Lotus: The Ultimate Challenge (1993, DOS) is the kind of racing game that makes you feel like you should be wearing aviators and blasting synthwave. It’s pure, high-speed simplicity — no gimmicks, no weapons, just you, your Lotus, and the road. The split-screen multiplayer was legendary, and the soundtrack could make even a beige office PC feel like a racetrack. Tight controls, smooth scaling, and the occasional roadside tree collision — perfection in motion.
