Track Attack!

Track Attack! is a single player side scrolling arcade style game that
involves cars, trains and thieves.

As the player, you are allowed 3 lives, and drive a specially rigged car that
is designed to be able to smash through rolling freight cars in a train in
order to make off with gold bars, and deposit them one at a time into a secret
deposit yard nearby, gaining points for each bar. There is a watchman who
drives a ’52 DeSoto automobile patrolling for thieves, and another phantom car
that occasionally raids the player’s stash of hidden gold. When this occurs,
you, the player, need to drop off your gold, chase down the raider and smash
into his empty car to regain back your gold bar. If you are not successful
your point count drops by 100 points. When you play this version, you can gain
up to 128 pieces of gold in your holding area.

There are 2 other levels that can be played. To start any of the 3, you must
first steal at least one gold bar.

In the second level, you must position your car alongside the train, and jump
from your car onto the top of the train, and make your way on foot the length
of the train to the engine. If you miss any jump, you will fall beneath the
wheels of the train. In that event you will lose one life, all your
accumulated gold, and be required to go back to level one. If you successfully
make your way as far as the engine, you will be able to proceed to level 3.

In level 3 you are in control of the train, and you must find, track down and
run over eleven gold bars that are scattered over the railway tracks.If you
run over all eleven bars you will gain another life. The watchman in his
DeSoto will be trying to interfere with this and he must be avoided, and if
you collide with the raider’s phantom car, you will lose a life, and be
returned to level 1 with a score of 0.

You will be awarded spare lives when you gather: (1).5,000, 10,000, 20,000,
40,000 or 80,000 points, (2).Remove all the gold from the train in level 1, or
(3). run over all eleven gold bars in level 3.
