Ignition is a racing game for MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows released in 1996 by Virgin Interactive.[1] It features miniature cars and different vehicles such as school buses, police cars and trucks, many of which are unlocked as the game progresses. It was re-released by Interplay in 2017.[2][3]

Development

Ignition's soundtrack and sound effects were produced by Christian Björklund.[4]

Reception

Ignition received generally favourable reviews. Many highlighted the game's entertainment value, a very good first impression and detailed graphics. Some mentioned its similarity to Micro Machines 2 also featuring "small cars", and the game's simplicity was both seen positively and negatively (lacking content) in comparison.[5]
