The tracks have been beautifully designed, and the camera angles shows it off very well – in addition to letting you see tricky turns ahead of time.īut while Art of Rally looks a lot like your typical top-down arcade racer – the kind that was popular twenty to thirty years ago – it plays much more like a rally game than you’d expect. There’s a minimalist approach the menus, and it carries over into the game itself as well. What is appealing, however, is the game’s visual style. Doing well lets you unlock additional cars too, but without any kind of licensing the appeal isn’t always there. This is most clear in the game’s main career mode, where you play through abbreviated versions of these seasons by competing in a handful of stages before moving on. Instead, the game has been inspired by what the developers call the golden age of rally racing, taking you through time by participating in events from the late ’60s all the way to the ’90s – which matching cars for each era. Unlike the aforementioned games, Art of Rally doesn’t feature any official licenses, so if you’re a huge fan of a certain event, car model or driver, you won’t find them here. It was ported over to consoles earlier this year, but PlayStation owners had to wait until now to get their hands on the game.

Enter Art of Rally by Funselektor Labs, which thanks to its overhead perspective looks very unique and was well received when it launched on PC last year. They tend to all look somewhat similar though, often differing mostly in how realistic or arcade-like the racing model is.
From the annual WRC games to Dirt Rally and from Sébastien Loeb Rally EVO to V-Rally 4, it’s certainly a prolific subgenre of racing. Rally racing games have been very popular since the days of the Colin McRae games, and in recent years alone we’ve had a number of different ones come out. We always enjoy checking out games that are being rereleased on new platforms, so let’s highlight a few of them right now – here are Art of Rally, KeyWe, Puzzle Bobble 3D: Vacation Odyssey, Lord of the Click 2 and Catty & Batty: The Spirit Guide.
