Thumb Drift is a 2016 action game developed and published by the Australian indie studio SMG Studio. In the game, the player has to control a car to avoid hitting obstacles or the edge of the track using their thumb. It was released for iOS on February 18, 2016, followed by a port for Android in March 2016 and tvOS in September 2016.
The gameplay consists of the player drifting a car along different tracks.[1] This is done by the player dragging their finger left or right causing the back of the car to move in that direction.[2] There are coins on the track which the player can collect.[3] These coins can be spent on buying new cars for the player to play the game with.[2] If the player collides with the edge of the track or an obstacle the game is over.[1]
