A simple and addictive game, that’s the winning formula that was used with so many classics, and this (although not really well known) would really fall into this category.
Zona 0 is a game made by the Spanish company Topo Soft and features you riding a fast bike leaving a trail behind your motorcycle. With the trail you leave behind you cut off the competition. If you collide with another cycle, with a wall, drive off the platform, or crash into a trail (of either your or another’s) you will loose a life.
The trick is to cut off the opponents while having enough space to maneuver around until the other riders crash (they can’t stop).
The color is very nice (you get to choose between different modes, but I suggest the VGA mode). There is however a little glitch, so every now and again you may see another cycle for a split second, but it’s just a phantom image of what shouldn’t be there.
The sound isn’t anything special, so there’s not much to say about it. It does the job of supporting the game. But the addictiveness of the game doesn’t really need a sound supporting it. If you really want impressive sound, check the INTRO file.
You can redefine the keys to your will (and I suggest you do so, just remember, you’re only able to move in diagonals).
All in all, this is a great little time waster, unfortunately you’ll always have to start from the beginning, as the game offers no type of saving or level passwords. That’s also the only reason I’m not giving it a perfect score.
