Hop On!

Rug Racers: Ultimate is a multiplayer pseudo 3D racing game with flying carpets that you steer with an actual carpet! Hop on the authentic oriental carpet, grab onto its edge and push it left, right, up and down as you turn and weave through an exhilarating cityscape or feel the freedom and calm above the clouds. 


Become the 

Ultimate Rug Racer!

Play against your friend, family member or a complete stranger and race to be the first over the finish line. Stay ahead from the start or if you happen to fall behind, take help from your opponent's slipstream to catch up! Knock them out of the way and take the lead to show them who’s the ultimate rug racer between you!
