The official video game of the Games of the XXVII Olympiad held in Sydney in 2000. It includes 32 nations, in search of gold in 12 events divided into 6 sports: Athletics (100 m sprint, 110 m hurdles, hammer and javelin throw, triple jump and high jump), Swimming (200 m freestyle and 10m Platform Diving), Kayak K1 Slalom, Super Heavy Weightlifting, Skeet Shooting and Three-Way Track Cycling Pursuit. All events feature 3D graphics with cameras that mimic those used in TV shows.
Gameplay is usual in games of the genre - one button overriding the two power buttons is needed in most events to increase strength/speed, with an additional third button defining actions, such as jumping or angle throwing . Other events offer alternative methods of control, such as slalom (where you can press certain buttons to dodge the rower between gates if the kayak is going to hit one or place the paddle to force in a certain direction ), Dive (after a "click-along" key sequence), and Skeet (the arrow keys controlling aiming, one button to start and the other to fire).
Along with an arcade and 8-player action, the Olympic mode gives the player the opportunity to build their athlete from the National Open Trials to the Olympics. By performing training exercises in the Cyber Gym, the athlete increases his athletic abilities: Citius, Altius, Fortius, as the Olympic motto says. Before joining the competition, the player must defeat national, continental and international opponents.
