Wheels on Fire
Shareware: Prolixity
Requirements: Aga, 6MB, HD installable
After loading it up you will be greeted by some nice graphics and then you will go to the main menu. From here you are either chose to "Start a New Game" which will bring you directly into the game or you can go to "Practise that will allow you to get the feel of the car and get use to the tracks.
There are three tracks in the demo with you going up against three other competitors. Before you start you will be shown the track and given advice on what to watch out for, this can be very useful, so listen to it.
Each race course has it's own different landscape and conditions of which will have a bearing on the race. To get your car on the move wait until the lights go green and then hold the fire button to accelerate and push forward to steer your car. To break, pull the joystick back, this is very handy when going around tight bends. The key to winning the race is to stay on the track as going off the track will slow you down.
After each race depending on your race position you will be given some cash to buy improvemnets for your car. You can buy; tyres for extra grip, engines to increase your speed dramatically; a new suspension incase your other one is damaged and of course armour for the things you bash into. With these added improvements you can transform your carinto a speed machine but watch out your car could go to fast for you to cope.
This demo is really amazing with plenty of addiction, playability and lastability for everyone to enjoy.
