![]() Pulling it apart and building a different course takes a matter of seconds it’s ridiculously easy. The track itself is vinyl sheet with a couple of magnets at each end to join it together. Between those extremes are wacky things such as a jump set, a crossing, and a kit to make banked turns. Obviously, if you want to go bigger and better, Anki sells expansion sets that range from a pair of extra straights or corners, right up to a 23-piece mega-bundle. There are eight different track layouts you can make, and they’re all clearly illustrated on the box. One of the straights in this set has a new ‘Power Zone’, however. You get four straights (including one with a start-finish line), six 90-degree corners with guard rails, and a pair of track risers so you can make a figure-of-eight course. The track supplied in the Fast & Furious Edition is almost the same as in the standard starter set. It’s the same awesome Overdrive action, but with added character and a new track piece.Īnki Overdrive: Fast & Furious Edition – What do you get? This edition is themed around the Fast & Furious movies, with new cars and a flashy version of the app that enables you to race Dom, Hobbs and the rest of the gang. So it’s more like supercharged slot-racing (then fitted with a mini-gun and given a wax’n’polish). Oh, and you can ‘shoot’ your rivals, virtually upgrade your vehicle, and play single-player against AI-driven robot cars. It’s basically slot-racing but without the need for slots. Anki OVERDRIVE pairs advanced robotics and gaming together to bring physical products to life at level of depth and intelligence never before possible.”Īnd Sofman says the Anki OVERDRIVE: Fast & Furious Edition gives players the chance to relive epic movie moments as they battle the Toretto crew, or race against friends and family members.What is Anki Overdrive: Fast & Furious Edition?Īnki Overdrive has been one of our favourite toys of the past few years. “It’s a video game in the real world, providing players with a totally new gameplay experience. “Anki OVERDRIVE takes a game that we all used to love as children - slot cars - and thrusts it into the future,“ says Sofman. Sofman says in the Anki OVERDRIVE game, players take control of the Supercars of the future via handheld mobile devices and battle and race against friends, family, or AI-controlled commanders in a variety of game modes, or, go head-to-head with elite commanders in the campaign mode. The Anki team also includes Hollywood designer Harald Belker, designer of the Batmobile as well as vehicles from Tron: Legacy and Minority Report. Sofman says Cozmo is the result of more than six years of research and development by a team of the “best and brightest roboticists, film animators, game developers and designers”. “He has been intricately designed to have a deep personality and character traits like the robots that we’ve come to love in Hollywood films, and we’re incredibly excited for everyone to meet him.” “Cozmo is bringing advanced robotics into the home in an engaging and emotive way,” said Boris Sofman, chief executive and co-founder, Anki.
