It is your job to solve 100 Rube Goldberg style puzzles by placing pieces in the right spot. The puzzle goals range from letting Al E. Cat(haha) catch Sid Mouse, helping Sid reach his cheese, or simply blowing one of the characters up.

Sid and Al aren't the only characters in the game, however. They are joined by other cartoons such as Eunice the Elephant and Bik the Dragon. Each character acts as a different puzzle piece and is used in a different way. Eunice, for example, will toss things that hit her trunk, while Bik will blow fire any time something hits him.

There are a variety of different objects used to solve the puzzles, and they range from realistic to cartoony. There are conveyor belts and pullies to get things where you want them, but there are also guns which will cough out bullets. Once you master all 100 puzzles, there is also a create-a-puzzle mode where you can make your own crazy contraptions to stump your friends.

You-and your battle smarts-guide your troops to glory. Will your armada of spiders cross the cola lake in time to save the flag? Will the suicide run of kamikaze mosquito take out the praying mantis? At what cost? At what price of victory?

There is an extreme amount of customization for your motorcycle. You can adjust the shocks, tire pressure, fork angle, gear ratio, and engine characteristics. All of these options are crucial to change if you want to win in some races. The control also takes a realistic approach. If you are in a high gear and don't give enough gas, your bike will stall and you will have to start it back up. Also, you can square off the corners and take them sharper if needed.
