In the eighties it seemed impossible to surpass the playability achieved by Out Run (the best racing game at that time). Two years later after the release of Out Run, Chase HQ hit the arcades. In the game you have to pursue a vehicle driven by criminals and ram it until they stop the car. Then they are arrested. You have a time limit to reach the car driven by the criminals and a time extension to stop it. The playability of Chase HQ is far superior to the one of Out Run.

The game was ported to MSX from the amazing ZX Spectrum version. The game has nice graphics -although being almost monochrome- and a good sense of speed plus lots of details: brow of hills, car jumps, road splits, road narrows, tunnels, helicopters,... The game is slightly slower on MSX than on Spectrum but fortunately Martos released a disk version that runs on 6MHz Z80B based MSX2+ (at ideal speed) and even on MSXturboR.

Play the game!
