description Road Avenger Overview
Road Avenger is a laserdisc arcade game released by Data East in 1985, built around animated car chases produced by Toei Animation. Players respond to on-screen prompts with precisely timed directional and control inputs, so its action functions as an interactive movie rather than a conventional racing simulation. It was later adapted for home systems, including the Sega CD, where it was released under the Road Avenger title.
