Smashy Road is a not-so-new game for the Android and iOS platforms that came out a year or two ago, but has only now achieved mass popularity thanks to its far-more-famous sequel, Smashy Road: Wanted. This game has much different gameplay than its successor – basically, your goal is to go as far as you can while avoiding cops and other cars on the highway, while collecting coins so that you can get more cars. Read on for some tips and tricks for Smashy Road!
You can swipe forward to accelerate, and then swipe back to decelerate. There are a total of three speeds that you can go: really fast, at the speed of traffic, or practically stopped. Make wise use of these speeds so that you can avoid getting knocked around by other cars and smashing into trees.
You can collect coins along the way too. Once you get 200 coins, you can take a spin in the gacha in order to get another car. There are a ton of cars as well as plenty of secret cars that you can get in this game. You can also hit the “earn coins” button to get free coins by watching a video.
Cars all turn the same and go at the same speed regardless of which one you pick, unlike Wanted, where they all have different characteristics. The only thing that different cars do is give a slight change to the graphics in the game. Still though, you have nothing else to spend your coins on, so why not spend them on some cars?
Both sides of the freeway will always go in the same direction. Pass in the grass only sparingly, as passing through the grassy area will be risky due to all of the trees that pop up. You can even pass via the train track on the left side if you are really daring, but watch out for the light to make sure that a train isn’t coming.
Watch out for when a cop comes, because then you will not be able to slow down. You will have to be a lot more careful when it comes to passing since you won’t have the help of the brakes. After you drive ahead of them for awhile, they will go away and stop following you, at which point you can then start slowing down when you need to again.
