How it plays
How does Route 16 play?
Drive through the room maze, collect all money bags, avoid enemy cars and fuel loss, and use the overworld map to plan the next room. The route is not just a race: the player must balance exploration, map information, and the limited fuel supply before returning to a safe route.
Plan your run
What is the best way to play Route 16?
Use the overworld map to choose the next room, collect nearby money before crossing an enemy lane, and leave enough fuel for the return route. Treat Route 16 as its own ROM target because a bootleg or alternate set can change maze data, text, or collision timing.
