Full Trottle is an adventure game by Tim Schafer released in 1995.

The game tells the story of a biker named in Ben in a post-apocalyptic future in which a disgruntled employee, Adrian Rippburger, of Corley Motors attempts to rise to the head of the company, which is the last maker of motor-cycles in the country. After a failed attempt by Rippburger to kill Ben by sabotaging his bike, Ben begins a quest for vengeance.

The game's graphics were designed by Jonathan Ackley and Larry Ahern (project leaders on The Curse of Monkey Island) and featured the voice-talent of such seasoned actors as Roy Conrad, Mark Hamill and Kath Souoie. The rock-group Gone Jackals provided several songs for the soundtrack (including the iconic theme song) resulting in the games' soundtrack to becoming a collector's item.

The game introduced the verb-coin interface which was used in the third Monkey Island game.
