Evel Knievel

Evel Knievel is a stunt game based on the daredevil’s career. You ride as Knievel, taking on motorcycle jumps and a rocket flight over Snake River Canyon, and try to land safely. Play solo or in local multiplayer with up to four players.

Jumps and vehicles

Progress through 28 jumps across 10 historic locations. The courses include Rattlesnakes and Lions, 13 London Buses, 18 Cars and a Van, Man Eating Sharks, the Las Vegas Casino Fountain and the Snake River Canyon rocket jump. You start with a 250cc Scrambler and can work up to the 750cc Ultimate and other vehicles.

There are 11 bikes, including the 650cc Deluxe and Jet-Powered Stratocycle, as well as the Skycycle X-2 rocket for the Snake River Canyon jump. Motorcycle courses feature obstacles such as flaming hoops, springboards and cranes, and you can perform wheelies, flips, loops and other stunts. For the rocket jump, manage the fuel burn during launch and deploy the parachute to land; points depend on how close you get to the center of the landing pad.

Multiplayer

Motorcycle multiplayer is cooperative: players take turns completing the course, and the group advances to the next venue. Rocket multiplayer is competitive, with players launching their Skycycle X-2 rockets at the same time and competing for the highest total points over several attempts.

Rider progression

Complete goals to earn experience, level up Evel and improve his stats. As you advance, goals are revealed, with up to four available to choose from at a time. Strength helps him survive harder landings, Charisma increases the radius for collecting coins, and Agility lets you rotate the bike faster in the air.

Outfits and rewards

Collect coins while riding through obstacles and in the air, then spend them on outfits and bike upgrades. The game includes Evel Knievel’s White and Blue leathers, eight classic outfits and 20 special helmets. Earn bronze, silver and gold trophies on each jump, along with local achievements.
