Head On 2
正面冲突2
Head On 2 is an action arcade game released by Sega in 1979, serving as a sequel to the original Head On. Players control a car driving along fixed tracks within a rectangular arena, collecting dots scattered across the lanes while avoiding collisions with enemy vehicles. The goal is to clear all dots from the screen without crashing. Enemy cars travel along the same track system and must be navigated around carefully. Head-on collisions end the game, requiring players to time lane changes precisely. The game uses a simple joystick or directional control scheme. Each cleared stage increases the speed and difficulty of enemy cars, keeping the challenge escalating through repeated play.
