City Connection was a moderately popular arcade game in the early 80's. In the game you take on the role of a young man who travels the world to paint the roads white to prove he was there.
Cars and Cats in City Connection
Watch out for cars, including police cars and cats, sitting on the road. This needs to be done in the future because it doesn't make much sense: some of the roads are hanging in the air, and there are also holes between parts of the road. In the first phase you will find some vertically aligned roads, but as the game progresses the phases become more varied and less symmetrical. You can also pick up oil cans and then fire them to get rid of other cars, but you can also make cars scroll off the screen to make them disappear.
The control
The controls take some getting used to. You'll have to learn exactly when to jump in order to reach the higher roads, because if you jump a little too late you'll end up on the second "space" of the road, which means you'll have to turn around and go back. You drive over the "square" at the edge of the platform, which will remain unpainted.
Around the world
As you travel around the world, the location is constantly changing, offering a variety of backgrounds. Eventually, however, like in most arcade games, you'll go straight back to the beginning and the levels will continue endlessly. This means it's only a matter of time before you lose all lives or just get bored.
The sound
The music also deserves a special mention, which is rather poor; There is a portion of a piece of classical music that is played after each stage, but the music in the actual stages is some of the worst, of the NES-System. The system had a good number of sound channels, but this game sounds like it only uses one or two!
Conclusion
This is a simple game. While nostalgia for those arcade ports on the NES is a reason to check it out, the game isn't worth checking out.
