"Road Avenger" for the Sega CD, released in 1992, is an interactive movie-style game developed by Wolf Team. Renowned for its use of full-motion video (FMV), this title immersed players in a high-speed, action-packed driving adventure. Here's a review:

Gameplay (6/10): "Road Avenger" offers an interactive movie experience where players control the actions of the protagonist, seeking revenge while driving through various environments. The gameplay primarily revolves around quick-time events (QTEs), requiring precise inputs to navigate the story and avoid obstacles. While the interaction is limited, the game provides a thrilling cinematic experience.

Graphics & FMV Quality (7/10): Visually, the FMV sequences in "Road Avenger" are relatively good for the Sega CD era. The video quality captures the intense action and high-speed chases, though it might seem dated by contemporary standards. The use of FMV contributes to the game's immersive storytelling.

Story & Presentation (7/10): The narrative follows the protagonist seeking vengeance against a criminal gang responsible for a tragic event. The presentation, relying heavily on FMV cutscenes, unfolds like an action movie, offering a captivating but linear storyline that keeps players engaged throughout.

Sound & Music (6/10): The game features suitable sound effects that complement the on-screen action. However, the soundtrack might not leave a lasting impression, and the audio quality might be limited due to the Sega CD's capabilities, impacting the overall immersive experience.

Replayability (4/10): Due to its linear nature and reliance on QTEs, "Road Avenger" offers limited replay value. Once players have navigated through the storyline and memorized the required inputs, subsequent playthroughs might lack surprise or novelty.

Charm & Nostalgia (7/10): "Road Avenger" holds a certain charm for enthusiasts of FMV games and those nostalgic for the era of interactive movies. Its unique approach to storytelling and the use of FMV might appeal to fans of classic gaming experiences.

Overall (6/10): "Road Avenger" on Sega CD delivers a nostalgic and immersive FMV-driven experience. While its reliance on QTEs and linear storytelling might limit long-term engagement, it remains a notable title for enthusiasts of FMV games and those curious about the Sega CD library.
