Super Locomotive (Rev.A)

Navigate twisting rail lines in Sega’s Super Locomotive, released in December 1982. Two players compete simultaneously as trains racing through a maze-like environment, attempting to reach their respective destinations first. Using an eight-way joystick, you maneuver your locomotive, avoiding collisions with walls and each other while collecting items along the track. The game’s vibrant visuals are accompanied by the memorable soundtrack "Rydeen" from Yellow Magic Orchestra, creating a unique and energetic atmosphere. The gameplay focuses on precise control and strategic route planning as players contend for position within the increasingly complex network of rails. Each player controls their own train independently, adding an element of direct competition to the challenge. Programmed and designed by Mizunaga Fukumura, Super Locomotive combines driving action with maze navigation in a fast-paced experience demanding both skill and quick reflexes. Running on Zilog Z80 processors and utilizing SN76496 sound chips, this two-player arcade game offers a distinctive take on the racing genre.
