Gameplay
BMX Simulator is an overhead race game similar to Super Sprint. The player must race against another player, or the computer, around a series of seven different bicycle motocross (BMX) tracks. There is also a time limit to be beaten. Only two cyclists can compete in each race. The race can be viewed in slow-motion action replay afterwards.
Reception
"Each course looks like a bombsite, scattered bits of tyre, ramps, large or deep puddles and - on the most complex courses - arrows raked into the dirt which point directions. Hills around the course slow speeding bikes down and allow riders to change direction quickly... a classy conversion from the Commodore original."
ZX Computing said it was "fun from start ot finish, and rated it a Monster Hit. Sinclair User said it was a "full price game in budget clothing".
