Assault Rigs

Players control their rig to collect all the gems and reach the end goal in each of the game's 42 levels. In the Saturn version, all of the levels were the same as the PlayStation and PC versions, but they were given different names. Along the way, players can collect various types of weapons from missiles to land mines. Throughout each level, players must contend with various enemies from turrets to enemy rigs.

Aerial enemies called "viruses" also attack the player's rig, while hazards like electric gates and mines dot each level. There are also mild puzzle-solving elements such as pushing blocks and building bridges.

GamePro gave the PlayStation version a mixed review. They criticized the oversensitive controls, lack of split screen multiplayer, background flicker, and inappropriate music, but praised the diverse gameplay, focus on problem-solving, and futuristic graphics, and concluded that "Noodling through Assault Rigs will be great fun for those who like a touch of thinking with their shooting." Maximum gave the game credit for its "increasingly complex level designs" and the diversion of the arena levels, but asserted that "This game, while sounding quite entertaining in theory, unfortunately has a variety of problems in practice", citing poor camera angles, glitching graphics, and an overly easy and linear progression. Both GamePro and Maximum compared the game favorably to Cyber Sled.

Next Generation's brief review deemed the game unexciting and scored it two out of five stars. Offering the game a score of 76/100, Scott Gehrs of Computer Game Review wrote, "I can't think of a better game to play when you've got some time to kill."
