STUN Runner is PC conversion of Atari’s excellent futuristic arcade racing game from 1989, a mixture of rollercoaster racing, bobsled and a shoot’em up game. The game uses polygonal 3D graphics which are fairly fast but sadly not very smooth. The game is quite fun and very challenging as you almost always have to take a perfect route over the extras to stay in the time limit. Not an arcade perfect conversion, but above average considering its time. Not as innovative or offering as much longevity as other futuristic racing classics (e.g. Powerdrome), but still way ahead of most others in that period.
