Overview

Test Drive II: The Duel is a racing/driving game and the follow-up to the original Test Drive. As well as following its predecessor onto home computers, Test Drive II was also released on 16-bit consoles, where they have a few additions including a third vehicle to drive.

The two (or three, if playing the console version) vehicles include a Porsche 959, a Ferrari F40 and a Lamborghini Diablo. Computer players can however import new cars with a pair of data disks: Supercars and Musclecars.

The game focuses on the same cockpit-view driving mechanics of the original, but adds more variation with the courses and a computer-controlled opponent vehicle. The goal is to reach the end of each course without getting caught by the police.
