River Patrol (bootleg) — About this game

River Patrol (bootleg) is an exact registered version in this game family. River Patrol sends a rescue boat upstream through a narrowing, hazardous river. The engine action moves it against the current, while releasing the accelerator lets the current carry it back downstream. Drowning people can be rescued by steering over them, but a rescue attempt must leave room around rocks, logs, boats and dangerous wildlife. The route grows harder to negotiate as the bends and gaps tighten. Reaching the dam before the boat’s available time runs out is the goal beyond the next rescue. Version-specific changes to characters, stages, timing, difficulty, balance, graphics or hidden content are not inferred where the registration does not document them.
