The build-race loop

Step

In short Every round in Brace follows the same four-step cycle, so knowing the loop is the foundation of everything else.

Brace runs on a repeating cycle: build, race, add obstacles, race again. Each pass through the loop makes the track harder.

Enter build mode place track pieces to shape the course before anyone races.
Race the course drive what you built.
Add obstacles drop hazards onto the track to make the next run harder for everyone.
Race again navigate the new obstacles your group placed.
Repeat keep stacking obstacles and racing until the round ends.

Controls to memorise

Check

In short The controls shift between race mode and build mode, so knowing both sets stops you from fumbling at the wrong moment.

Most keys do double duty depending on whether you are racing or building.

WASD moves your vehicle forward, backward, and through turns while racing.
SHIFT applies the handbrake in race mode, and speeds up the camera in build mode.
E uses a powerup item during a race.
R rotates a build piece when you are placing track.
E and Q move the camera up and down in build mode.

Common questions

Can I play Brace by myself?

Yes — you can build a track and race it solo. However, some badges, like Perfectionist, specifically require three or more players in the game, so those can only be earned in a multiplayer session.

No. Every vehicle in Brace moves at the same speed regardless of its price or rarity.

What is the best track piece for placing lots of obstacles?

Donut, Sharp U-Turn, and U-Turn all have seven obstacle slots, which is the highest of any piece in the game.

What happens if I hit my own trap?

You earn the Self-Sabotage badge.
