A basic Yellow Light Cycle

Light Cycle first appeared in the 1982 movie Tron. The game in the Movie was like the game Snake, where the players had to guide eachother into the lines. In the game Light Cycle, the competitors were forced into a life or death game where the Light Cycle bikes would create lines wherever they went. If a bike crashed into a line, the rider would re-desolve. The game is played in a Light Cycle arena, a large empty space with a gridded floor and walls all around.

Light Cycle In Kingdom Hearts 2

In Kingdom Hearts II, Sora had to play a round of Light Cycle on a modern Light Cycle Machine. This is a game of Life and death - If Sora lost all health, it was game over. If a heartless hit you, or you hit a wall, Sora will lose health. Eventually, a large heartless crashes into the wall and creates a hole for Sora to escape - most likely taken from the events of the movie Tron.
