What's New -= -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Version 1.0 (1/30/08): The first version of this FAQ. ***************************************************************************** -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= -= 2. Introduction -= -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= As you would expect from a game called Monster Truck Rally, there are monster trucks (actually, just one) and numerous events to partake in. Honestly, this game's controls are horrible, the computer-controlled player always wins, and many of the game modes are just terrible. I would actually recommend you stay away from this title, as you clearly aren't missing a thing here! ***************************************************************************** -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= -= 3. Controls -= -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Control Pad: Steer truck, move cursor on menu screens Start: Pause/resume game A: Accelerate (hold button to keep moving) B: Brake, drive in reverse (hold button) ***************************************************************************** -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= -= 4. Game Modes -= -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= ============ Monster Menu ============ After you get past the title screen, you will be on this menu screen. Here you can tweak the various settings, pick an event to participate in, create your own track or generate a random one, and race in the event you selected. The various settings you can mess with are straightforward and require no further explanation. The individual events will be detailed in the next part. =========== Game Events =========== Hill Climb: In this mode, you race on a track comprised mainly of steep hills, which you accelerate upon rather slowly. Drag Race: As the name implies, you drag race against another truck down a long straightaway. Bog: You race on a track with numerous watery bogs throughout its path. The bogs will slow you down significantly when driven through, which makes this quite annoying. Car Crush: In this mode, you race up and down straight pathways, driving over rows of cars that are lined up in true monster truck fashion. Tug-O-War: Your truck and your opponent's are tied together, facing opposite directions, and you must tug the other across the line in the middle. The game gives you WAY too much room for this event, so it may take a while to beat. Sled Pull: In this mode, you drive along a straight path while pulling a weighted sled. As you progress, more weight is added, slowing you down significantly until you can no longer proceed. Draw Bridge: On this course, you will have to deal with drawbridges that go up and down. If the bridge is down, you can race across; if it is up, you have to wait until it comes back down to continue. Donuts: Simply put, you race around a small donut-shaped track against your opponent. Custom Track: You get to race on the track you created (if any) in this mode. Combo Course: This is the ultimate event, where you have to race on a track with a little bit of everything included within. Monster Truck Rally: If you select this event, you will play every single event in order, starting with Hill Climb. ***************************************************************************** -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= -= 5.
