Wacky Races for the Sega Mega Drive is an unreleased racing game developed by Eden Entertainment Software and is based on the TV franchise. Though never released onto store shelves, a prototype of the game has since emerged on the internet.
For a Mega Drive game, Wacky Races is very advanced, offering an experience comparable to Super Mario Kart on the SNES despite the system lacking a "Mode 7"-esque graphical setting. Offered is a full grand prix and a battle mode, both of which can be played by up to two players. Every wacky racer with the exception of Dick Dasterdly & Muttley is playable. The game is also notable for being one of the only Wacky Races games to use the music heard in the TV show, rather than inventing its own music tracks.
It is unknown exactly how complete the prototype version of the game is. All the stages and modes appear to be in working order, but the prototype informs the user that it was "meant for demonstration purposes only" which suggests more work was intended before home release.
