Game Guide
Extracted from the original game manual
This is an action-driving game where players assume the role of an undercover cop infiltrating a crime syndicate. You'll complete driving-based missions across three cities to expose the true intentions of the Castaldi family.
Story
The Story
You play Tanner, a maverick cop who hands in his badge to go undercover and take on the kingpin of crime - Castaldi.
Tanner is called to the police chief's office in New York and given instructions to head for Miami and meet with a contact named Rufus. After a tip-off following his arrival in Miami, Tanner meets with a number of seedy gangsters at an underground parking garage.
He gets one attempt to get a job with the mob by proving his skills behind the wheel, to take over as their lead getaway driver. He passes the initiation.
From Miami, to LA and back to New York, this is a tough job for a hard driver. Through three cities, you have to uncover the true intentions behind the ever-increasing power and influence of the Castaldi family.

How to Play
GETTING STARTED
After viewing the title screens, you'll see a demo of the game while the credits roll. Press the A Button during the demo to return to the Main Menu.
If you can't wait to hit the streets, select Undercover or Take A Ride from the Main Menu. You'll be screaming down the road in no time.
From the Main Menu you can also select Language, Driving Games, Options, and Best Times. The Main Menu selections are all described in more detail right after the "On The Road" section of this manual.
ON THE ROAD
When you're behind the wheel, these items show your progress, position, and status:
•
1. Location Arrow
This red arrow points to your current objective, the place where you need to be. As you move around the city the arrow will move, letting you know your position in relation to the objective.
Remember that you can't just drive in the exact direction the arrow is pointing; you'll have to drive around buildings and other obstacles. The arrow just points to your next destination "as the crow flies."
•
2. Damage
Every time you hit a wall, vehicle, tree or other stationary object, your car takes some damage. The severity of the damage depends on the severity of the crash. Once the damage bar reaches full, your car is wrecked and the mission (or driving game) is over.
The damage meter for other cars (for example, the target car in the Pursuit game) is located in the top right corner of the main game screen. This meter only counts damage inflicted by direct hits from your car.
•
3. Timer
The timer at the bottom center of the screen indicates your current mission time. On many occasions this will count down and you'll have to reach your next objective in the allocated time for your mission to be a success.
At other times you'll need to get the car and its occupant to a location, without a police tail. If this is the case, the counter will count up.
•
4. Felony
Your Felony bar increases when you commit a crime in view of a cop. Once the cop chase ensues his aggression level will increase in line with your rising felony rating if you continue to commit crimes in full view of the law.
The major felonies are:
•
Aiding & abetting - Assisting the gateway of known bank robbers, felons, and other such rapscallions.
•
Wanton destruction of property - Destroying or crashing into any public or private property, including café tables, construction barricades, citizens' vehicles and cop cars.
CITY MAP
Pressing Start brings up the City Map. From here you can see a full layout of the city's roads. Simply use the Control Pad to scroll around the map.
The flashing square shows where you are, and the flashing circle shows where you want to go. The main use for this map is to check your position and to find way-points, pick-up points, drop-off points, etc.
You can also quit a mission while viewing the City Map by pressing the A Button.
UNDERCOVER
New Game
Selecting New Game will begin your new undercover life. Starting in Miami, you'll progress through missions that will take you to Los Angeles and then on to New York.
To quit a mission and return to the Main Menu, press Start to open the City Map, then press the A Button.
CONTINUE GAME
This enters the Password screen. From here you can enter passwords (made up of four squares containing special Driver symbols), which you receive at the beginning of each new mission.
•
Up and Down on the Control Pad change the symbol in a square.
•
Left and Right on the Control Pad change squares.
•
The arrow on the left side of the screen returns you to the previous menu.
•
The arrow on the right enters the code.
Once you've loaded your game you'll be taken to the start of that code's mission.
LANGUAGE
To select what language you want the game to use, highlight the white flag using the Control Pad and press Start or A Button. Simply move the cursor onto the desired language and press Start or A Button to choose it and return to the Main Menu.
DRIVING GAMES
You can try any of the driving games in this menu. When you select a game, you will then be asked which city you would like to play. You can only play in cities you've visited in Undercover mode.
CROSS-TOWN CHECKPOINT
Select the city you want to race across. Once the game starts you'll have to race from checkpoint to checkpoint in the fastest time possible. The waypoints are detailed on the city map, but you'll also have an arrow on-screen pointing you in the right direction.
Once you successfully reach the first flag a second will be shown on the map, and so on until you complete the level. The faster the time, the better. There are two checkpoint games in each city.
GETAWAY
At the start of each Getaway game a cop is on your tail immediately. You must lose him by any means necessary. The quicker you lose the cop, the better. There are two Getaway games in each city.
PURSUIT
Choose the city you want to drive in. Once you start you'll have to chase the lead car as it tries to out-maneuver, out-brake, and out-wit you across the streets, parks and alleyways.
SURVIVAL
How long can you survive against a barrage of veteran cops
Tips & Maps
Use your map
At the beginning of each mission, use the map to find the fastest path to your objective, which is marked by a flashing circle.
Drive crazy to lose a cop
Weave through obstacles, drive on the wrong side of the road, and make sharp turns to make the pursuing cop crash.
Don't slow down when you get to an objective
You will automatically stop when you hit the flashing red X marking your objective, regardless of your speed.
Drive around cops when they try to get in your way
If a cop tries to block your path, simply drive around the back of their car without slowing down.
Stay to the right to avoid oncoming cops
To avoid being rammed by oncoming cops, stay as close to the right side of the road as possible.
