Oil slick: Difference between revisions

'''Oil slicks'''<ref>"''If you run into an oil slick, you’ll spin out. Steer around them when possible.''" - ''Super Mario Kart'' English instruction booklet, page 29.</ref> are uncommon obstacles in the [[Mario Kart (series)|''Mario Kart'' games]]. They primarily appear on standard road tracks, such as the [[Mario Circuit]] courses from ''[[Super Mario Kart]]'', and cause drivers to spin out when they run over them. They are rather small and often placed at the edge of the road. Players can also [[jump]] (using a [[Cape Feather|Feather]]) or [[Hop (move)|hop]] over them. They appear in all but [[SNES Mario Circuit 1|the first Mario Circuit]] in ''Super Mario Kart''.  

 

Oil slicks return in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'' on {{classic-link|SNES|Mario Circuit 3}}, ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' on {{classic-link|SNES|Mario Circuit 2}}, ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and its [[Nintendo Switch]] [[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe|port]] on {{classic-link|GBA|Mario Circuit}} and SNES Mario Circuit 2 and [[Bangkok Rush]] in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]''.
