Oriental Challenge (Japanese: Orientarucharenji
オリエンタルチャレンジ) is a Japanese-themed racetrack with crazy background music and epic buildings such as the tower, markets, monasteries and Q-Boats which are usually seen from the past Choro-Q boat video games such as Choro-Q Marine: Q-Boat (sold in Japan only).
