Synth Cycles

Synth Cycles

Take a deep breath, turn the ignition key of your drift car and off you go! In the local multiplayer game Synth Cycles, only the strongest (and coolest) survive. Eliminate the opposing drivers with your drifts and win the round in a TRON inspired world. Your goal is to win the most rounds to become the ultimate winner.
And what's the most fun thing about cars? That's right - drifting. Drifts can be used both defensively and offensively to prevent damage on your car and maximize damage on other cars. The intuitive controls and handcrafted arenas create a unique last-car-standing gaming experience.
So what are you waiting for? Grab your handbrake and leave your competition in the dust!
