About this game
Bug Riders tries to put a new twist on the racing genre.

Instead of having a normal accelerate button, you must crop your bug to make him go faster.
But watch out, you don't want to overdo it because he will become angry and refuse to obey you.
You can pull on the reins to slow down.
The six tracks are filled with shortcuts and power-up items, such as missiles and bombs to blast away your opponents.
You must fly through as many time rings as you can to add time to the clock or you won't be able to finish the race.
About PlayStation
The original PlayStation (1994) brought CD-based gaming and 3D graphics to the mainstream, ending Nintendo's console dominance of the previous two generations. It's now firmly in "retro collecting" territory: original jewel cases with intact manuals command a real premium over disc-only copies, and several RPGs from its later years (when Sony deliberately courted the genre) are among the most expensive commonly-collected games from the era.
Gamevaro tracks Bugriders: The Race of Kings for PlayStation with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Bugriders: The Race of Kings to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This PS1 release dates back to 1998.
