Game IntroductionPlayers choose to be one of two different characters: Lucky, who is always dressed in fashionable suits and does both driving and shooting; and Wild, who is a wild and crazy guy who only shoots. The object of the game is to help the two heroes capture five wanted suspects in five rounds of high-speed chases.Game PlayAs you pursue the suspect while driving along in each round, you must fire continuously at other enemy cars with gunmen in them. You must shoot the gunmen as well as the cars. You also must shoot any projectiles and obstacles that get in your way.When you have finally caught up with the suspect, you must continuously fire upon his vehicle until the stamina runs out. If you destroy the suspect's vehicle, you will have captured him and you will receive a reward, but if time runs out in that round, the suspect will escape. Between each round, there will be an intermission where Lucky and Wild will go to the Pink Cats Garage where they will have their car repaired for the next round as well as meet young women clad in pink bikinis with cat's tails and cat's ears on their heads. The game ends when all five rounds have been cleared, regardless of whether all five suspects have been captured or not.
