Before you try to beat your high score, you must understand how the game operates. Unlike standard racing games, this is an endless survival runner.
The Objective: The primary goal is not to finish a race, but to survive. The longer you survive, the higher your "Wanted" level becomes, and the more aggressive the police (and eventually SWAT/Military) become.
The Controls:
The "Wanted" System:
Most players lose because they drive recklessly. In Escape Road 2, the roads are narrow. Treat your escape like a stressful commute to work.
The physics engine in Escape Road is arcade-style but heavily relies on momentum. Mastering the drift is the single most important skill for "work" (grinding scores).
Escape Road 2 is a driving game where you play as a bank robber trying to escape the police. It is the sequel to the original "Escape Road."
Once you understand the controls, you need a strategy to survive past the 5-minute mark.
