Gameplay

The game can be played with up to four players (local or online) and features three different game modes: Dollar Dash, Hit 'n' Run, and Save the Safe.

In Dollar Dash mode, players race around a top-down map collecting cash while trying to avoid other players and obstacles. Players can use power-ups to attack, defend themselves, or outrun their opponents. At set intervals, players can drop off the cash they've collected with a van to score points. The game ends when one player has reached a certain number of points or when the time runs out.

Reception

Dollar Dash received "generally unfavorable" reviews according to review aggregator Metacritic.

Chris Carter at Destructoid stated that "If you're not a mega-fan of the genre though, it's probably best to keep your dollars in your wallet."
