For the most part tunnel racing games are pretty standard in what you do in them. Generally you race through tunnel, usually either against time or against opponents, collecting power-ups and dodging obstacles on your way to the finish line.

Yesterday we talked about Gameloft who had begun teasing their next blockbuster hit game through an app on Facebook where users could clear pixels off of a black image, slowly revealing exclusive art from whatever game it was supposed to be.
