Offroad Thunder

About

Offroad Thunder is a high-speed racing game set on dirt tracks and rugged terrain. Players choose from a roster of 32 vehicles including trucks and ATVs to battle for top spots. The arcade-style handling prioritizes action over realism with simple controls and explosive jumps. Split-screen mode lets two players compete directly on the same machine while single-player events test skills across varied off-road challenges. The game's split-screen mode was a hit in arcades offering tight local multiplayer before online became standard. With 40 tracks and customizable vehicles it provided solid replay value for its time. Though not as well known as Midway's later titles it still has a cult following among arcade racing fans. Community forums note its aggressive collision physics and how it aged well compared to other late 90s racers.
