Side-view stunt racing with 24 courses and a custom course designer
The briefing
Kikstart II is a side-view racing game based on the Kikstart TV show. Players navigate courses filled with hazards, including steps to jump over, tyres and hedges to drive through, and mud that slows progress.
The game includes 24 courses. Players can select a set of five courses to race or allow the computer to choose a random selection. A course designer also lets players create their own tracks with control over hazard placement.
Released in 1986 and published by Mastertronic, Kikstart II was available for Amiga, Amstrad CPC, and Commodore C64/128/MAX.
