About This Game

One debt. Seven rivals.

Once every monsoon, the lights in sixteen cities go out for one second, and your phone rings. You owe Along. Win THE BOLT, a race from Kuala Lumpur to the foot of Kinabalu, and your debt is cleared. Lose, and Along owns you. All you have left is a yellow Panda Kingz.

Take their pink slips

Seven drivers owe Along too, and each one waits for you on their own roads: a courier racing to buy back his father's workshop, a tycoon out on bail, a fisherman's daughter, a Sabah rally driver on one good knee, a framed ex-cop, an engine builder who swore he'd never race again, and a Sarawak timber hauler who wants Along's mask. Beat them and their marker is yours: their car, their story, and what happens to their wish.

Race dangerously

• Takedowns. Slam rivals into walls, traffic and off the road. Crashed? Impact Time slows everything down. Steer your wreck into a rival and take them with you.

• Earn your nitro. Near misses, oncoming traffic, drifts and air fill the meter. Chain them together to multiply your score.

• PILE-UP. Launch into a live junction and cause as much damage as you can. Steer your wreck in the air, fly through the multiplier rings and set off PETIR.

Malaysia, end to end

Bukit Bintang's neon, the Federal Highway, Melaka's Red Square, the Penang Bridge in a storm, the paddy of Perlis, Ipoh's limestone, the Kuching waterfront and the summit road of Kinabalu. Real landmarks, shophouse rows, overhead signs pointing to real towns, and traffic on Malaysian plates.

After dark

Every race starts after seven. Race the golden hour down the Federal Highway, the blue hour over the Penang Bridge and the neon night of Bukit Bintang. Shop fronts glow under the five-foot ways, lanterns hang across the street, the rain-wet road catches every lamp, and behind the shophouses the towers light up floor by floor.
