Marketed with the slogan "Hi Way — All It Needs Is Wheels", it was Atari's first game to use a sit-down arcade cabinet.

[3] This is a game where the player dodges cars on both sides of a narrow two-lane road.

The game hardware is a pre-microprocessor discrete transistor-transistor logic (TTL) design, and used the Durastress process.

The game uses vertical scrolling, influenced by Taito's Speed Race (1974), which was released by Midway Manufacturing as Racer in North America.

[4] The same cabinet design would be used the next year with Atari's popular driving game Night Driver (1976).
