Speed Racer: My Most Dangerous Adventure

Worse framerate than the anime


Genre: racing - vehicle combat

Publisher: Accolade

Year: 1994

System: SNES


Gameplay Score: 1

Gameplay Notes:

After playing time trial I was hopeful that the game wouldn't be a complete train wreck but alas I was wrong - this game sucks. Making turns isn't terrible - it's not one of those games where you'll be driving off the road constantly - but it is one of those racing games where you tap tap tap to turn the right amount and to recenter once you're on a straightaway. The real kicker is the horrendous framerate. In time trial it's bad but tolerable. In a race with other racers the game becomes a slide show. This highlights the poor controls and makes the game nigh unplayable.


Level Design Score: 2

Level Design Notes:

Time trial and tournament modes. Only played one track as I was never able to finish it. The track wasnt bad so I'll give it the benefit of the doubt that other tracks would be alright.


Theme Score: 1

Theme Notes:

Speed Racer is dumb.


Art Style Score: 2

Art Style Notes:

If not for the terrible framerate this game would have decent graphics. The car models are decent anyway.


Audio Score: 1

Audio Notes:


Overall Score: 27
