The game uses a fast chase-racing perspective. After selecting a target, the player drives through traffic-packed roads, trying to close the gap before the timer runs out. In pursuit segments, the goal is to ram the suspect’s car until it is stopped, while avoiding civilian traffic, barriers, and mistakes in corners. Speed, clean cornering, and aggressive positioning are essential for success.
CHASE H.Q. is a 1988 arcade racing game by Taito in which players act as special agents chasing down fugitives in high-performance cars. Its blend of high-speed driving and ramming-based arrests, plus the signature “Pursuit Mode,” made it a memorable late-1980s arcade hit with lasting recognition among driving-game fans.

Stay close to the suspect on straight sections and avoid wasting time on unnecessary collisions. Brake or ease off before tight turns so you do not hit traffic or barriers and lose speed. In the final pursuit phase, line up behind the target car as centered as possible to make contact easier. When time is low, consistency matters more than risky overtakes.
