Game of the Day - Rail Chase


Rail Chase is a first-person Cross-Hair Shooter that is total chaos.  It's like a cross between the scene in Indy Jones and the Temple of Doom where they are in the mine carts and a first person roller coaster ride.  The graphics are cool (especially the snow) and the action is completely non-stop (and sometimes a little hard to follow).  The original game had an analog joystick, so you need one or a trackball.  Playing with an 8-way joystick is very difficult.  Let me know if you play it.

  1. So I tried a few lightgun shooters, like the Area 51 CHD and the recommended Terminator 2. Not very impressed, the low-res 'photorealism' doesn't quite work (for me). This gem however is a thing of beauty; love the non-stop 2D sprite explosions. The mine-cart-ride is a great theme too. Thanks for recommending!

    As with most analogue controlled games the Apple Magic Trackpad works perfectly, it's a bit less 'PC' than a mouse I guess.
