It's miniature mayhem! Race micro cars, choppers and boats! Whiz around the spectacular scale mini tracks. Can you handle sand pits, pool tables and school desks courses?

If you're bored of racing Formula 1 cars, rally cars or MotoGP bikes in their natural habitats, the Micro Machines series could be for you. It involves racing miniatures representing particular vehicle types across a particular terrain found around the house. These levels were packed with variation. Viewed from overhead with small graphics, the races include up to 4 cars. In one player challenge mode you race through the 21 tracks in a set order, selecting your 3 opponents as you go along, eliminating one after every third race. If you win 3 races in a row without using a continue you get a time-trial race which can earn you an extra life. The real innovation of the game was in the multiplayer modes. You started with 4 points each, and when one car gets far enough ahead to force the other car off-screen, the slider moves in their favour. 9 of the tracks are available in this mode, although you can also play this Head to Head system as a 1-player game across all the tracks.
