![]() Keeping your car on the road very often comes down to the perfect combination of the standard brake and the handbrake applied just at the right time, especially if you’re aiming to get a better time. Mastering the art of rally certainly isn’t an easy business, and you’ll notice this from the moment you start the initial free roam mode. ![]() It might be hard to believe, but this makes a heck of a difference, not only when it comes to the maximum speed but also as far as the handling overall is concerned. ![]() Each car comes with its very own specifications a la Gran Turismo, so depending on the rally you’re about to race in, make sure you choose the appropriate model. So in practice, you’re not driving a famous car, but in theory, you do, and this shouldn’t be such a major shortcoming anyway. For example, art of rally’s le gorde is none other than the famous Renault 8 Gordini, the model that was born in 1964 at the Paris Motor Show and which ended up dominating races like Tour de Corse and San Remo. But the vehicles it allows you to drive, as well as their design, allow any car aficionado out there to figure out which actual car they’re racing with. Not per se, at least, as art of rally doesn’t use the real names of the cars because of obvious reasons. ![]() The rally stages take place on famous tracks from countries like Finland and Sardinia and obviously come with appropriate scenery to match each region.īut despite allowing you to compete in historical races, you won’t get behind the wheel of famous cars. It’s not, and this is where the actual driving experience comes into play.įirst and foremost, art of rally is supposed to get you back to the roots of racing, so the game allows you to drive tens of cars that competed in rallies during the 60s, 70s, and 70s.

Everything you see in this game is ridiculously simple and ridiculously cool, so despite using a low-poly approach, art of rally looks really, really good. I’m already a big fan of electronic music, so I think the soundtrack in art of rally fits this game concept like a glove, especially given the scenery that you’ll end up admiring while struggling to keep your car on the road.īefore elaborating on this car mastering challenge, let’s talk a little bit about the graphics. And to do this, the dev team has turned to Tatreal for a collection of electronic mixes that sound surprisingly good.

The first thing I noticed after launching the game is the incredibly awesome tunes. The simply called art of rally, now on PlayStation 5 too, proposes a very simple racing model that may not be everybody’s cup of tea at first, but which certainly grows on you the more you play it. In theory, these games are based on a very similar approach, no matter if they’re supposed to be a racing simulator or just provide an arcade-ish experience: master the art of rally and squeeze every little drop of performance from the engine under the hood in a way that allows you to win as many races as possible.ĭeveloper Funselektor Labs have taken this concept of mastering the art of a rally to a completely new level and eventually created a stand-alone title out of it. ![]() If you’re a fan of racing games, there’s no doubt you’ve already tried the likes of Need for Speed, Formula 1, and maybe Forza and Gran Turismo too if you have a console. ![]()
