Sonic Drift — About this game
Sonic Drift puts Sonic, Tails, Amy and Eggman into compact kart races. Free Run gives a place to learn a course before the Chaos GP, while the drivers’ different handling and powers reward trying more than one. Accelerating constantly is not enough: brake before a sharp bend, steer into it and add a brief drift when you know the exit. Holding a drift too long risks a spin and lost time. Collect rings so a special power is available when useful, then look ahead at the course map instead of reacting only to the road directly in front of the kart.
