What is Elastic Car 3D?
An arcade car game about never lifting off in busy traffic. Collecting the yellow cars speeds you up and hands you a short spell of invulnerability that lets you carve straight through whatever is in front.
How to play
Your car keeps gathering pace and your job is to touch and drag it between lanes. Find gaps without touching the vehicles ahead, and roll over the yellow cars to gain speed and a brief spell of invulnerability. While that is active you shove aside anything in your way, but the ordinary rules return once it runs out. The longer you go without contact, the higher your score climbs, and the first real collision ends the drive.

Tips
- Do not cross three lanes at once to reach a yellow car, because the traffic in between catches you.
- Aim for the busiest lane the instant invulnerability starts, since that is where you gain the most ground.
- Begin each lane change earlier as the speed rises, as a last moment input never arrives in time.
