the track or cars as a strike meter builds up as you race and drift. You press L2 for various ‘horrible’ attacks when the meter is full. The campaign is an ongoing series of ‘episodes’ (like TV show season) each with gameplay objectives and unlocks to encourage playing of the smarter and more fowl, respectively, playstyles. The game is very accessible/arcadey; on phones, cars will often rush along without you and you merely direct your actions.

Standout Mechanics

• Action tracks that blow up, break in the player’s hand, what makes the race change through a round.
• a charge based strike system for strategic sabotage, big plays.
• Hosts and drivers with personality who sell the experience as if it were a make believe game show.
• Personalizaión and advance over stars and rewards perepisode.
• Locally and online via any of the twin nubs, which support cross-Apple service cross-compatibility.

Why You Might Like It

If you are after quick bursts of frenetic racing where success favors aggression, then this comfortably fulfills that craving. It is flexible enough for light weekday playing, whilst sufficiently deep for repeated good efforts and better run completion. The look is a little too cartoonish, but the explosions are more playful than gory. Being based on touch controls and a gamepad means you can indulge on your mobile phone before continuing on a console without re-learning control schemes. And it’s free-to-play free, when played via its original service, so you can progress through with action alone.

Where You’ll Play It

• Solo campaign sessions where you try to accomplish the episode’s objectives and gather stars.
• Quick local multiplayer on the same device or over local network with friends.
• Online battles for players craving unpredictable live opponents.
• In some party environments, random track tricks lead to hilarious and unpredictable races.

Closing Notes

Detonation Racing is not aiming to be a true-to-life sim. It is looking for excitement on demand, which it generally provides. A couple of players experienced a little turbulence on an enlarged display as well as surprising degrees of hitching at times while firing what becomes a fairly frantic number of explosions, but the playing cycle-drive, get charged, burster, and start again-will keep you absorbed. If you enjoy racing on a racer with a manic honk and can forgive some moderately primitive visuals if the screen becomes a little racy, this isn’t a bad place to start.
