Road Rash is a seminal 1992 motorcycle combat racing game developed by Electronic Arts for the Sega Genesis. It pioneered a gritty take on arcade racing where finishing first requires not just high-speed maneuvering through oncoming traffic, but actively fighting off rival bikers with fists, boots, and stolen weapons.
How to Play
Win races across five increasingly difficult California routes to earn cash for faster, more durable bikes. Using the default browser controls, steer with the Arrow Keys, accelerate with X, brake with Z, and attack with C. Use the D-pad in combination with the attack button to kick opponents into oncoming traffic or physical hazards.
Tips
- Steal weapons: You can snatch a club from an opponent by timing a punch just as they try to swing at you.
- Mind your bike health: Every crash damages your motorcycle. If its condition bar empties completely, you are wrecked and the race is over.
- Watch for cops: If you crash near a police officer, you will be busted and forced to pay a hefty fine. Keep moving when the siren wails!
