Taz-Mania

A video game adaptation of the Taz-Mania cartoon, starring the Tasmanian Devil. The SNES version is markedly different from the Sega platformer, as it plays far more like a racing game.

Overview

Taz-Mania is a racing game based on the TV animation of the same name, which featured the Looney Tunes character of the Tasmanian Devil and included various side-characters and non-Taz related stories around the Australian outback. The game is a racing game, where the player -- as Taz -- must chase down delicious birds and eat them with his grapple attack. It plays similarly to Road Rash in practice, as it requires a lot of accuracy to get close to the target and take them down.

This version should not be mistaken for the Sega Master System/Genesis/Game Gear Taz-Mania, which was a more standard 2D platformer.
