Fast Freddie Screen Shot
Take off on a fantastic video trip. A voyage that simulates the thrills and skills of
actual Hang Gliding. Players use the joystick to control Fast Freddie, but good timing
and strategy is necessary to successfully negotiate invisible air currents, wind direction
and up and down drafts. Fast Freddie has incredible visual impact. Freddie flies the skies
over the Alps over trains, trees, bridges, through winter and summer seasons; over the Pacific -
over Egypt - camels, Pyramids, the Taj Mahal, the Sphinx, through day and night landscapes.
It's a complete global challenge with non-stop action over a continuously changing panorama
below.
Kick objects out of the sky with the kick button and avoid aircraft, helicopters, birds and
even a genie on a flying carpet. Swoop low to pick up lettered flags to spell bonus in sequence
for extra points. There is a landing pad a the end of each round which Fast Freddie has 10
seconds to touch down on to go to the next level.
