Super Cars

About

Super Cars is a top-down racing game with a twist of combat and customization. You race on 9 tracks across 4 difficulty tiers, each offering varied layouts and challenges. Win cash to buy upgrades like speed boosts, armor, and missiles to disable rivals. Progress requires placing in the top three, with each race adding more AI opponents. The car's performance evolves through a shop system where dialogue choices can lower prices on parts. The game’s blend of racing strategy and negotiation stands out. Players must balance spending on upgrades while navigating increasingly tough races. With roots in Gremlin’s early 90s catalog, it feels raw and unpolished but rewards persistence. The Atari ST and C64 versions especially highlight its retro charm. For those digging into vintage arcade-style gameplay, it’s a niche but memorable pick.
