Putt-Putt Enters the Race is an educational adventure game developed and published by Humongous Entertainment in 1998. The game is the fifth entry in the Putt-Putt series. This is the first of two games to feature Nancy Cartwright as the voice of Putt-Putt.
Production[edit]
The game was created by Humongous Games as part of the popular edutainment series Putt-Putt in 1998. The game was re-released in 2014 for iOS, Android, and Steam.
Plot[edit]
Putt-Putt and Pep receive a letter from Redline Rick inviting him to enter the Cartown 500, and he's been waiting for this type of event all year, so he's definitely going to accept it. But he needs some things before he enters, so he needs to drive around Cartown and look for them. Putt-Putt has to find the number of important objects before he qualifies for the race (High-powered, high octane gasoline, super speedy radial racing tires, a safety helmet for Pep, and a triangular flag with a specific number on it as his official number). When all of the objectives are completed, Putt-Putt is allowed to enter the race. At the end of the race, Redline Rick announces Putt-Putt as the winner with the medal and trophy. However, Redline Rick rewards Putt-Putt a ribbon if Putt-Putt does not win first place in the race.
Promotion[edit]
