I&#8217;ve tested the game for a while on my Windows workstation, through <strong>Steam<\/strong>&#8216;s platform. It&#8217;s an very original idea,\u00a0featuring a gameplay half way between casual gaming and simulation. The PC version is played using only your keyboard and an isometric view that makes the game a unique experience.<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ll be able to choose from a six car garage and some customization options. Be aware, you won&#8217;t have the huge range of options you have in <strong>Need for Speed<\/strong>. It&#8217;s all about changing the car color or graphics, using\u00a0flags or other simple geometric elements. You&#8217;ll start with a Toyota AE86 so the chances are that you won&#8217;t feel the need for other cars.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Absolute Drift<\/strong> features different play modes, but they share a common element. You drive your car in white tinted minimalistic environments, where the white background will become the canvas where you are going to paint &#8211; litterally &#8211; your trajectories. The\u00a0driving&#8217;s phisics are developed with accuracy, but the handling is nearer to 4&#215;4 then to a RWD car. Be carefull, the control is far from easy and this guarantees the games&#8217; longevity. Besides classic clipping points &#8211; marked by white and red poles &#8211; you&#8217;ll have the chance to score more points by hitting red boxes which are spread through the driving area. On <strong>Steam<\/strong> the games \u00a0costs about\u00a07 \u20ac, that&#8217;s not really cheap but I think the is worth its cost.<\/p>\n<p>Here you can watch the Playstation 4 trailer<\/p>\n<div class=\"jetpack-video-wrapper\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Absolute Drift: Zen Edition Announcement Trailer | PS4\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Mbqk5k_7Og4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<h2>PROS<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Cool graphics<\/li>\n<li>Original Gameplay<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>CONS<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Game&#8217;s cost<\/li>\n<li>Driving phisics<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Drift Long &amp; Faster<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today I&#8217;d like to review an original videogame available soon on PS4 : Absolute Drift.
