Trax: The Robot Wars is an advanced game of bumper cars. You control a car in
an arena with 1-3 opponent cars controlled by the computer or other humans
where an all-out competition ensues to be the last car in the arena. A car
loses when it is pushed out of the ring, sustains too much damage, or
encounters other hazards in particular arenas. Prize money is awarded for
achieving various goals and this can be used towards assorted offensive or
defensive upgrades.

There are 3 play modes: The first mode is the single player Ascent mode where
the player battles their way up through 11 one-on-one arena battles. The
Battle mode pits up to 4 players against each other. Each player is given
$5000 at the start of the competition to spend on upgrades (even the computer
players get to upgrade their cars). The Battle mode is played a certain number
of rounds, configurable in the game options. The final mode is Tournament,
similar to Battle except that the players play 3 rounds and then take a break
to spend their prize money upgrading their cars.
