I’ve been thinking about how different types of car games require more than just driving fast. Racing games can involve planning the best route, parking games require spatial awareness, and stunt or obstacle games often require players to figure out timing and movement.

Do you think playing car games can actually help develop skills such as reaction time, spatial awareness, or problem-solving? Or are these skills mainly useful within the game itself? I’d be interested to hear how other players see the connection between gaming and real-world skills.
