Personal review

Considered better than the Commodore 64 version of Spy Hunter on the games release, Spy Hunter was both highly playable and addictive.

Official description

The fate of the free world is in your hands and only you have the power to save it. You're being tailed by four of the most diabolical secret agents known to Man, and they have only one mission, to destroy the Spy Hunter! Do you activate the high-density smoke screen, or drop an oil lick that will send them skidding into the ozone? Think quick! This is a high-speed, seek and destroy, action classic.
