What's it all about?
City Pop Drive is a one-thumb arcade drive through pastel 80s city pop scenery. Pass traffic close to fill the Breeze meter and boost, reach each checkpoint before the timer runs out, and choose the scenic or the express road at every fork. Five maps (Seaside, Midnight Expressway, Crossing City, Maple Pass, Snow Resort), each with its own twist and adaptive music that changes with your route, and 25 record-sleeve covers to collect.
