Toy Racer is the sequel to Toy Commander. It was developed by No Cliché, published by Sega and only released in Europe for a budget price of £5 (where £1 of this would go to charity). It was marketed as being an online game, and as a result has no AI players to race against in single-player mode.

A North American version, set to debut shortly after the European copy, was seemingly announced[3], but never materialised.

History

The online portions to the game where brought back online in 2014[4][5] and supports both the Modem and the Broadband Adapter.
