This game was also made for the
Nintendo (
NES), and was one of the earliest games for the above system. Gameplay was (is) nearly
identical.
You speed up or slow down by pressing UP or DOWN on the control pad, and using LEFT or RIGHT allows you to steer. The B Button shoots your gun (it is rapid fire), and the A Button allows you to use the special abilities that you gain from driving into the semi's with the various logos on the tops. These items include water, oil, and missiles.
It also has very catchy music, some of the finest on the NES.
Also, mkb informs me that after 120,000 points, the game stops giving you extra lives.
