Synopsis

The Powerdrome racing series is in its 24th year of high-speed, high-octane action. Why race on flat 2D circuits when you can race through a multi-textured half-pipe aboard a small plane? Typhoon Racing has taken up the challenge and registered you in its machine.

There are 6 different circuits, with obstacles such as chicanes, tunnels and grinding gates. The shading of the sections indicates the approach of a turn or dive. There are 5 computer opponents to face in single-player mode, while a data link cable allows for two-player play.

Each planet has its own atmosphere, and your machine's filters will need to be adjusted to take this into account. Rain at some circuits requires a pit stop for a change. You are armed with afterburners, which can allow you to gain speed in the open air, but should not be used excessively. The Amiga version allows you to adjust the sensitivity of the controls - in both cases the joystick is easier to use, but the mouse is considered faster ultimately.
