PartyVroom: free kart racing with your friends

PartyVroom is a free party kart racer you can play right in your browser, or on iPhone, iPad and Android. Share a 4-letter room code and up to 40 friends can race together. Or play solo against up to 15 bots. There are no accounts, no ads and nothing to download.

How to start a party race

1. Open partyvroom.com and tap Party Online, then Create a Room.
2. Share the 4-letter code, the invite link or the QR code with your friends.
3. Friends open the link (or type the code) and tap I'm Ready.
4. The host picks a track, laps, bots and bot skill, then taps Start Race.

Want a longer session? Turn on Grand Prix for three races on three tracks, with points added up and a champion at the end. It works solo too.

Smaller groups are topped up with bots, so every race has a full grid. Friends who join mid-race watch until the next one starts. If your phone loses signal for a moment, you rejoin the race in the same kart.

Driving tips

• Rocket start: start holding gas just as the "2" fades in the countdown, and keep holding it until "GO" for a launch boost. With auto-gas on a phone, hold DRIFT instead.
• Mini-turbos: the longer you drift, the bigger the boost. Purple sparks give the biggest one.
• Jump ramps: tap DRIFT (or Space) in the air for a trick, and land it for a boost.
• Boost pads and crests give you speed and small jumps.
• Heavy karts shove light ones out of the way when you bump.
