# Getting Started

## Installing the Game Launcher

So you want to hit the tracks in Coinracer and start racing? The first thing you will need to do is head over to our [downloads page](/official-links/downloads.md), to download and install our partnered game launcher from [HyperPlay](https://www.hyperplay.xyz/).

## Signing Up & Logging In

After you have downloaded and installed HyperPlay, you can now run Coinracer from the game launcher (all games listed on HyperPlay have been thoroughly reviewed and audited for security).

## Navigating the Main Lobby&#x20;

Now let's dive into what you can do!
