Typically, when we talk about an app for Android devices that has to do with racing, we are talking about a racing game. This time out we are talking about a racing game, but it is very different from the others we have seen. Anki Drive launched recently for Android and it combines virtual racing with real world racing.

To play Anki Drive, you have to purchase an Anki Drive Starter Kit that includes two cars, a racetrack, fast charger, and tire cleaner. Anki Drive is described as part toy, part video game. We heard the game was coming to Android back in September.

It’s designed to be played on the floor with robotic cars that are controlled via an app on a smartphone. The game has two modes- battle mode and race mode. In battle mode, the first car to score a set number of takeouts wins. In racing mode, the first to cross the finish line wins.

Each of the cars has to be controlled by its own Android device if multiple people want to race. If two or more Android devices aren’t available, the cars can drive themselves. The game is supported with a handful of Android devices right now including the Nexus 5, Samsung Galaxy S4, Samsung Galaxy S5, Samsung Note 3, Samsung Note 4, Samsung Note 10.1 (2014 Edition). Additional devices will be supported in the future.
