Player's Review

"THE OFFICIAL HOME VERSION OF BALLY MIDWAY’S 1st ARCADE HIT
USE WITH JOYSTICK or KEYBOARD. You control the turbo charged race car/hydro spy boat. You control a deadly arsenal of missiles, machine guns, oil slicks and smoke screens. Sophisticated spy-challenging graphics. Multiple nerve-shattering spy-action screens. This is hardly a game. It’s a high-speed test of your secret agent skills. Meet the challenge and survive Spy Hunter!"

This was a game I enjoyed on the Spectrum, not so much on the C64. Cars flying around and to easy to crash into things. Overall looks like quite a basic interpretation of the arcade game. The game is an endless score attack but I survive long enough to show all areas before it loops round again. Not much else I can say about it. I quite like the two vehicle mechanic of the game as well as the riding into the back of the lorry , Knight Rider style which makes the game memorable.
