If you grew up playing games like Tokyo Xtreme Racer, Need for Speed Underground, Wangan Midnight, and the like, you’ll feel right at home in the driver’s seat of a souped-up sports car in Night-Runner.

You can play through the meaty prologue for free on Steam, and according to thousands of reviews praising its immaculate throwback atmosphere, extensive vehicle customization, bangin’ soundtrack, and tight gameplay, you probably should if you’re at all a fan of the genre.
