Gameplay Overview

When you first load up the game, you’ll be able to choose from three vehicle options. Two of these are free, while you can buy the last option amongst the three using Robux. If you’re driving a car, your primary goal is to collect as much coin as possible while avoiding trucks that’ll try to run into you. So, drive in such a way that you can survive the longest and earn a substantial amount of coin. On the other hand, if you’re playing a truck driver, your main objective is to crash into as many cars as possible. The more cars you hit, the greater your coin earning potential. The entire arena comprises of normal roads, ramps, and water if you drive off the edge.

Controls

Here are all of the game’s controls:

  • WASD: For movement
  • Hold Right Click: Turn camera
  • Shift: Speed boost while driving
  • Spacebar: Apply handbrake
  • R: Flip
  • E: Interact

Fuel

You can’t drive around perpetually if you run out of fuel. You can see the fuel gauge appear in blue in the lower part of the screen. It will continue to drop as you keep driving around. However, there are several blue colored fuel jars spread out across the arena. You can go around collecting them to replenish your fuel gauge.

Crates

Crates will enable you to claim better vehicles. As you play and accumulate gold coins, you can use these to purchase the crates before a round begins. Every crate has the chance to reward you with one vehicle from several possible options. The cheapest crate starts at just 50 Gold Coins. However, if you’re looking for the best cars, you’d likely want to open the Special Crate, priced at 1000 coins. Keep in mind that if you lack the coins, you can also unlock each crate using Robux. The best crate, dubbed the Super Car Crate , doesn’t unlock with coins. Instead, you have to spend 58 Robux each time you want to open this one.

Shop

On the left hand side of the screen is the Shop section, which you can open to buy a variety of in-game items. For instance, you can spend Robux to purchase a Longer Boost, which will help your car nitrous last a bit longer. Check out all of the items and decide which of them you need to get that extra kick when going off against opponents. You can also get some of these items for free when you redeem active codes in Cars Vs Trucks.
