Get behind the wheel of K.I.T.T. in this 1988 NES driving combat game based on the hit TV show, published by Acclaim Entertainment. Instead of a standard racing game, Knight Rider puts you on a cross-country mission where you must shoot down enemy vehicles, dodge obstacles, and outrun the clock. It combines high-speed driving with action elements as you manage your limited shields and weapons.
How to play
Your objective is to complete each mission leg before time runs out while surviving enemy fire and boss encounters. The controls for the browser emulator are mapped to the keyboard:
- Steer: Arrow Keys (Left / Right)
- Accelerate / Brake: Arrow Keys (Up / Down)
- Fire Weapon (A): X
- Jump (B): Z
- Select / Start: Shift / Enter
Tips
K.I.T.T. has a jump ability (B button) which is crucial for dodging roadblocks and avoiding enemy fire when your shields are low. Keep an eye on your radar to anticipate incoming enemy vehicles, and upgrade your weapons and shields between stages to keep up with the increasing difficulty.
