CSR Racing — is divided into 5 levels, each of which introduces increasingly faster confrontations and vehicles. To advance to the next level, the player needs to race and defeat the crew boss to achieve the level. After defeating the boss of each level, the player will face a high-stakes rematch. If the player wins the race, they are awarded the boss's car; however, if the player loses, they must return the gold they won in the previous boss race. Unlike traditional racing games, CSR Racing has no steering, braking or acceleration controls. Instead, the game focuses on changing gears and using nitrous oxide by tapping the screen, much like a rhythm game.
