Tranz Am is another game released too early to be reviewed in CRASH. There was however, this short snippet in issue 3 in the Spectrum Guide section.
It's post-holocaust America and the country's a barren desert with a few cities here and there where you can get fuel. Otherwise a clutch of Mad Maxalikes in deadly Black Turbos are out to kill you while you hunt the wastes looking for eight gold cups. The playing screen is only a 600th of the available area. Instruments On the left show: time taken, miles travelled, a map of the States showing cities and your location. local radar showing cups (if any) and enemies, speedo, fuel gauge, engine temperature and lives left. 8-directional movement, excellent graphics, highly playable. Joystick: Kempston. Highly recommended. Also available in ROM cartridge form for £l4.95.
