A playthrough of Bob Carter's Cross Country Rallye, published by Continental Software for the Apple II in 1982.
Cross Country Rallye is essentially a maze game for one to eight players. Drive your vehicle across the country, reach all eight checkpoints in ascending order, and return to start. Avoid crashing into oncoming vehicles and don't run out of gas.
The green arrows show the direction to the next checkpoint, while the red arrows show nearby vehicles. The map in the lower right-hand corner can show where your car(s) and checkpoints are but won't show the roads.
While simplistic in gameplay, I'm sure the "open-world" layout and top-down graphics really sparked players' imaginations back in 1982.
