Developed by Magnetic Fields and published by Gremlin in 1990

With irrepressible AI drivers and randomised track hazards this top-down racing game from Magnetic Fields is fun, albeit a game probably too difficult for its own good at times.

Unlike the sequel, which doubles down on missiles and other destructive upgrades, Super Cars is much more focused on racing. It is possible to purchase front and rear missiles, but their use is restricted to single use per race, and the fact the wreckage of destroyed cars left behind means their use is designed to create obstacles for the AI drivers on subsequent laps.

Super Cars is another fine showcase for the talents of the late Ben Daglish, with plenty of funky melodies and beats.
