There it is!
Gaaaah. That’s what I wanted to say originally and then talked myself out of it! I only knew the game from some detailed screenshots but each was a little sparse (at least in my head).

What’s strange is how I remember this stuff from over 30 years ago!

Yep. I did wonder if having the barrel also in the image would make it too easy. Now I know!

Correct..! It's from the third screen, which is about as far as I can get in this game :lol:

Sure!

In game. Reviewed by the big three.

I'm picturing that as a countdown to the start of a race.

But it might not be.

Well, me too -- and I think we're meant to fall into an Enduro Racer-shaped trap. But that starts at 3, so...

No.

Not a driving game either.

There's a joke there somewhere.

In-game.

That 4 is one of the first things you see in gameplay but I imagine not too many people bothered with this game as it was pretty average in terms of reviews from the big three and it's a genre the Speccy doesn't really excel at. Playing it now, it's fairly rubbish.

All I can think of is Tracey Island and Thunderbird 4, which is phenomenally wrong (as these colours belong to Thunderbird 2).
