| 4x4 Off-Road Racing | Epyx;U.S. Gold | 1988 | You're King of the Mountain on the Off-Road race circuit, winning events everywhere from the frigid midwest to the muddy south. Now you're sitting on a ton of hot truck in the desert, racing toward a heat-rippled horizon dotted with sand traps and tire-ripping rocks. And you're wishing you brought more water along for the ride... Survival of the Fastest Off-road racing is a test of speed and survival. First you pick your challenge: The Georgia Mud Fest, The Michigan Winter Wreck-off, the Death Valley Trek or the Baja Challenge. Then you choose a truck, customize it and stock it with tools. And survival supplies like food and water. Just in case. Makes the Grand Prix Look Like Sissy Stuff Those guys in fancy race suits don't use winches to lift rigs out of mud bogs. They don't change tires punctured by razor sharp cacti. And when it snows - they don't even have to race. In Off-Road racing these rough and tumble conditions are all part of the exciting challenge! * Claw over desert dunes, "bog" through mud holes, slide through ice - four exciting races over a variety of obstacles and terrains. * Customize the truck of your choice with the right gear for your chosen race terrain. * Bring along supplies for off-road repairs: tools, winches, spare tires, parts - even a mechanic. * Race rig-to-rig against die-hard opponents including a screamin' demon truck.*** [33]*** [22] | labelimagesubject |
| Super Off Road | Virgin Games;Mastertronic (Graftgold) | 1990 | Enter the world of off-road racing as 4 vehicles will face each other, on a series of tracks which are based around flipped and reversed versions of a core selection. Fame, glory and bikini clad women await your victories and the taste of dirt awaits if you fail. Let a computer car beat you and you lose one of your 3 credits. Successful races bring more money, which can be used to soup up their machine. Boosts to top speed, grip and acceleration can be purchased, and your nitro boost must be kept topped up. If you are desperate for upgrades, you can buy into your spare credits. Only your off-road driving abilities will be enough to pull you to first place in these races. Play alone or with up to 3 other players (depending on the version) in this classic arcade game.*** [17]*** [83]*** [102]*** [33]*** [7]*** [23]*** [2]*** [62]*** [82]*** [63]*** [52]*** [37] | labelimagesubject |
