Andretti Racing, developed by High Score Productions and Stormfront Studios and published by EA Sports, is a racing video game for the Sony PlayStation that was released in 1996. The game features both stock car and Formula-1 racing, and it was designed with the input of the Andretti family, including Mario Andretti, Michael Andretti, and Jeff Andretti. The game offers several modes of play, such as Exhibition Race, Career, Versus, and Racing School. The Racing School mode includes instructional videos from the Andretti family, providing insights into the sport and the construction of the cars.
In the Career mode, players can compete in a ten-week season across various tracks, including real-world locations like the Calder Park Thunderdome and the Oceanside International Raceway, as well as fictional tracks designed by the Andretti family. Each track presents unique challenges, requiring players to adapt their racing strategies and practice to memorize the best lines. The game also allows for customization of car settings, including transmission, tire selection, wing adjustments, and gear ratios, adding a layer of depth to the gameplay.
Andretti Racing received mixed reviews upon its release. While some praised the game’s graphics and responsive controls, others found the graphics to be below average for the PlayStation. The game’s control system was widely praised, with many reviewers highlighting the enjoyable and deep gameplay that challenges more than just reflexes. The game’s multiplayer capabilities, particularly the four-player split-screen mode on the PlayStation, were also noted as a significant feature.
Despite its mixed reception, Andretti Racing was nominated for the “Best Sim Game” award at the CNET Gamecenter Awards in 1997, although it did not win, with Jane’s Longbow 2 taking the prize. The game sold over 200,000 copies and was considered one of the best true 32-bit racing simulations on the market by some reviewers. The game’s blend of arcade and simulation elements made it appealing to a wide range of players, offering both the accessibility of arcade racing and the depth of simulation racing.
