About Who Framed Roger Rabbit

"Who Framed Roger Rabbit" is set in a 1947 Hollywood where cartoon characters coexist with humans. The player controls Roger Rabbit, who must prove his innocence after being accused of murdering Marvin Acme. A missing will that bequeaths Toon Town to its inhabitants is central to the plot, and Jessica Rabbit requires rescue from the villainous Judge Doom.

Gameplay involves navigating through four distinct stages. Two of these are driving sequences where the player must race against adversaries while avoiding traffic and hazardous substances on the road. Power-ups are available during these segments.

The other stages shift to different environments. One takes place inside the Ink & Paint Club, where the objective is to locate the will among papers dropped by waiters while evading obstacles. The final stage is set in a warehouse, where progression depends on using comedic items to defeat enemies. The overall challenge involves a mix of evasion, collection, and strategic item use.
