Play Action SuperCross Online

Action SuperCross came out in 1997 as part of the MS-DOS Classic Games collection, a time when side-scrolling motocross games were finding their footing on home computers. It was developed by a small team, and while not a household name, it offered a straightforward take on the genre without much fuss. You controlled a dirt bike rider, navigating obstacle-filled courses with an emphasis on quick reflexes and careful timing.

You guide your rider through a series of side-scrolling tracks, leaning forward or back to maintain balance and avoid crashing. The main goal is to reach the finish line as quickly as possible while collecting apples scattered along the route for extra points. Signature mechanics include timing your jumps to clear gaps and obstacles, as well as managing your speed to handle sharp turns without wiping out. The pacing is fast, and the difficulty ramps up quickly, demanding precise input to avoid constant spills. It feels satisfying when you finally nail a tricky section after several attempts.

Each game uses different controls, most DOS games use the keyboard arrows. Some will use the mouse , "Alt" ,"Enter" and "Space bar".
