Metro-Cross Nintendo

Metro-Cross is an early (1985) Namco Arcade game that was eventually ported to the Famicom and computers such as the C64 and Atari ST.

The player is a contestant on the eponymous futuristic game show Metro Cross. In order to win, the player must run along an obstacle course, jumping over giant soda cans and hurdles, as well as avoiding green tiles that will slow them down. Every level has a very strict amount of time to finish with, but whatever time is left over from their first three rounds will carry on to the fourth.
