Шаблон:Expand section As with most racing video games, the object in Checkered Flag is to complete a certain number of laps. Each lap has to be completed within the time limit. Should a player make a lap before time runs out, the clock will be significantly extended, allowing the player to make more laps.

Reception

Шаблон:Video game reviews

IGNШаблон:'s Robert A. Jung gave Checkered Flag an extremely positive review, citing it as a "masterpiece" and giving it a 10 out of 10, praised the game for its tight controls, map designs and variety and good camera angle.[2] In RazeШаблон:'s final issue published in October 1991, their Atari Attack segment also looked at Checkered Flag, giving a score of 86%.[3] Conversely, French magazine Consoles + gave a score of 45%, criticizing the difficulty in getting back to the race after being spun from striking a car, as well as the minimal effect upon contacting obstacles.[4]

Entertainment Weekly picked the game as the #7 greatest game available in 1991, saying: "This all-frills racing game (side-and rearview mirrors, manual and automatic transmissions, a digitized voice that booms 'Gentlemen, start your engines') makes the grade for its ability to accommodate up to six players at a time, provided that each brings along his or her own hand-held Lynx equipment."[5]
