Imagine that you just robbed a bank and the police is on your tail. Jump into a car and try to shake off the pursuit! This game is not about racing, it’s about drifting with a trunk full of cash through an insanely crowded city! You are being chased by the police that wants to get back each cent from the stolen money bag. Don’t let them take it back from you! Test your skills, drift across the city and find out if you can be faster than them. Let the drifty chase begin!
Robbing a bank has never been easier – you just need to handle a simple one tap mechanics to hit the road. A working thumb is literally everything you need. Beware of the police though as they won’t stop chasing and trying to smash you. If you hit another car or a building during the chase, you're busted. You have a long way ahead of you and plenty of time to develop your skill and to find out if you can beat your friends on the global leaderboards.
In Drifty Chase the longer you play the faster you go. Each car has different speed and handles a little bit differently so the game experience is never the same – it differs the more you play! Better cars let you earn more coins which lets you unlock other cars with a totally different game sceneries.
If you like drifting, race games or high tension, this game is definitely for you! Because of the one tap mechanics, it requires only one hand to play, so you can play Drifty Chase while taking a walk with your dog, riding a bus or during boring classes. Just don’t play it while driving a real car!

Community Insight:
All in all it is a great game but it would be even better if you could make it so police crash and then swat team would come after you the fbi then the military or even navy seals. And please please please make psycho city easier.
5stars hands down Andfortnite better.
Our name is Yoshikage Kira. Im 33 years old. Our house is in the northeast section of Morioh, where all the villas are, and we are not married. We work as an employee for the Kame Yu department stores, and we get home every day by 8 PM at the latest. We dont smoke, but we occasionally drink. Im in bed by 11 PM, and make sure we get eight hours of sleep, no matter what. After having a glass of warm milk and doing about twenty minutes of stretches before going to bed, we usually have no problems sleeping until morning. Just like a baby, we wake up without any fatigue or stress in the morning. We were told there were no issues at our last check-up. Im trying to explain that Im a person who wishes to live a very quiet life. We take care not to trouble ourselves with any enemies, like winning and losing, that would cause us to lose sleep at night. That is how we deal with society, and we know that is what brings us happiness. Although, if we were to fight we wouldnt lose to anyone.
How about you add a helicopter that fires machine guns and add national guard and FBI Vehicles.
A very nice game in our opinion it isnt a very big game and old phones can handle this the ads sometimes froze which then you had to close the app but this game is very good well done creators.
We are a 8 year old and we are sooo adicted you did a great job we played this in the at the airport and the plane for 7 hours! And the cop getting chased by a donut is hilariousgreat game! Stay safe.
This game is awesome, we are literally playing it at all times. Us and our friends all have it and we compete with it. We are all addicted to it.
Love the game, but please can you guys fix the hit boxes of the buildings in Mexico City? They seem to be larger than the actual building, and also the cactuses on the sidewalks also have the same problem.
It is a really good game but there is one glitch were there was no road and no cars and we really hope you can fix it.
This game is pretty fun but we hope u add a free mode to just drive where ever all an all it really fun and cool.
Actually a fun game, ads are kind of annoying though but it was only $2 to skip the ads and get a free continue for every play so not a huge deal, especially considering we think the game itself is worth about $2 anyway. Overall a cool game Id recommend.
Ill start off buy saying. Its a very fun and well made game. There are a lot of complaints about the ads. However the lifetime vip for 2 dollars removed all ads, makes vehicles half off, gives you free checkpoints, and all around speeds up progression. So for 2 dollars it is very much worth the vip rank. Because its a very enjoyable game without the ads. However as you get into the final stages of the game it is very dull. We have unlocked the final vehicle and made it through every league. Now the only thing left to do is beat our own highscore. This wouldnt bother us if the game didnt rely so much on luck and rng when you reach areas like surreal city. The speed is so fast that often we dont even have time to click for the next turn.
We have a idea for a online mode two players will be police and one will be the robber. The robber has to get from pointA to pointB be for the police get them the police have to bump into the robbers car the robber can only take 4 hits before crashing.
Despite what you're about to read, we enjoy this game. We really do. We enjoy it so much that even after not playing it for years, we downloaded it on an account different from the one we started on, paid to get rid of ads immediately, and got back to playing. However, this game has some serious pace-breaking flaws and some minor inconveniences. One issue we have is with the promotions with the paid pass. Upon opening the app, you will be presented with a promotion for another app made by Crimson Pine. Easy enough to close and they don't appear in between runs but we would expect this kind of thing to be gone for paid users. Cranking up the annoyance, there is a continue mechanic after you crash. For free users, it requires an ad and for paid users, it's free. That's not our issue. Upon continuing a run, the cars speed is reduced, breaking a pace the user has gotten used to. This is especially bad on later levels where trying to turn where you would before crashing makes you turn way sooner than you think. If you don't actively think about this when continuing, the feature basically becomes obsolete since you crash immediately after resuming. Our final issue with the game is the post-crash screen(s). After crashing, it shows you your stats blah blah blah but usually after hitting next, it shows another screen. Either a like us on FB screen or an easy money screen where you can watch an ad to get a lot of currency. This is annoying because it breaks the pace of doing runs back to back. We don't want to watch one of these things every time. We get it's beneficial but we wish you could turn it off when you just want to play the game. We also thinks it takes the fun out of trying to get a lot of money in each run but that's more of a personal opinion. If you want to do runs back to back with little disturbance, just turn on airplane mode. You won't be able to continue but it also won't show the second post-crash screen. We enjoy this game and wish nothing but the best for it but these issues can be really frustrating when trying to go for personal records.
