Ren and Stimpy: Quest for the Shaven Yak is a 1993 video game for the Sega Game Gear developed by Realtime Associates for Sega of America. The game was based on the Nickelodeon cartoon The Ren and Stimpy Show. While several games featuring Ren and Stimpy were made for multiple game platforms, this particular game was only created for the Game Gear, although Tec Toy, Sega's Brazilian publisher, ported the game to the Master System in 1993 exclusively for Brazil.
