KartRider: Drift is an arcade-style racing game where you control a kart on a track and have to get to the finish line. You can choose between two modes, the standard mode and the drift mode. In the standard mode, you have to collect the required amount of speed boosts to reach the finish line. In the drift mode, you can drift on the track and use the different types of drift pads to gain more speed. The more speed you get, the more points you get.

The kart you control is made of different parts. You can customize the kart by changing the color of the body, the color of the tires, the wheels, the headlights, the headlights, the body, and the paint. You can also change the color of the kart wheel and tire rims.
