If Road Runner misses 5 heaps of birdseed, he loses a life. The game is started by pressing the fire button in the title screen.= Road Runner follows the joystick movements.Simple but smoothly horizontally scrolling background graphics and good animation of the sprites, appropriate background music but a bit to sensitive controls and unfortunately no highscore list. some scenes from the game and a "Short-Cut". If you have to restart the game, you can get instantly to the last level in which you have failed the last time with the help of a shortcut (Short-Cut). Further obstacles appear in the shape of cars, stones, landmines, abysses, lemonade, cannons and invisible colour. Each machine destroys itself after a while and Wile stands around charred-black and smoking. But each of these tools has its disadvantages. So Wile graps a skateboard with rocket propulsion, a helicopter knapsack or a missile. At some places of the track there are machines hidden that help Wile considerably with his chase. But he has to eat birdseed regularly, which makes the advance melt away often enough. As Road Runner can run faster than Wile, this should be no problem.
In each of the 16 levels Road Runner (or respectively you) needs to reach the goal at the left border of the screen before Wile gets him. The aim is - being "Road Runner" (which is the fastest creature in the world) - to always escape the permanently hungry coyote named Wile.
Coyote by Chuck Jones, which appear in the cartoons by the Warner Bros.productions Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies. In Road Runner everything is about the two cartoon characters Road Runner and Wile E.
