Description

"From Kikstart 2 is a motorcycle trials racing videogame released for the Amiga, Amstrad CPC, Commodore 64 and ZX Spectrum. It enjoyed more success than its prequel, Kikstart. The game allowed 2-player simultaneous (via a split-screen facility) or 1-player, vs-computer play. It is similar in premise and execution to the (much more recent) Game Boy game "Motocross Maniacs".

The basic premise of the game is to control a bike using acceleration, braking, "hopping" and "wheelies" to navigate across a course of various obstacles, from ramps and gates to telephone boxes and tyres.

The game was based on the BBC Television series of the same name. An enhanced version was released for the Commodore 128, one of the few native mode game titles for that computer.

From the back of the game box:

"Ride your bike over the 24 all action courses in this new improved version of Kickstart. Devise your own mindbendingly tortuous test with the course designer or make things really easy - the choice is yours!""
