==About Cro-Mag Rally==
Originally released in 2000 by Pangea Software as a Mac-exclusive, Cro-Mag Rally became a staple for Mac users and was even bundled with some systems at the time. This is a port of the original OS 9 version of the game. It aims to provide the best way to experience CMR on today’s computers. It is an “enhanced” version insofar as it fixes bugs that may hinder the experience, and it brings in a few new features in keeping with the spirit of the original game.
In Cro-Mag Rally, you take on the role of Brog, a speed-hungry caveman racing through the Stone, Bronze, and Iron Ages. You'll pilot a variety of primitive vehicles like the Geode Cruiser, Bone Buggy, Logmobile, and even the Trojan Horse. To dominate your opponents, Brog is equipped with an array of prehistoric weapons, including Bone Bombs, Chinese Bottle Rockets, and the Heat-Seeking Homing Pigeons.
