Chequered Flag Japan is a classic Formula One racing game released for the Arcade in 1988. This fast-paced racer puts you behind the wheel of a high-speed F1 car, challenging you to weave through traffic, master tight corners, and beat the ticking timer. With its smooth pseudo-3D scaling graphics and demanding time-limit mechanics, it remains a fantastic example of late-80s arcade racing.
How to Play
The objective is to complete the race course before your time limit expires. Checkpoints along the track will extend your time, so keep your speed high and avoid collisions with other racers or trackside hazards.
- Insert Coin: 5
- Start: 1
- Steer: Left / Right Arrow Keys
- Accelerate / Brake: Z / X
Tips
- Maintain momentum: Avoiding crashes is more important than going top speed at all times. A collision will cost you valuable seconds as you accelerate back up to speed.
- Watch the corners: Anticipate tight turns by tapping the brake or easing off the accelerator to maintain control rather than sliding off the track.
