Superbike
超级摩托车
Superbike is an action arcade game released in 1983 by Century Electronics. Players control a motorcycle from a top-down perspective, racing along a scrolling road while avoiding obstacles and competing against traffic. The game supports two players simultaneously, allowing head-to-head competition alongside each other. Controls typically involve steering the bike left and right to navigate the road and dodge oncoming vehicles. The objective is to cover distance and score points while staying on the road and avoiding crashes. The game features a continuous scrolling track rather than discrete stages, with speed and traffic density increasing the challenge over time. As a 1983 arcade release, the cabinet was designed to attract players in busy arcade environments.
