Once returned from the brink of oblivion rarity glorious era of the arcades of the 80-ies-90-ies of XX century. In a sense, this game can be called a variation (or a variation) is much more known for Marble Madness, only to manage we now have is not a ball, and a small sports bike.
The General essence is really like. Prospect review – isometric (with vertical scrolling), you control (or try to manage...) a motorcycle moving through the divided cells in the landscape at different levels of height with an abundance of all sorts of obstacles and traps throughout the multiple levels of increasing difficulty. The objective in each level is to get to the exit; a time limit for the achievement of this action no, but the sooner you will be able to do it – the more points you get for completing it; the fuel in the game, but, of course.
The obstacles are different at different levels and can include rivers, hills, lowlands and pits, piles of debris, logs, tires or anything else, and in the future will be added and the flow of vehicles; they either need to go around or jump over. In the event of a collision with an obstacle will have to give some points to fix my bike; between the levels of these points can be spent on its modernization. From the "stunts" if you can call it that, only riding on the rear wheel and jumping.
In itself, the control is almost identical to Marble Madness, that is to call it quick does not. And the most important thing is that move up the screen ("back") here is generally impossible, so this arcade can be actually equated to the puzzle "rapid response" once made a mistake and, for example, took a wrong turn – all level is lost. But to call this approach the drawback is in any case impossible.
Graphically, the game looks very nice, all of the objects and the motorcycle itself is drawn relative to the details (although, of course, some kind of transcendent beauty to do). Verdict – a good and interesting game "on the dynamics", it is suitable for evening entertainment, if you can cope with the management. The main value, of course, collector's, because it really is one of the rarest DOS games.
