Overview
Description

San Francisco Rush: Extreme Racing delivers fast‑paced arcade racing on six regular tracks that can be played in reverse or mirrored modes, each littered with hidden keys to unlock secret vehicles. The game also features a Practice Mode for honing skills and a high‑stakes Death Race where a crash ends the run. The N64 port adds a Circuit Mode for multi‑lap challenges and a save system for fast times, circuit progress, and collected keys, providing both solo and split‑screen multiplayer fun for up to two players.

Screamer is a traditional arcade racing game that lets players choose from iconic vehicles like a Corvette and a Porsche 911. Each track can be raced in normal or backwards mode, adding a unique twist to the competition. The game culminates in a showdown against the Bullet car for the ultimate championship, offering both single‑player and multiplayer experiences on PC and Mac.
