Notes
Published in the book 21 Games For The BBC Micro by Mike James, S. M. Gee and Kay Ewbank, published by Granada Publishing Ltd. The book contains the following description:
In this game you have to steer your blue bobsleigh down a random course that winds its way past fir trees. You can choose whether to try a course that is easy to manoeuvre or one that is difficult. (There are actually five levels of difficulty which govern the width of the course.) If you crash you’ll hear a dismal tone and that round of the game is over. Play this game to see how adept you are at keeping on course.
How to play
The bobsleigh starts off at the top of the course and the course automatically moves past it. You have to steer the bobsleigh using the right and left arrow keys to ensure that you do not crash into the edges of the course. At the beginning of the game you have to select the difficulty level for the game. This governs the width of the course with 1 producing the widest, and therefore easiest, and 5 the narrowest, and most difficult.
