Wild Asphalt: dodge, squeeze past, floor it

About Wild Asphalt

It's the road out of the scrap city — the same world as Steel Flames — and nobody has looked after it in centuries. An endless survival run: speed climbs over time, nitro doubles your points but drinks oil, and the cans on the road refill the tank. Five dragons get in your way: Verdigris, the green one, sprints straight across, Gale runs in packs over the sand, Rust (the armored one) takes a whole lane and plods along inside it, Obsidian flies high and drops rocks, and the Ancient one roars from the roadside — that one never steps onto the road. Squeeze past an obstacle without hitting it for 250; with nitro on you plow through barrels, tires and rocks without losing a life, but wrecks and dragons stay dangerous. A crash costs a life and slows you down; you have three, and the miner's helmet (rare) adds one, up to five. Out of oil, the car stops. TOP 5 leaderboard on the site, with miles next to the score.

In Selminha's words

“I wanted the Steel Flames road from the driver's seat, foot down. No levels, no finish line: just cracked asphalt, the sunset and dragons crossing at the worst possible moment.”

How to play Wild Asphalt, and tips for a higher score

1. Steer to dodge: on a phone, the stick on the left; on a computer, the arrow keys or A and D; on a gamepad, the analog stick or d-pad.
2. Hold NITRO (the button on the right on a phone; Space, J, K, W or ↑ on a computer; A, X or RT on a gamepad) to speed up: it doubles your points and plows through barrels, tires and rocks with no life lost (+150), but it burns oil fast. Wrecks and dragons stay dangerous.
3. Squeeze past an obstacle without hitting it and score 250 ("CLOSE CALL!").
4. Grab the oil cans: +30 in the tank and +100 points. Oil drains over time; when it runs out the car stops and the run is over.
5. A crash costs 1 life and slows the car down (you're invulnerable for a few seconds). You have 3 lives. The rare miner's helmet gives +1 life (up to 5); with lives full it's worth 1,000 points.
6. The dragons: Verdigris (the green one) sprints across the road; Gale runs in packs; Rust takes a whole lane and plods along inside it; Obsidian drops rocks from the sky; the Ancient one roars from the roadside. P or Esc pauses; M toggles sound; F toggles full screen.

What's on the road

Barrels, tires and rocks

Hitting one costs 1 life. With nitro on, you plow through and score 150.

Truck wrecks

Take up almost a whole lane and can't be plowed through — not even with nitro.

Verdigris

A green four-legged dragon, the color of weathered copper; sprints across the road, side to side.

Gale

A lean, fast four-legged dragon; runs in packs over the sand and cuts across the road.

Rust

An armored four-legged dragon: it takes a whole lane (left, center or right) and plods along inside it.

Obsidian

Flies high and drops rocks on the road. A fallen rock is an obstacle like any other.

The Ancient one

A two-legged giant that roars from the roadside. All bark.

Controls on phone and computer

Computer

Phone: stick on the left steers, NITRO on the right · Computer: ← → or A D steer; Space, J, K, W or ↑ nitro (or click and hold) · P or Esc pauses · M sound · F full screen · Gamepad: analog stick or d-pad steers, A, X or RT nitro, Start pauses, Back sound.

Touch

Landscape and full screen on phones (landscape on iPad and desktop too). Stick on the left and a NITRO button on the right, the franchise standard; pause and sound are in the top right corner.

Points, oil and lives

Distance

Points for every stretch of road; double with nitro. Speed climbs automatically over time.

Close calls

Squeezing past an obstacle without hitting it: +250.

Plant oil

The bar at the top. It drains over time, faster with nitro; a can on the road gives +30 and +100 points. At zero, the car stops.

Lives

Three. A crash takes one and slows the car down. The rare miner's helmet adds +1, up to 5; with lives full it's worth 1,000 points.
