Top Gear Pocket,[a] known in Europe as Top Gear Rally, is a racing video game developed by Kemco and released for the Game Boy Color handheld console in 1999. A sequel, Top Gear Pocket 2, was released in 2000.

The player races against a computer-controlled opponent. The player's position and best time are shown at the top of the screen.

Top Gear Pocket is a racing video game where the player drives rally cars through a series of tracks. As the player wins races, new cars and tracks are unlocked.[2] The game features a total of 14 cars and eight tracks.[3] Races can take place in cities, savannas, grasslands, and snowy trails.[3] Both two-wheeled and four-wheeled cars are featured in the game and the handling of each car varies significantly.[3] The game cartridge features a built-in rumble feature that vibrates when the player crashes into other cars or slides on the track,[2] but does not feature a battery to save the game progress, so passwords must be used to restore the game to a specific state.[3] The game also includes a multiplayer mode where two players can race against each other.[3] The Game Link Cable is required for multiplayer.[4]
