Overview and Gameplay
A prototype interceptor car tears through traffic-packed highways while enemy agents close in from every side. The goal is simple: survive the road, eliminate hostile vehicles, and adapt to shifting hazards across land and water sections.
The action unfolds in a continuous overhead driving route where enemy cars, helicopters, and marine threats appear without traditional stage breaks. Special service vans occasionally provide upgraded equipment, and the vehicle can switch into a boat form when reaching water areas. Scoring rewards destruction of hostile targets and long-distance survival while avoiding civilian traffic and environmental traps.
