How to play Kart Command
Kart Command is a free voice controlled game you can play online with no download. Your kart races down a 3-lane track. Say LEFT or RIGHT to change lanes and dodge cones & oil. Say BOOST to zoom (double points, 3 s) when you have a ⚡ charge. Because you play with sound instead of buttons, Kart Command is great for parties, kids and streamers, and every round takes only a minute or two.
Open Kart Command and allow microphone access when your browser asks (the front camera is only used as a live background and is optional).
Controls
- Make a sound (shout, hum, sing or clap) to trigger the main action.
- Louder or longer sounds give a stronger action; silence lets go.
- Use the sensitivity slider at the bottom if the game reacts too much or too little.
Tips
- Play in a quiet room first, then raise the sensitivity for noisy places.
- Short, sharp sounds give the most precise timing.
- Grab power-ups such as shields and slow motion to survive the hard waves.

Kart Command game guide
Goal of the game
In Kart Command you play with spoken command words. Your kart races down a 3-lane track. Say LEFT or RIGHT to change lanes and dodge cones & oil. Say BOOST to zoom (double points, 3 s) when you have a ⚡ charge.
Each run in Kart Command lasts until you lose your 3 lives, so the real goal is to survive longer and beat your own best score.
Quick start
Kart Command in one line: Call out LEFT, RIGHT and BOOST to race your go-kart through traffic cones!
- Press Play on this page — Kart Command loads in a few seconds right in the browser.
- Tap Allow when the browser asks for the microphone, then read the short tutorial card.
- Play your first run of Kart Command slowly to learn how it reacts to spoken command words.
- After a game over, press Play again to try to beat your best.
Controls explained
- Say the command words clearly and one at a time; Kart Command listens through your browser's speech recognition.
- Use the sensitivity slider if Kart Command reacts to background noise or misses your voice.
- If Kart Command feels too hard at first, play a practice round to learn the timing before chasing a high score.
Scoring and levels
Points in Kart Command come from the code-defined rewards of 15 points for different actions, so the bigger moves are worth chasing. You start with 3 lives. Your best score is saved in your browser, and signed-in players also appear on the Kart Command leaderboard.
Tips and strategy
- Stay near the centre in Kart Command; it gives you the most room to dodge in either direction.
- Don't chase every pickup in Kart Command — grab only the ones on your safe path.
- Play Kart Command in a quiet room, then try it at a party — the louder the crowd, the funnier it gets.
- Replay Kart Command a few times: each run teaches you the patterns, and scores usually double after the first five games.
Device requirements and privacy
Kart Command needs a microphone — the one built into your phone, laptop or headset is enough. Allow microphone access when asked; the sound is analysed live in your browser and never uploaded. It is free to play; free players may see a short ad between rounds (never during play), and Premium removes all ads.
