Micro Machines is a top-down racer developed by Codemasters based on the toys of the same name. What sets it apart from other racers of the day were the size of the vehicles used, so rather than simply racing around a generic track, the player must race around much smaller areas such as table tops. There are a variety of different vehicles that are automatically assigned depending on the track.
Due to its success, Micro Machines was followed by Micro Machines 2: Turbo Tournament and numerous other sequels.
