Game description:

Track & Field is a sports game that allows the player to have an experience based around the Summer Olympic Games. It is based on an arcade game of the same name. Events include 100 meter dash, hammer throw, the long jump and the 110 meter hurdles.

If you want to go to the next event or round then you will have to qualify, by beating increasingly difficult maximum times or minimum distances. This game contains a two player option, in which the players take it in turns.


What I think:

Not a bad version, but I REALLY hate the 110 meter hurdles event-
If you are too far on the right you can't see the next hurdle and it has a weird collision\hit detection.
