Players must execute flawless drifts on a circuit with several sharp turns in the straightforward yet difficult driving game Drift Boss. Every move relies on the ability to precisely change the steering timing; there are no simple straight routes to run quickly. The game can finish instantly if the car makes one off-the-road skid.

The controls for the game are quite basic: press to drift and release to move straight. But the key to success lies in timing calculations. Short distances cause consecutive bends to form, necessitating attention when managing steering angles. In order to prevent going off the track, players must be able to modify the drift delay in addition to having fast reflexes.

Every play presents a different challenge because each track is created at random. Since it is impossible to memorize the path, players must adjust to real-life circumstances, which makes each drift phase more challenging and thrilling.