We are so addicted to this game but it gets TOO HARD AT PSYCHO CITY. Some of the turn are just impossible because there is literally something on the building which kills you or else just get hit by a car. Make that a little easier. We would like that you could costumize your cars and upgrade them. There should also be multiplayer mode. AND AGAIN ABOU PSYCHO CITY PLEASE MAKE A WAY TO DODGE CARS AND REDUCE YOUR SPEED. Physics- TWO BOTS LITERALLY GO INTO EACHOTHER LIKE GHOSTS without crashing. And when you just touch A FREAKING CAR OR A BUILDING YOU FRIKING DIE LIKE A MOUSE. Please dont take hate but please update this game.
We dont really like this game because it not fair.
The gameplay is a lot of fun at first, but it begs you to watch ads or pay in order to advance in the game. Because of this after a couple of leagues it just gets boring and becomes a drag.
We would like more cars on the game that you could at least buy with the money you get while playing and from bank robberies.
They wont give us our money back.
We have no problem with this game but why cant the checkpoints last forever if you spend that much time getting cars then you would want more than a temporary boost but aside from that great game.
It could be nice to have more cards and power ups ;D And some more things to Rob.
Very fun game. Easy if you are good at timing. It would be nicer to have challenges a daily login rewards because we play this game everyday.
This game just needs more cars other than that its a great game.
So, once we deleted this game for no apparent reason, and then we were like,This game is so ! Why did we do that!!!and started banging our head against the wall(not too hard). If you are reading this after you have bought the app, wait for updates, and if you are reading this before, get it and keep it.Thank you! PS. Awesomest game ever! PPS. Awesomest game ever!(Wait, did we already say that?) Now, this part is edited. So, as soon as we posted this, we got a developer response. And that shows us that they care about people who write reviews.
Or adhd. Or ocd. Or ocd. Or ocd.
We have the cop car and Im confused as to why youre chased by a donut. It just seems like it would be better that when you used the cop car you would be chasing the robber. But besides that it is an awesome game and we love it.
So this has been a great app for wasting time doing drifts, and over time it's never lost it's appeal. However, the latest update has a couple of issues that need resolved. A) Randomly it doesn't register our taps to turn. Either we're tapping another car or a building or what IDK, but basically we're then crashing head on to a barrier. B) After a bribe, the velocity of the vehicle changes. Admittedly, we're riding the Police car, but after a bribe restart, the velocity is slower and our drifts are shorter than normal Police car drifts. Again, mixing up our driving. Combine those together and poop, we're now getting frustrated. We paid for the app; and it's totally worth it. We recommend it over all the ads between runs.
This is a great game we love this game but we have been stuck at psycho city for a month, recently you have updated the game and we were very frustrated to see that you had to get to 260 starting at 202. We previously was 2 turns off from 200 a few times but now we have to make an extra 10 turns to advance to next level. We also feel as there has been a increase in difficulty in the game.
These is what iPhone games need to be.
This game is awesome and fun Im waiting on an update cause we are almost going to get the police car and we are waiting with about 1.3 million dollars. And also how you can go under log trucks could you add more stuff like that? Its pretty cool Anyway thanks.
Ok so here's what happened so we were playing the game and we thought it was the most amazing game ever until when we got back to the menu and it froze.
Had some issues with ads freezing the game, but paid a few dollars to get them removed and it works great now. Also, some new cars that are more than the police car would be great, because Im sitting on 8.5 Million waiting for an update. :).
This is an amazing game. It's fun, addicting, and the style is cool. All the cars and citiesare amazing and look cool. Please add more cities and cars!! Also, when is the next update? Please add more cities in the next update!!!!!!!! :).
Good game just need to add new vehicles and new areas.
This is a very great game to burn some time. It is very addictive and fun. We hope you can make the cars a bit cheaper. Other than that this game is great.
A great game to kill the time. No complaints here.
It is fun even though it is repetitive.
We are addicted to this app! We love all the cities and how simple the game is, and we like the retro-ish style the game is. We wish you could add some car customization in the game. That would be fun. We have made it to all cities except the police one and we've been playing FOREVER trying to get to it! Amazing game.
Such a colorful addictive game.
The bribe button doesn't work and the game crashes every time we watch the bribe ad and some ads just crash the game (add more cars and cities).overall great game just fix the ads and we will give five stars :( One more star left fix now.
We're addicted to this game. Very easy to learn and play. We will open the app and the next thing we know it's 2 hours later. Our wife doesn't like us playing it because we don't get anything done around the house! We gave it 5 stars for simplicity, fun, and entertainment.
They give you a challenge and we like challenges and trust us you'll love this.
Awesome game and soundtrack love to keep playing. Nice designs of cars too.
We not number 1 and we got 1000 we have a video for proof and it said we have 811 after we crashed.
We would like some new cars with some abilities and what not. Also maybe a feature where you can upgrade a car. We really like VIP and we think it is really helpful for getting them high scores. We download it and that day we got the Rasta bus and cant seem to get passed the Psycho city or level. Our high score is 196 and get passed the left turns cuz someone is always there. Like to see them updates also a really great game.
Good but the ads a 30 seconds long.
Simple, fun and easy to get into.
We will go around 70-100 drifts and make the cops smash into things and then they are right on our back again you should make it to where if you make the cops smash into enough things you get away that time and get a bonus or something or give us the robbers more than one crash other than that the game is really fun the reason why only 2 stars is because of the issue we have with the cops invincibility.
We hate the big fish casino ad and its really annoying. Im not downloading it and Im not buying vip. The ad froze and made us lose our 27k from the bank robbery.
After this latest update the car turns too late during the bank robbery. Once you crash (even after the bank robbery) there's no way to continue through. Disappointing, because we thoroughly enjoyed the app until recently.
