Wacky Races (チキチキマシン猛レース, Chiki Chiki Machine Mou Race) is a platform game for the Nintendo Entertainment System, developed and published by Atlus. The game is based on the Hanna-Barbera cartoon Wacky Races and features Muttley and Dick Dastardly as the main characters.
Why It Rocks
- Tight and responsive controls, Muttley will never feel unresponsive and will also always respond to your commands, not to mention that the controls as a whole aren't clunky, so they are perfect for a 2D platformer.
- The show here is well represented despite not being a racing game, this is because of the cutscenes that had similar situation from the cartoon and also, the characters are faithful to their cartoon counterpart.
- The gameplay is really fun and is surprisingly great for a platformer based on a racing franchise, as here there is enough variaty so that you aren't bored when playing, and also, when you get all the upgrades, the game will become even more fun than it already is.
- There is an upgrade system, which is a cool thing for a 2D platformer, and this include:
- First off, there is the bomb, which is way better than your regular attack, and it also do a lot of damages, the hit-detection of it is also great.
- There is also the flying that can be added, and when you get it, the game become a breeze to complete and to play, and the game is even easier with it.
- There is also a health bar upgrade, which also greatly help even when you gotten all the healths bar upgrade, as when you choose it when you had the fully upgraded bar, when you had not many energy left, when you choose the upgrade, it fully charge your health bar so combine this with the other upgrade and you will make the game even easier.
