INTRODUCTION (From the manual):
As SUPER STUNTMAN, you must fight your way through fires, explosions, cannonballs and more to complete each scene. All the while, the bad guys try to barage you into the blazing fires.
Each scene presents a different challenge...
Scene 1) Deadly CAR CHASE through the boulder strewn desert.
Scene 2) Ultra-fast POWER BOAT race.
Scene 3) Weave your way through the trees of a forest at break-neck speed.
Scene 4) Use turbo-boost to jump the GRAND CANYON... or face a grizzly death on the rocks below.
Scene 5) Battle it out with the violent street gangs at midnight on the streets of New York.
Scene 6) Steer your boat through the rapids in the rough white water chase.
Scene 7) The GRAND FINALE
REVIEW:
You are the stuntman in a movie, and you got to complete seven scenes without dying! On each scene you can crash twice, and get a bonus each time for showing amazing action, but if you crash a third time you are dead and the game is over.
If you hit the red fires, or if a cannonball hits you, you will crash. Hitting the rocks does not harm you, but they can make a dead end for you, and you will have to put the car in reverse, causing you to lose precious time. When you hit other cars/boats you gain extra points for showing more action.
The game has a quite good use of colors, the scrolling is okay, and it is actually pretty fun to play!
The original game was a 48k only production. This re-release for the 128k has got extra loading screens, trainer option, soundtrack in AY format, in game AY sound fx.
The game was published for ZX Spectrum 48k by Code Masters Ltd in 1988, and re-released for ZX Spectrum 128k by Goodboy/Tiboh in 2018.
