Riot Racers is a play-to-earn car racing game where players own parts of the game. Players can earn by playing the game or by simply owning NFTs in the game. The official in-game currency is the RIOT token.

Players can earn RIOT tokens when winning races, by owning certain game assets like Gas Stations or Mechanic Shops, and by enrolling in the Riot Owner's Club. The amount of RIOT that can be earned from racing depends on the class of that car being raced. Cars exist in seven different classes, from Rookie to Legendary; and the higher the class, the higher the amount of RIOT tokens that can be earned.
