This is a stunt-racing game in which players ride motorcycles through obstacle courses around a variety of settings.

Other levels contain hazards or end sequences in which the rider can be flung into chasms, electrocuted, run over by a train, or crushed by cars or machinery. Riders are frequently heard screaming during these sequences. In one stage, players launch the rider as far as possible through the use of explosives; the explosives violently launch the Rider, who briefly catches fire and screams.
