Stunt Driver (also known as Crash Course in some European releases) is a polygonal racing game released for MS-DOS in 1990. It has a feature set similar to Brøderbund's Stunts published the same year, including a track editor, and both games have much in common with Hard Drivin', the Atari Games 3D stunt driving simulator released in February 1989.

Gameplay

edit
 
Approaching the loop

Stunt Driver allows the user to create a racetrack from components such as draw-bridges, banked curves, oil slicks, water hazards, and loops, then race on them alone, against computer-controlled opponents, or against another user via a modem or null-modem connection. It allows viewing and editing of replays using different cameras, another feature shared with Stunts.

Reception

edit

Computer Gaming World praised Stunt Driver's game play and performance, sound card audio, and extensive customization options, and stated that it was a good computer counterpart to Atari's Hard Drivin' arcade game.[1]
