Slotcar AR

About this game

Nearly everybody has played with a Carrera Slotcar Racing Toy in his or her childhood. This app is about to make the users relive their childhood memories by bringing a slotcar game to the smart phone using Augmented Reality. In the Slotcar AR application it is possible to drive with a slotcar on predefined or custom build tracks. Instead of pushing the button of a hand-held controller to accelerate, the app uses the touchscreen. Touching the screen accelerates the slotcar, after releasing the screen the slotcar keeps gliding through the track and decelerates with the friction. The goal is to drive around the track as fast as possible.

In the new campaign mode you can race against an opponent that sets the target time. If you beat him, the next track is unlocked. After finishing a whole campaign, a new car is unlocked and can be selected in the car park. In total there are 8 different car to chose from in the car park, but some of them have to be unlocked first.

You can also build your own track, record a lap and share it with the community. Other players can then try to beat the creators lap time and stand on top of the leaderboard.

The augmented reality feature of this game is only available on supported devices and requires ARCore to be installed on the phone!

Have fun at racing!

Ratings and reviews

The menu text is too big and unable to see all the menu items on each screen...text covers the race screen during the race...no option to close track in editor when really close to start item....no option to reduce text size in settings...only brake in settings nothing else.

Entering a name for building an own track doesn't work, so you can't create a track of your own. Other than that it's a nice game.

not a bad game you come off the track way to easy real slot cars dont do that there is a full size track in the next town over that race on and I stay on
