Learnin' Wheels is a nice exploration and racing game and basically the Grand Theft Auto for kids. You explore a big city to find lost sheep while annoying pedestrians and motorists, tuning up your car, making phone calls while driving, etc.
And it has great overhead driving controls, something neither Dick Tracy nor Roger Rabbit on the NES had!
Unused Graphics#
Dog#
The aggressive dog in the Post Office game is found only in a side view, but includes graphics for a front and back view. Perhaps vertical levels were also planned for the Post Office game.
A frame of the front view was mostly overwritten with the used side view.

To do: |
Found in the HUD graphics of the race track game is this time and km/h display, which is not used for some reason.

Unheard Music#
The song on the overview map, which is only displayed for a few seconds, is actually the longest song in the game. However, since the game automatically moves to the next scenery after a few seconds, three-quarters of the song is never audible.
Unheard Jingle#
Only half of the high score jingle is used, because it is abruptly interrupted by the result music.
