Highway Heat’s simplistic yet addicting game play has us driving for hours, so we have some tips right here in our Highway Heat cheats, tips and tricks strategy guide!

Launch into the air!

You can launch your car by dropping the road down a bit, then quickly flicking back up to create a steep launching point. The more you drop the road, the higher your car will go! You will need to utilize this technique to get to some of the out-of-reach stars and paths. Also, you gain bonus points at the end of every level depending on how much air time your car got.

Go off road for a bonus!

Notice that some of those buildings are glowing a nice light blue? You can actually drive safely on these surfaces, and we highly recommend you do! When you are on these blue surfaces, you are considered off-road. Not only is this a safe way to travel, but you also gain end level bonus gems depending on how long you were off-roading for.

Throw cops into the walls!

As you can probably guess at this point, destroying cop cars is another end level bonus. You may be asking, how do you destroy them when they are hot on your tail? Well, that is where your road creation tricks come into play! It is a bit tricky, but each cop destroyed is worth a lot of gems, so try to pull it off if you can!

Remember how you create ramps to launch yourself into the air? You can also do that with the cops that are right behind you. If you can make it so that launch both yourself and the cop, try to do it so that you narrowly dodge a building while the cop slams right into the side of it. Instant gratification!

Ceilings are safe!

It is important to remember that the only dangerous spots of a building are the sides of it. Say for example you fling yourself upward and smack into the ceiling of a building – you will be perfectly fine. However, if you slam into the side of a building you are done for! So, do not worry about going to high when you are jumping underneath a ceiling.
