Personal review

At first this conversion looks great. Nice, colorful graphics make this game one of the best looking of all CPC racers. But the graphics are not fluent enough to give you pleasure and makes the handling very difficult and unsatisfactory. On the other hand with lots of continues the game is too easy and it is very likely that you will already see the end after the first time you play it.

Official description

Turbo Out Run takes you on a 16 stage race across America. Along the way you will battle bumper to bumper with good guys and bad guys, police cars, Porsches and blown engines. Numerous scenes will take you through congested city streets, over snow and icy mountain passes and across sunbaked deserts. Drive daytime and night time - go for manual or auto gearbox selection, even customise your Ferrari F40 with High Grip Tyres, but whatever else you do... use the Turbo booster power sparingly - THIS BABY'S HOT AND RARING TO GO!!

TURBO OUT RUN "NO OTHER CAR RACING GAME COMES CLOSE."
