Moto-Cross is a 1976 discrete logic motorcycle racing game produced by Sega. The point of the game is to drive a motorcycle as fast as possible on the track without hitting other bikes or skidding off the road; the player receives 10 points per second at the slowest speed and 10 points per half-second at top speed. Passing 1000 kilometers activates extended play. The game is controlled with a motorcycle handlebar interface; players twist to throttle the engine and crashes causes force feedback on the handlebars. Sound in the game is controlled by a tape deck.
This game is the same as Man T.T. and Fonz; the only difference is in the branding of the Fonz character. It is also similar to Road Race, but with motorbikes rather than cars. Sega had previously produced an electro-mechanical motorbike game, Night Rider (1970).
Interestingly the flyer intended for North America has two pinball tables, Explorer (1974) and Rodeo (1976) in the background. Neither table is thought to have been released outside of Japan.
