According to comments on Archive.org, the version there is 1.0, and the version available on the McD's site is 1.2.
So... very seriously, McDonalds, this is how you engage a demographic. I figured that this particular demographic was like... well, me and maybe ten others. There are dozens of us! Dozens! Man, if they were actually distributing a cart, I'd be over the moon.
they should have an adult happy meal with a cart
I think I'm going to grab that rom that's linked from the article. There's a small chance my curiosity will get the better of me.
I'd suggest grabbing it directly from the source. The ROM is continually being updated; they're on v1.2 now and actively making bug fix releases. The sensible approach is to find the file using a PC web browser's dev tools (Ctrl+Shift+I on Firefox, Chrome or Edge). This will open up a sidebar in your browser with some semi-complicated stuff meant for web developers. Find the Network tab along the top and click on it. If it's not visible as soon as you open the dev tools, you may need to scroll the tabs with a button that looks like 》 or similar, or you could click and drag the separator to increase the size of the entire sidebar.
The network tab will populate with every web request that your current tab makes. So now navigate to https://grimacesbirthday.com/ (or hit the reload button if you're already there) and watch the list fill up. In that list will be your ROM, looking something like the attached image. The ROM is just over 1 MB, probably the largest download you'll see in the list. You should be able to right click on that request and copy the URL, open it in a new tab, etc. to initiate a download of the file to your PC.
The address has changed between releases, so it may not be exactly what I showed in my screenshot.
