newP- rod u c ts The Dark Road Comes at You A recent hit at the M.O.A. and l .A .A.P .A. shows, Atari's new night racing attraction, Night Driver, offers many exclusive features designed to add more player challenge and profit potential. Drivers select one of three tracks, " Novice", "Pro", or "Expert," shift to first gear, step on the accelerator and roar into the night. The monitor displays a realistic twisting roadway ahead. The harder the acceleration, the faster the track comes at the player, making it harder to stay on the track without crashing. "Best" top speed and score previously achieved for each track is stored and displayed whenever any of the track-selection switch is activated. A realistic nighttime effect is achieved with "blacklight" illumination of monitor graphics, and screeching tires, crashes, and the whine of changing gears add to the realism. Special operator options include extended play when driver scores 350 points, and game time adjustable to 50, 75, 100 or 125 seconds. A switch is provided that also allows operators to change the game's tracks to a different set of three courses. Night Driver is designed with an exclusive self-test program built into the game's programming to spot check options and troubleshoot minor problems on the spot. The program tests all switches and all microprocessor and memory functions. It also reads out game option switch positions on the computer board.
