Brilliant and original racer! I played this for hours to complete it. This was great fun & simple. My favourite bit had to be kicking the football with a car! Bizarre!

One of the first games i played on my mates ST in 88-89 when i still had a speccy, couldn,t believe the smoothness and scrolling and graphcs, really addictive although i completed the 5 courses and again on the emumlator last year, still have a laugh with this one for pure playability. this game and summer olympiad are why i saved like f**k to buy an ST in 1990

I have lots of memories of this game. I used to play it all the time when I would come home from school back in 1989. I was six at that time and on December 10th, 1990, I had my tonsils and adnoids taken out on that day. I remember that day when I came home from the hospital and for a few days, I played this game a little bit for some entertainment while I was trying to get better. Now, today, I can play this game so well that I can get to the end of all the different rounds. A few years later, I found this game at one of arcades at Harvey's in Lake Tahoe. When I played it, I had so many flashbacks of when I used to play it on the Atari ST computer. My brother had sold his Atari ST computer at that time. I think the year was 1995 when I found it in the arcade at Harvey's. Now, the machine is no longer there. Buggy Boy is a great classic Atari ST game and very enjoyable.

This one was the one of the few I played in my 1040STfm... it was so addictive back then that I still play it, but on WinSTon. Even my 12-year-old brother likes it! :)

Loved it! The game was accidentally included in my Power pack instead of Overlander (which I really wanted) but I loved it so much I couldn't take it back to change it!

mes filles y ont joué des heures elles avaient 5 et 9 ans et toute la famille s'est fait le "volant" sur ce jeu.

I remember this game was one of the first I played on the ST (along with Xenon and Speedball) and it blew me away. Feige is right, it does have pretty much average everything other than gameplay! It's very well constructed and the difficulty progression is spot-on but you just keep coming back to this one. Aahhh.. memories.

Average grafix, average sound, average everything: but anyhow this game is really one of the best racing-games! It offers very good gameplay and is a lot of fun!

I used to play this game for hours and eventually managed to complete all 5 tracks. Really good fun and possibly better than the arcade version.

I played this one first on the C64 of a friend but I never managed to get an Atari ST version until the emu boom started.... Nice racing game without opponents - just race against the time and collect goodies. Addictive and funny to play.
