Brands Delux(e) is a top-down scrolling racing game where you drive as long as possible while overtaking cars. You can steer left or right and switch between low and high gear – but you only score in high gear. Occasionally, you'll race at night, with only your headlights revealing the road and other cars. Some road sections narrow unexpectedly, preceded by a warning sign. Crashing into another car costs one of four lives, and you can choose from four difficulty levels, with one being the hardest.
