Combat Cars is a racing game in which you not only compete with other cars, trying to outrun them, but also use all kinds of weapons and gadgets to damage your opponents. In the beginning of the game, you can choose one of the eight available characters. Each character has his/her own strengths and weaknesses (speed, car handling, etc.), as well as unique weapons. One has a homing missile, another a machine gun, and still others have oil slicks, glue globs, land mines, smoke clouds and even boosters which hurtle you down the track at an outrageous speed. There are 24 different tracks available in the game. You must complete them in a linear fashion, and once you run out of time, the game is over.

As with most racers, you can upgrade your car at the end of every race in the trackside shop. You can amp up your acceleration, brakes, top speed, and even the uses of your weapon. All of this costs money, of course. Money that can be earned in quite a few ways. There are 4 laps to every race, and every time you complete a lap you earn a certain amount of money depending on your ranking. You also get money for the time left on the clock at the end of the race and for the number of uses left on your weapon. About the time – when you finish a lap you gain some time on the clock, which is always counting down. (duh) If you run out of time you're fried.

Combat Cars combines racing with fighting, so if you're a fan of either or both then this is a game worth looking into. If you can't win the race by pure speed alone then use any of the extra abilities your vehicle comes with to ram your opponents off the road so you can claim first place!
