    Biker Mice From Mars known in Japan as just simply Biker Mice (バイカーマイス Baikā Mausu?) is a Super Nintendo Entertainment System racing video game made in 1994 by Konami, based on the animated series of the same name.

    Gameplay

    The player takes on the role of one of six racers: Throttle, Modo, Vinnie, Lawrence Limburger, Dr. Karbunkle, or Grease Pit, in a series of motorcycle races, on different tracks that are displayed in isometric projection. After each lap, the player's missile pack is refilled and used to knock off opponents. Also the player has a random bonus choice for additional cash, invulnerability, nitrous oxide acceleration or an encumbering earthquake. The winner gets the prize money and the losers have to start again.

    In between rounds, upgrades for engine, tires, food/armor and weapons can be purchased from the Last Chance garage using the prize money.

    Reception

    In their review, GamePro summarized that "Konami included all the elements of a fun racing game in this cart: good game play, cool characters, easy control, and variety." They also praised the colorful backgrounds and sound effects, though they criticized the lack of digitized voice.[1]
