The most popular genres of computer games include driving and racing simulations.
Early classics such as the Need for Speed or the Grand Prix saga still had fixed courses and were, so to speak, "cages" that could not be left.
In the meantime, so-called open-world games are all the rage: Here players can move more or less freely and do not have to follow any set routes.
If you ever want to drive around your neighborhood in a virtual car without limits, you can do so on the Internet at https://framesynthesis.com/drivingsimulator/maps/.
Click on “Start” and enter your home address in the box labeled “Location name or lat,lng”.
Your vehicle will then be placed at the desired location and you can start driving by using the cursor keys.
As with most games of this genre, the up and down arrow keys are used for acceleration and braking, while the other two keys are used for steering.
There are also "Car"/"Bus" buttons on the map, which you can use to switch between car and bus.
The perspective can be set using the tilt buttons, and using the "North up"/"Head up" button you can select, like with a navigation system, whether the map is correctly northed or whether the display follows the direction of travel.
However, there are a few drawbacks to be made: There are no sound effects and collisions are not recognized.
Now our question:
In which computer game could you race through a fictitious Canadian national park with a Ferrari F50 and a Jaguar XKR?
