Micro Machines is a series of computer and video games featuring toy cars, developed by Codemasters and published on several platforms between 1991 and 2006. The series is based on the Micro Machines toy line of miniature vehicles.

Micro Machines games feature tracks based on household settings: for example, kitchen tables and desktops. The tracks also contain obstacles in the form of household items; often the possibility of falling off the track is a hazard in itself.

Micro Machines is the first game in the series laid the foundation of the gameplay: a top-down racing game with miniature vehicles. The race tracks are unconventionally themed. For example, some races take place on a billiard table while others occur in a garden.

The Master System port is well done. It has good soundtrack and tighter controls, especially for sport cars. I like how generous this port is about shortcuts. There are no helicopter races, and turning in place does not cause a Micro Machine to move forward.

Although vision is very limited in all Micro Machines games, it's still a good party game. -
