Death Race 82

Overview

The year is 2082, and post-World War III atomic radiation has reduced the world's population to less than 10,000. You've been captured by corrupt land barons, and must escape their robot-protected castle. You hop into a turbo-car, and must navigate the 2 miles of twisting concrete jungle that surrounds the castle in every direction. Hiding out are robotic Death Squad cars armed with laserquark cannons, which will attempt to hunt down the player, and destroy them. The robotic lasers are so powerful, they can slice through solid walls to destroy the player.

The player controls a small car that must navigate 10 screens of twisting mazes to escape. Your vehicle is armed with 20 oil slicks, that will incapacitate vehicles behind them, as wall as a rocket bazooka that can destroy robots in front of the vehicle. The game offers 10 difficult levels of varying player and robot speeds. The vehicle is controlled with the apple paddle, which allows it to be rotated clockwise or counterclockwise.
