Developed by Crawfish Interactive and published by Bam Entertainment, Driven arrived on the Game Boy Advance in 2001 as a racing game.

It belongs to the GBA's earliest wave of games. Other notable GBA releases from 2001 include Mario Kart: Super Circuit, Sonic Advance and Advance Wars.

Crawfish Interactive also made Defender of the Crown, Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever and Nicktoons Racing for the GBA.

Driven supports up to 4 players, whether that means taking turns or going head-to-head.

Pick it if…

  • you want to race and compete
  • you have time for a quick session (under an hour, or endless arcade fun)
  • you have a friend to play against
  • you've played the GBA hits and want something less obvious

Maybe skip it if…

  • you want a story or exploration rather than laps

What playing Driven is like

Racing games range from realistic driving to kart racers with weapons and shortcuts. Races are short, making them great for quick sessions and split-screen rivalries.

Tip for newcomers: Learn each track's racing line and braking points; in kart racers, item strategy matters as much as driving.
