Quest For Tires

arcade game for Commodore 64, 1984

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Use Control Port 2.

Can Thor save Cute Chick from the hungry dinosaur? Only you can help. At first
he only has to jump rocks and holes. Then comes the river. The only way Thor
can get across, is to hop on the turtles backs. These turtles sometimes get
tired and submerge at the wrong moment, much to Thor's dismay! If Thor's
timing is good, the Dooky Bird will help him over the lava pit. If he jumps
the pit just when Dooky Bird is overhead, that prehistoric bird will pick him
up and carry him across! Once over the cliff, Thor faces his most difficult
challenge: the volcanic eruption. In addition to the obstades on the ground,
he is showered with boulders from the sky. Then once again, Thor must cross
the river on the turtles backs. If Thor can get past Fat Broad and into the
cave, he has only a short distance to go to rescue Cute Chick. On his way,
Thor must duck under stalactites to avoid crashing. If Thor is lucky, the
Dinosaur will be out wreaking havoc on the countryside. Thor is pretty brave,
but not really a match for him. If Thor does crash, don't worry: he has four
wheels. But true love is calling him, so use all your agility and cunning to
help him rescue Cute Chick!
