Spy Hunter is an action/driving game with the
player in the role of a spy driving an armed sportscar. The object of
the game is to travel the freeway destroying as many enemy vehicles
as possible while protecting civilian vehicles.
The game is a top-down vertical scroller with a vantage point
similar to that of a news helicopter. The game begins with the
player driving the fictitious G-6155 Interceptor.
Enemy vehicles try to destroy the player's car or to force it off
the road.Points are scored for distance traveled (a counter increments
the score while the car is moving) and for destroying enemy vehicles.
There is an initial lead-in time during which the player has
an unlimited supply of cars. After the lead-in time expires
the player must earn extra cars by obtaining high scores.
The first extra car is generally earned at a default value of 30,000
points, but this value can vary depending on settings for a given machine.
Up to 3 additional cars are awarded at similar increments.
