| ==Details==
| |
| From the flyer.
| |
|
| |
| System I, and ultra-high performance, highly flexible system from Atari games.
| |
| Now featuring, Road Runner, the latest in the line of state-of-the-art products.
| |
|
| |
| Gameplay with outstanding entertainment value!
| |
|
| |
| The player portrays the Road Runner who must avoid Wile E. Coyote, and his tricks
| |
| while eating seed along the way in order to stay alive.
| |
|
| |
| In later game screen, the challenge intensifies; there are trucks to dodge, lemonade
| |
| to drink, steel shot to eat, and invisible paint to use.
| |
|
| |
| A brand new control, the Hall-effect joystick, guides both the speed and
| |
| direction of movement of the Road Runner. The Hall-effect device responds
| |
| in all directions and positions (not just the standard four or eight),
| |
| giving the player a full range of speed and movement.
| |
|
| |
| Timing the use of the hop button is critical to out-maneuver Wile E. Coyote.
| |
| The player must learn to jump over mines, oil slicks, crevices and steel shot.
| |
|
| |
| The entertainment value of Road Runner is highlighted as the player is
| |
| encouraged to take risks for a high score by picking up the piles of seeds,
| |
| teasting Wile E. Coyote (allowing him to follow closely), forcing the
| |
| coyote's plans to backfire, jumping over the mines, eating the steel shot
| |
| and drinking lemonade.
| |
|
| |
| Operator Options for Maximum earnings!
| |
|
| |
| The operator can select from four difficulty settings, four different
| |
| starting life options, four options for maximum number of lives, and
| |
| eight different options for bonus thresholds.
| |
|
| |
| All the standard, high-level System I self-test and game statistics
| |
| features are included. Special statistic features for Road runner
| |
| including a reading of the number of players who have used the
| |
| short cut (game continuation feature), the total number of bonus
| |
| lives awarded for all games and the number of players who have
| |
| achieved the maximum number of bonus lives allowed.
| |
