Kart Rush: Race the Clock is a modification of Latius's Countdown and Daytona Kart mods intended for single player that has players completing as many zones as possible before time runs out.

So, how do you play?

Kart Rush: Race the Clock adds a bomb timer from A Hat in Time, located at the bottom right of the screen. Your goal is to complete as many maps as possible before your time runs out and you explode. For each lap you complete, you'll earn points based on the difficulty you select. When you complete a map, you earn points based on how much time you had left, plus the difficulty bonus. You will also be awarded a time bonus at the start of the next map. The higher the difficulty, the tighter the time limit and the more score you earn.

You are able to change the difficulty to one of 7 modes:

  • Noob: 150% time limit, 50% score
  • Easiest: 125% time limit, 75% score
  • Easy: 110% time limit, 90% score
  • Normal: Default Kart Rush time limit and score
  • Hard: 95% time limit, 105% score
  • Expert: 90% time limit, 120% score
  • Master: 80% time limit, 180% score
  • INSANE: 70% time limit, 280% score
You're also able to force a difficulty update or turn on adaptive difficulty in the standard mode, which changes the difficulty after a streak of six maps.


But what if I wanted to play the game like a Grand Prix?

We have you covered! GP Mode lets you choose your starting map and takes you through random maps with increasing difficulty as you play the game. Completing a number of maps will increase the difficulty based on preset.

Or, if you're looking for a challenge, try Death Wish Mode!

Death Wish Mode drops you into Green Hills Zone and gives you 1000 seconds to complete as many maps possible. After the first map, you will gain half the normal time you would get outside of Death Wish Mode. Bumping into walls or falling off the map will make you lose time.
