- a no-holds-barred rumble where the only rule is anything goes! Each of the
- kingdoms sends it`s bravest driver to compete against the ruthless Count
- Chaos, reigning champion and winner of all previous Bump N Burn
- tournaments. He will stop at nothing to retain his unbeaten record.

- Will you join the ranks of failed challengers or can you dethrone Count
- Chaos?
- Speed to succeed!

- A2000 Amiga`s. 1 Megabyte of memory is required, if your Amiga has 1
- Megabyte of CHIP memory (as found on 500+, 600 and 1200 machines), extra

- THE MAP
-
- You may choose the order in which you tackle each area of Toonia. You must
- complete all areas to finish the game.
-
- THE WAR TORN CITY - The home of Colonel Carnage, tanks trundle across the
- road and aircraft drop bombs overhead. Huge craters scar the landscape and
- barbed wire fences block the lanes. Above all, avoid the Mines!.
-
- THE RACE TRACK - Built for speed, this is the domain of Mr. Fabulous. An
- ideal test-bed for vehicle handling, the track has vast banked curves
- filled with extra weaponry.
-
- THE FROZEN FJORDS - Eric the Eskimo will feel at home here. Snowballs roll
- down the road, hopping penguins latch onto your car and patches of ice make
- the going very slippery indeed!.
-
- THE FALLEN FOREST - Trees lie on the road and old cranes swing wildly out
- of control. The narrow bridges make river crossing perilous. The Buck
- Tooth Beaver Bros` should enjoy the advantage here.
-
- THE HAUNTED GRAVEYARD - Frank N Steiner come from this part of Toonia.
- Apart from the various ghouls and spectres, players must avoid the pagan
- pumpkins and pools of gipper. Make sure you bring a pair of thick brown
- trousers.
-
- CANDYWORLD - The coolest colour scheme in Toonia awaits visitors to Loretta
- Lamour`s home town. Hairdryers blow you off course, fizzy bottle tops are
- fired from all angles and bouncy popcorn try to halt your progress.
-
- THE VOLCANO - Home of the Dodgy Dino`s, the Volcano is highly active.
- Watch out for flying fireballs spewed from the Volcano`s fiery innards.
- Prehistoric birds will try to pick up the unwary racer and drop them off
- the mountain. Rickety bridges cross deep chasms, so don`t fall off!
-
-

- HINTS AND TIPS
-
- 1. Use every devious, underhand and downright dodgy tactic that you can
- (remember, it`s not cheating!!)
-
- 2. Remember that shot weapons must be activated by pulling back on the
- joystick, then fired by pushing forward.
-
- 3. If captured by Prehistoric Birds, Ghost, Penguins or UFO`s, wiggle the
- joystick left and right to escape.
-
- 4. If you fail to finish in the top four positions at the end of the race
- and have to use a credit to continue, one section will be knocked off all
- your upgrades.
-
- 5. Beating the lap record earns extra cash!
-
- 6. If you see any flags on the course, collect them!
-
- 7. Make good use of the radar! It is extremely useful for stopping pursuing
- drivers.
-
- 8. Get close to the car in front and slipstream past.
