**Scar Speed** is structured as an *open-ended car racing/battling* universe. The Scar Speed core team builds functionality for the game in concurrence with the community. The fundamental building block of Scar Speed is skill-based gameplay design; only by having a competitive gaming experience can the ecosystem attract enough like-minded players.

## **Racing/Battling**

The core of Scar Speed lies in racing other players while battling them tactically using **Power-Ups** to destroy the competition. Power-Ups are the unique ingredient which can turn the tide of any race/battle; only if used wisely. The game incorporates various [**game modes**](/whitepaper/scar-speed-game-model/gameplay/game-modes.md) which require the players to strategize accordingly.
