Overlander
Overlander sees Elite attempt a Roadblasters style driving game with shooting
overtones, with the action viewed from behind your armour-plated well-armed
car. It all takes place in a post-apocalyptic universe in which a lot of money
can be earned by transporting goods form place to place, but the large gangs
of Overlanders who already do this are keen to stop you.
Two missions are on offer at a time, one tougher but more lucrative than the
other, with half the money paid upfront and the other half on successful
completion. Before setting off, you can buy upgrades such as turbo chargers,
armour and enhanced weapons, each of which has a limited lifespan. Attacks
from other vehicles can come either from guns or attempting ramming, and the
roads are poorly-maintained and hazardous, so be careful, or better yet be
violent first.
