Gameplay
Screenshot of the arcade version.
Rally Bike is a bird's eye viewed motorcycle road racing game, where the player controls a motorcycle and must cross the finish line before an established number of competitor bikes. Fuel is a major obstacle, as running out of it results in game over. Any accident will cause great reduction of fuel, and stopping to refuel will cause competitor bikes to take advantage. Competitors never run out of fuel.
U.S. front cover of NES package.Rally Bike was later ported and published in Japan by Visco on June 15, 1990, while being published in North America by Romstar in September the same year.
Polystar released a limited-edition soundtrack album of the game music (composed by Ree Ohta) in 1989 (Tatsujin : Toaplan Game Music Scene One - H24X-10005)
