Synopsis

The player controls a car moving forward automatically on a scrolling down screen, without accelerator or brake, only avoiding walls. The speed increases every 30 seconds, making the game quickly difficult. Each player has three lives, with additional lives every 30 points. Ten variants exist, including two children's modes where the speed remains minimal. The real interest lies in the simultaneous two-player mode, rare on the Atari 2600: each can try to score more points or push the other against the walls. Despite this fun concept, the game remains limited and monotonous, which probably explains why Atari did not choose to publish it. Racer remains a curiosity, witness to Roklan's beginnings.
