Is it still worth playing?

You drive a blue Formula One car through a maze that scrolls in the four cardinal directions, collecting yellow flags while red cars chase it, in this 1980 arcade maze game. Boulders block some paths and harm the player, and the maze has dead ends and long corridors. Each level has ten flags that are worth more points when collected in succession. One of them is a Special Flag marked with an S that doubles the value of each flag collected after it. Smoke screens stun the red cars temporarily and use up part of the fuel meter on the right of the screen. The meter keeps dropping the longer a level takes, so it acts as a timer. More red cars are added as the game goes on. A scrolling maze with smoke screens is a game that is still worth a try.
