Synopsis

Starsky & Hutch is an arcade racing game based on the popular 70s TV series, released as a tie-in to the movie. The game includes 18 missions, each based on an episode of the television series and presented by Antonio "Huggy Bear" Fargas. There is also a free roam mode, in which the player explores the GTA-like environment in search of action and trouble.

Like the film, the game doesn't play quite straight. Starsky & Hutch is currently filming a TV show, and each mission's score reflects how friendly your ride is. You receive gold, silver, or bronze medals for each mission based on your performance, and must obtain at least 1 gold and 2 silver in Season 1 for a second season to be commissioned, and 3 gold and 2 silver in Season 2 for there to be a third to complete.

The general objective of each mission is usually to pursue and destroy a criminal's car. There is always a secondary target as well. Additionally, the player will gain viewers by punching the bad guy, performing elaborate jumps and slides, almost hitting civilians, and hitting the bonus targets such as canisters scattered throughout the levels. Hitting civilians will lose viewers.
