Hard Drivin'

Hard Drivin' is a 3D arcade racing game centered on driving a high-performance sports car through challenging courses. The goal is to race as quickly as possible while reaching checkpoints, which provide additional time.

Traffic travels both in the player's direction and toward them, adding danger to each run. The course is divided into a longer speed track, designed for higher speeds, and a stunt track featuring obstacles such as bridge jumps and loops.

Crashes reset the car after costing several seconds and are presented through cinematic replay angles. Home versions retain much of the arcade release's advanced 3D presentation, though they do not include its force-feedback feature.
