About

Riff Racer brings a fresh twist to music gaming. Not a rhythm game, but a challenging arcade racer where you race the song itself and score for how well you stay in Sync.
Action on track is synced to the audio - players literally have to race the music to stay in time and score points. Verses, choruses and drops become checkpoints, and the environment, colours and cars are styled to the genre of music you're playing.
