Mantis Burn Racing
Description
Mantis Burn Racing is a top-down racing with a single-player career as well as multiplayer races either through local split-screen or online. The single-player career consists of seven seasons. Each one consists of multiple races with different types of objectives. These need to be completed to collect a set amount of gears needed to unlock the final race of a season. Multiple types of cars can be acquired based on three categories: dune buggies, road racers and trucks and there are also three types of classes. Winning races is rewarded with experience and a currency. New cars can be bought and they usually become available at certain levels based on the total amount of experience.
The main car statistics are speed, acceleration, grip, suspension and boost. The car and boost colour can be customized. Controls are limited to acceleration and breaking. There are many obstacles on the tracks and it is possible to drift. The type of surface and elevation also plays a role. Cars do not have a damage system. While racing, a boost meter fills up gradually and when full a short speed boost can be activated. The game environments are the sun-scorched Sand Town and the asphalt city streets of New Shangri-la. There is a fixed and a dynamic camera angle available. There are eight types of races including accumulator (collect points), endurance, knockout, lap and sprint races, overtake, time trials etc. To keep receiving gears and to unlock all elements a top 3 usually needs to be reached. Players can also participate in weekly challenges.
There are many types of upgrades affecting the car's performance: boost, engine, gear box, suspension and tyres that are unlocked and can be used to alter a car's performance. Each car has a small amount of slots to fit them, but more become available after upgrading. From the selection of upgrades any one can be applied or combined. They can also be removed afterwards, but then they are lost.
