Tiny Toon Adventures: ACME All-Stars is a sports game featuring the cast of Tiny Toon Adventures. It was released exclusively for the Sega Mega Drive in 1994.

Story

ACME Looniversity is holding a sports tournament to determine the best team in ACME Acres.

Gameplay

ACME All-Stars is a compilation of sports games, with added Tiny Toon twists such as extra obstacles and special moves. The two main attractions are the soccer and basketball modes, though there are also obstacle course, bowling, and "Montana hitting" (whack-a-mole) activities.

In the single-player Story mode, Buster and Babs Bunny (no relation) form a team with Plucky Duck and Hamton J. Pig and play through the various events, ultimately defeating Montana Max and his team. There are nine matches and a password system for continuing.

Players can also choose to play individual events, with up to four players simultaneously using the Team Player. In the obstacle course, bowling, and Montana hitting events, players play as Buster, Babs, Plucky, or Hampton.

In the two team sports, the player makes a team out of a selection of twelve characters from the show. Each character has his or her own special technique and different "Ace" moves for soccer and basketball, all of which cost Super Power to use. Super Power recovers over course of the game. The character passes out if the Super Power gauge is completely emptied.

Venues

In soccer and basketball games, the player has a choice between four different pitches or arenas:

• Stadium: A standard stadium with no twists.
• Western: A western-themed environment with kicking horses in the corners of the field and rolling barrels.
• Forest: A forest with bushes that can cause characters to slip.
• Downtown: An urban environment with oil puddles that can cause characters to slip.
• Monty's Playroom: A playroom with a model train and toy cars running through it that can obstruct characters.
