Download Highway Hawks_Disk2 ROM – Amiga Game

Highway Hawks is one of those classic Amiga games where you're basically a road warrior with a tricked-out car. You start off with a basic ride and a pea-shooter for a weapon, but the real fun begins when you start upgrading. The goal? Survive long enough to reach the end of each level without running out of fuel or getting blown to bits.

The camera sticks behind your car, so you're always watching enemies roll up from the distance—some just trying to pass you, others gunning straight for you. I learned the hard way that trucks are both a threat and a goldmine—shoot them right, and they drop ammo. Miss, and you're down precious bullets. And those ramps? Hit them just right for a speed boost, but overshoot and you'll lose time scrambling back onto the road.

Money from finishing fast (or wrecking opponents) lets you upgrade between levels—better guns, tougher armor, or just enough fuel to scrape by. It's simple, but the tension of watching your fuel tick down while dodging attacks never gets old. Just don't expect a deep story—this is pure, chaotic highway survival.
