Hungaroring and Rabló-Rulett cover scans
Posted by Csabo on 2008-04-08
HungaroringRabló-RulettOver 20 years ago, at the time of their release, Hungaroring and Rabló-Rulett counted as top-of-the-line commercial games on the Hungarian market. They both feature large, colorful graphics, easy controls and most importantly, engaging game play. Whether they stood the test of time, and are still worth playing is up to you to decide: fire up your favorite emulator and enjoy some nostalgic retro-gaming.

At any rate, being commercial games, they also featured cover artwork. Unfortunately our history has been such that the Hungarian commercial games always lagged behind the ones from the English and German markets. However, thanks to Lacus, we now have nice full-size cover scans for these two games for your viewing enjoyment. Big thanks to Lacus for these!
