My reservations were with the handling as mentioned earlier – expecting the Mini to be a good entry-level car. It can be quite deceiving as Art of Rally looks so simple in its design, you’d think that you could glide around the corners without consequences and perhaps use a nitro boost.įortunately, there aren’t any nitros in the game, but you can glide around the corners effortlessly with practice, and it’s not a big ask. But that’s down to the game mechanics and the onus on the player. My biggest criticism would be the handling. If it weren’t for the fact that there’s a pile of games sitting on my SD cards and hard drives, I’d be playing Art of Rally more. Game Modes and Viewpointsīut we’re here to set the best times, and there’s plenty on offer in the game to hone your skills. The depths of field option is very much indulgent. While the timer stops and you’re not in motion, getting sidetracked soon takes you out of the game and you’ll find that this is quite the distraction. The tracks are varied, and you can drive on practice courses, Finland, Japan – everywhere imaginable in the sport, and while they don’t have the realistic aesthetics as others in the genre, it’s almost like a sight-seeing tour – more so when you park up to take a photo.Īrt of Rally features one of the best photo modes where you can capture the action on the fly.

There are plenty of options such as four difficulty levels and a damage indicator, meaning you can punch above your weight while you learn the ropes, but it’s recommended to keep to the default. It’s not that it’s ridiculously hard, but you do need to be an almost perfect driver. The game does state that you need to persevere. While the presentation had me drooling, my initial experience wasn’t on par when it came to the controls as it took a bit of time to get used to. Many are likely to disagree with that, but it has the simplicity of the arcade, but to really master it and be able to set enviable times, you need to be able to apply the acceleration at the right time, take corners effortlessly and know how your car handles inside out. Art of Rally is between arcade and semi-simulator. That said, expecting to get in a Mini and tear up the tracks isn’t as easy as it sounds. They’re pretty basic, but elegant at the same time, and taking out the various vehicles with unofficial names almost immediately replicates what they’re based on. With the presentation here, it reminded me of an arty Super Skidmarks when comparing the car models.
