Chase HQ

Woah! The heat is on! This is one offering that kept the ACU crew away from their desks for a long, long time when it came out on the full price label.

Fortunately, none of the non-stop action and highspeed chase excitement has been lost during the porting over to the budget label so that, what you have here, is a totally brilliant offering that is guaranteed to have you drooling over your keyboard from the very start.

As members of the elite SCI (Special Criminal Investigation) squad, your task is to chase and apprehend high speeding perps in your supercharged Porsche 928.

Chase H.Q.

As soon as Nancy at HQ delivers the message, get your wheels screeching and head off on the hunt. In all, you have sixty seconds to catch each of the perpetrators and then another sixty to ram them off the road.

That's right, the only way to stop the perps is to demolish their vehicle, so get to it. Every time you ram the vehicle, the damage points mount up and, if you manage to hit them enough times within the limit, you've done the job.

Look out for other traffic on the roads, as they'll only slow you down and make good use of your limited turbo blasts to narrow the distance between yourself and the criminals.

Chase H.Q.

Chase HQ has got to be one of the best driving games of all time. As a one or two player offering, the gameplay is totally out of this world, not to mention completely gripping.

Remember, practice makes perfect. You're certainly not going to wipe up on your first attempt but, oh yes, you're going to keep coming back for more until you do.

Excellent graphics, neat crash sound effects and an absolute joy to play. Get it!
