Genre: Racing

















Release Date RRP Code

Hot-Rod is a top-down racing game developed for Sega System 24 hardware by Sega.

Gameplay

In the game, players race each other around a track, avoiding obstacles, making sure they don't run out of fuel and trying not to be cut off by the camera. It is very similar to Micro Machines. The player can obtain money from winning races, which can be used to purchase extra parts for the car. The shop's music is the same track that was used in Fantasy Zone.

The arcade cabinet comes in three variations - a two player upright, a three player upright and a four player table top version. There are also "turbo" versions in which the game runs at twice the original speed.

History

Legacy

The game was ported to the Amiga, Amstrad CPC, Atari ST, Commodore 64 and ZX Spectrum computers by Activision. It has never seen a release on a Sega console.
