— The basics

What is Slime Race?

Slime Race is a sideways-racing game where you control a small slime character racing other slimes across a chaotic track. Tap or press to jump, slide and squeeze through gaps. First to the finish wins the race; placing in the top three earns coins for upgrades.

Slime Race's squishy physics give it a personality most racing games lack. Your slime stretches when it jumps, compresses when it lands, and shoves other slimes out of the way on close turns. Reading the track and committing to a clean racing line — instead of bumping into rivals — is the difference between podium finishes and middle-of-the-pack runs.
