Out Run

Out Run is a 1986 arcade video game developed by Sega R&D1 and released by Sega Enterprises Inc. in the USA on November 1, 1986. The player controls a Ferrari Testarossa convertible from a third-person rear perspective. The camera is placed near the ground, simulating a Ferrari driver's position and limiting the player's view into the distance. The road curves, crests, and dips, which increases the challenge by obscuring upcoming obstacles such as traffic that the player must avoid. The object of the game is to reach the finish line against a timer. The game world is divided into multiple stages that each ends in a checkpoint, and reaching the end of a stage provides more time. Near the end of each stage, the track forks to give the player a choice of routes leading to five final destinations. The destinations represent different difficulty levels and each concludes with its own ending scene, among them the Ferrari breaking down or being presented a trophy.
