Start for freeWhat to Expect
In Racing Simulator, 1 to 9 players control racing cars lined up on a track. All players simultaneously reveal a speed card to determine overtakes, gaps, and positions. The game simulates realistic challenges like tire management, pit stops, and weather conditions following F1 rules. This creates tactical decisions similar to those faced by real drivers.
Who Is This Game For?
Racing Simulator is a strategy-heavy game aimed at experienced players who enjoy complex racing simulations. With a playtime of about 90 minutes, it requires patience and strategic thinking. It includes a solo mode for single players seeking a realistic racing experience. Suitable from age 8, but better for those familiar with longer, tactical games.
How It Works
Players simultaneously select a speed card from identical decks. Positions are then recalculated based on speeds and overtaking possibilities. Pit stops, tire quality, and weather influence strategy and race dynamics. The system manages cars not assigned to players and simulates F1 events like accidents and penalties.
What Makes It Special
Designed by Denis Pierron, Racing Simulator combines simple mechanics with deep racing simulation. It belongs to the Sports: Auto Racing family and uses simultaneous action selection for realistic race decisions. Although it has no awards, it faithfully models real F1 rules.
