Stocker is a top-down racing game that debuted in North American arcades in 1984, developed by Bally Sente. A Commodore 64 version was later released in 1988, published by Capcom.
Gameplay
The player takes control of a stock car, competing in a cross-country road race.
Reception
Earl Buckelew from Compute!'s Gazette remarked that although the game targets younger audiences, it delivers sufficient thrill to appeal broadly. Bill Kunkel of Ahoy! characterized it as a charming title revitalized with contemporary methods. Paul A. Hughes of Info described the gameplay as straightforward and likely to engage players only briefly. Scott Wasser from Run suggested other titles might offer better long-term entertainment than Stocker for home users.
Legacy
The title makes an appearance in the 1986 movie The Color of Money.
