Chase H.Q., often known as Taito Chase H.Q. (タイトーチェイスH.Q.) is an action-driving game developed by Taito. Originally released in arcades, it was ported to the Sega Master System and Sega Game Gear.

Two sequels, Special Criminal Investigation and Chase H.Q. II were released for the Sega Master System and Sega Mega Drive, respectively.

Gameplay

Players take control of two police detectives as they attempt to capture criminals who are fleeing the city with their high speed cars. After evading other cars and obstacles and finally reaching the target, players must cause enough damage to fugitive vehicle before the time limit to finish the stage. While attacking from behind also works, hitting from sides causes most damage. Turbo boosts can be used (limitedly, 3 in each stage) for short time maximum speed.

Game had some sort of a "Shop" system in which players could purchase upgrades for their cars, for example bumpers to cause more damage, an extra Turbo boost for the next stage, engine power up etc.

Game restarts from beginning with more difficult targets after all 5 stages are completed.
