A few months ago, one of my friends introduced me to a YouTube channel dedicated to a game called Trackmania. Before this, I had surprisingly never heard of this game since I usually enjoy racing games.

The YouTuber's name is Wirtual. He creates videos about interesting Trackmania records and incredible feats.

After watching many of his videos, I decided to download the game to try it out since it is free to play. I immediately got attached to the game's playstyle, even though I’m not very good at it yet.

In this post, I will introduce you to Trackmania and explain what the game consists of.

What is Trackmania?

TrackMania is a high-speed racing video game series developed by the French studio Nadeo and published by Ubisoft. The series features a unique gameplay style in which players race on tracks made up of various different blocks and can customize and create their own tracks.
