Speed Demons in IOS

Highway Racing + Crazy Crashes

Walkthrough, Guilds, Tips on this special game

Our Expert Score

74/100

Speed Demons is a chaotic, top-down racer that feels like a modern tribute to 'Micro Machines.' The sheer number of vehicles on the screen at once is impressive—it truly feels like you're weaving through a freeway at 200 mph. The physics are arcadey and 'floaty,' which makes drifting around curves feel exciting, though it takes a few races to get the hang of the sensitivity.

The progression is focused on upgrading your car's durability and speed, which becomes vital as the 'demons' (aggressive AI racers) start trying to ram you off the road. It’s a bit more aggressive than your average racer, but that’s where the fun lies. If you enjoy games where you're rewarded for high-speed risks and aggressive driving, Speed Demons is a great way to scratch that itch. The short race lengths make it ideal for mobile play.
