    DESCRIPTION:

    Start your engines! Join Dick Dastardly, Muttley, Penelope Pitstop and the rest of the zany characters from the popular Wacky Races cartoon as they compete cross-country in equally crazy souped-up racing contraptions.

    Wacky Races puts the player in the driver's seat of up to 8 different unique and outrageous vehicles ranging from the rock-solid, relentless Boulder Mobile driven by The Slag Brothers to the turbo-charged, streamlined Turbo Terrific operated precisely by Peter Perfect. Across nine winding, tricky tracks, players try to trip each other up with a variety of absurd gadgets and weapons that are picked up along the way, producing frequent hilarious cartoon conflicts between vehicles.

    Players can choose to race from 4 different modes including Arcade, Endurance, Championship and Time Trial. Race as fast as you can in Arcade mode; if the player finishes in one of the top three places, he'll move on to the next race. Endurance mode is the greatest challenge for a Wacky Racer. Choosing from one of the nine available courses, the most ruthless daredevil wins. The vehicle in last place at the end of each lap is eliminated from the race. Earn points throughout all nine tracks and see who wins overall in Championship mode. Time Trial mode challenges players to try to finish in the fastest time possible.

    GAME FEATURES:
  • Speed through 9 bumpy tracks filled with challenging jumps, bonuses and traps
  • Choose from 8 wild vehicles
  • Race 4 different ways - Arcade, Endurance, Championship and Time Trial modes
  • Control vehicle in simple and intuitive ways
  • Maximize the wacky racing fun with 3 difficulty settings
