Outlander is an action Vehicular Combat game developed by Mindscape and released for the Sega Genesis and Super Nintendo in 1992 and 1993, respectively. The game was originally under development as a video game tie-in for Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior, following Mindscape's 1990 Mad Max tie-in on the NES. The loss of the Mad Max license late into the game's development led to a change in title and the removal of most references to Mad Max, making this a Mad Max game in all but name.The game's story, as laid out in the manual, takes place over a century after a devastating nuclear war. Most of the world is now a barren and dangerous desert, the oceans are slowly beginning to freeze over, and fresh drinking water has become a rare and highly sought-after commodity. The good news is that a brilliant scientist, Dr. Beaumont, has unlocked the secrets to synthesizing fresh water, thus potentially ending the water crisis. The bad news is that, while flying around the world to share his knowledge, his plane is shot down over Australia, and the good doctor has been taken hostage by raiders led by the devious Duster, who hopes to keep Beaumont's secrets for himself and hold the world's last supply of fresh water for ransom. Enter the Outlander — that's you — a mercenary and native of the Australian wasteland, hired by the United Nations to rescue Dr. Beaumont and deal with Duster once and for all.Not to be confused with the novel, TV series, film, or fanfic of the same name.

Power-Up Food: Food and water restore health. Some food, however, may be contaminated with radiation, and eating it will result in lost health. You will need a Geiger counter to know if food is toxic.

Bottomless Fuel Tanks: Averted. You will need to collect fuel to keep your car running. If you run out, you'll need to go on-foot and scrounge for more gas. Making it to a town gives you a chance to scavenge for more fuel than if you had to stop between towns.

Gainax Ending: After killing Duster, you find Dr. Beaumont. Unfortunately, he's gone mad from the stress of his captivity. The game ends with the Outlander taking Beaumont home, with no mention of what has happened to his knowledge of water synthesis.

Car Fu: You can ram your car into some bike-mounted enemies. Attempting this on enemies riding jeeps and trucks isn't as effective and more likely to damage your car.
