Route-16 (video game)
Route-16[a] is a driving maze video game released in arcades by Tehkan and Sun Electronics in 1981. The game was licensed to Centuri for distribution in the United States. It was ported to the Arcadia 2001 console. An enhanced version was released in Japan as Route-16 Turbo for the Famicom in 1985. GameplayThe player controls a car and must explore a maze divided into sixteen rooms. The player must collect all the money bags while avoiding colliding with opponents' cars or running out of fuel. Every time the player goes out of a room, a large overworld map is shown, indicating the position of every car and all the money bags.[4] There are also flags that can be driven over to invert the roles, so the player can crash the opposite cars and stop them for a few seconds, while getting bonus points. Route-16 distinguished itself from other maze games with the addition of an overworld map, showing the locations of the player, cars, and treasures.[4] LegacyRoute-16 Turbo,[b] an improved version of Route-16 for the Famicom, was published on October 4, 1985, by Sunsoft only in Japan. Route-16 Turbo added multiple difficulty levels and improved graphics and music. It is included in the 2001 PlayStation compilation Sunsoft Memorial Vol. 2. See alsoNotesReferences
