South Park Rally is the third video game based on South Park and a racing game released by Acclaim on PlayStation, Nintendo 64 and Sega Dreamcast. It was released on September 1999 and is the last South Park video game before Trey Parker and Matt Stone decided to have more creative control on future games. It is also the last South Park video game featuring Issac Hayes as Chef and Mary Kay Bergman.
Tropes shown in this game
- And Your Reward Is Clothes: You can unlock special variants of certain characters, such as Cop Cartman and Vampire Kyle.
- Ass Shove: A dildo can be launched like a rocket, landing into the ass of the racer who is in first or second place. This item is only present on Microsoft version.
- Back from the Dead: Scuzzlebutt appears in the game as a playable character, even though he was killed-off by Stan in the season one episode Volcano.
- Call-Back: If losing a race with Sheila, she will sometimes say "Blame Canada".
- The Cameo: Saddam Hussein's face appears as part of the Spookyvision.
- Cluster Bleep-Bomb: As with the two other Acclaim South Park games, "shit" and "fuck" are completely censored.
- Content Warning: As with other South Park games, it comes with one during the intro.
- Continuity Nod: The costumes that can be unlocked for the boys and Chef are ones from previous episodes.
- Covers Always Lie: The cover shows Kyle and Kenny's karts are colored blue and purple. In-game, their karts are colored red and cyan. Also, the back of the box for the Nintendo 64 version mentions Scuzzlebutt as one of the characters to face off against when the character is completely absent in the aforementioned version
. - Early-Installment Weirdness: The game is tied to the first three seasons of the cartoon, leading to some noticeable oddities. In particular, Butters and Randy Marsh, two of the most iconic recurring characters in the show, are completely absent as neither would become prominent until later on in the show's run, and the roster includes several One Shot Characters who haven't appeared since their debut like Damien, Death, and Scuzzlebutt. Also, Jimbo's license plate on the PC and Dreamcast reads "JIMMY", which wouldn't make sense after Jimmy Valmer's debut.
- Fartillery: The Terrance and Phillip turbos.
- Go-Karting with Bowser: Damien, Death and Satan gets to race along with the citizens of South Park.
- Lethal Lava Land: The Volcano track.
- Mascot Racer: The tracks include the town streets, a farm, the mountains, the sewer, a volcano, the woods, and Big Gay Al's house. Powerups include Chocolate Salty Balls or cheesy poofs as the projectiles, explosive cows for land mines, spooky vision or herpes for interface screws, Mr. Hankey for invincibility, and explosive diarrhea as the land mine.
- Shout-Out: In the Halloween level, numerous animals wear hockey masks.
- Stock Audio Clip: Some of the audio clips are recycled from the previous two South Park games.
- Theme Mobile: Some characters drive vehicles themed after them. The Death drives a hearse, Scuzzlebutt has a wicker basket, Grandpa uses his wheelchair, etc.
- Toilet Humour: Characters are able to fart, vomit and defecate on the track during a race.
- Unlockable Content: Several tracks and drivers can be unlocked as the game progresses.
- Version-Exclusive Content: The carnival track is only present on Sega Dreamcast and the dildo is only obtainable on Windows version.
