Hyperchase is a racing game for the Vectrex console, released in 1982. The game presents a behind-view driving perspective, with the player steering a car along a winding track. The main objective is to complete the course as quickly as possible while avoiding collisions with other vehicles and staying on the road.
The game offers different levels of challenge depending on the selected mode. In the easier setting, players can crash without limit and continue driving, while in the harder mode, the game ends after five crashes. This structure allows both beginners and experienced players to engage with the gameplay at a suitable pace.
Hyperchase supports both single-player and two-player gameplay. In the two-player option, players compete by taking turns and comparing their performance. The game was distributed on cartridge format, like other titles for the Vectrex system.
