'''Dirt Fox''' is a {{c|racing}} arcade game that was released by [[Namco]] in [[1989]] only in Japan. It runs on Namco System 2 hardware, and allows up to four players to play simultaneously when four cabinets are linked together (much like Namco's own [[Final Lap]], which was released two years earlier, allows up to eight players to play simultaneously when four two-player cabinets are linked together). The gameplay is similar to that of [[Data East]]'s [[Burnin' Rubber]] and [[Midway Games|Bally Midway]]'s [[Spy Hunter]], onnly without the jumping and shooting that both of those driving games involve. | |||

Each of the players must take control of a colour-coded car (red for Player 1, green for Player 2, blue for Player 3 and yellow for Player 4) which is competing in an off-road race. They are given a preset amount of time in which to complete each of the track's seven sections, and for each section of track that is successfully completed, the players' time is extended. However, if one of the players does not manage to successfully complete his current section of the track before his time runs out, his game will instantly be over and the race continues without him. | |||
