Dec. 2025
I absolutely adore this game. I grew up playing things like Ridge Racer, Outrun, and numerous other titles in the arcades. But the one I always loved, that I would have given my spleen for, was my own cabinet version of Sega Rally. Is this game Sega Rally? No. Did it cost me my spleen? Also no. Does it give me that same thrill of a corner well taken, the perfect slide, the zig and zag of tight corners taken one after the other at high speed? Yes. Yes it does. It isn't perfect, the physics are... interesting, but by god it's fun. Sit down, grab that gamepad, and re-live those wonderful, loud, manic hours you spent in the arcade as a kid, trying again and again to get that one last race in before your money ran out, or you had to go home. Also, the soundtrack is absolutely banging. This is genuinely the best money I have spent on a video game since I was 16 years old, smacking 50 pence pieces into a cigarette stinking arcade machine, on a cold blustery day down on the English coast, while my bored grandparents moaned about the "price of fish and chips these days". Buy it.

I like it. Grapchis and structured like CMR1 but gameplay more like Sega Rally. Nice for a nostalgic kick.

A great old school rally game. Imagine that. Is it a realistic rally game? No, but it's fun, and that's what counts for a game like this. It also runs on pretty much anything. I play it on my indie "Steam Machine" with a very modest AMD 2400GE APU w/ Vega 11 iGPU at 60FPS locked. If you like PS1 era racing games you'll dig it. I'd like to see the cars have a bit more inertia is my only critique.

Don't go in expecting hyper-advanced sim physics, but if you know who Colin McRae is you will get the vibe this game is aiming for. Pacenotes from the co-driver could be a little better but for a $10 game made by a single dev you gotta set your expectations accordingly.

Old School Rally is developed by Frozen Lake Games and released in 2024 in early access. Remember the last century? Those were the good old days! What a joy to see that talented developers, nostalgic for that golden era, had the brilliant idea to create a rally game worthy of the classics of yesteryear, like Colin McRae, V-Rally, Sega Rally, or International Rally Championship. The retro vibe is beautifully captured, truly making you feel like you’re back in the ‘90s. The delightfully retro, pixelated, and polygonal graphics are a feast for the eyes, and for me, they’re an absolute treat. Add to that a killer soundtrack blending rock, drum & bass, and synthwave that makes the game even cooler. But let’s get to the heart of it: the racing, obviously. Fans of winding roads and adrenaline-pumping thrills, rejoice! The driving feel is super fun, ultra-arcade, and easy to pick up. No overcomplicating things: just pure, simple pleasure. Each comes in a version very close to their iconic liveries, but with fictional sponsors and names. Some cars are unlocked as you progress through the Rally mode, while others must be purchased with winnings from your victories. You can even customize each car’s livery to your heart’s content thanks to the Steam Workshop! Trust me, you’ll see the world from behind the wheel of these souped-up beasts. Nothing beats a high-speed global tour to get the full experience. You’ll race through Australia, Sweden, Arizona, the UK, China, Finland, Japan, Kenya, Germany, and Greece at breakneck speed! With so many locations come wildly different environments, weather, and tracks. You’ll tackle dirt paths, gravel trails, snowy roads, and smooth asphalt under clear skies, fog, rain, day, or night… Old School Rally offers several game modes to keep you busy for hours. Let’s start with Rally Mode, which is essentially the game’s career mode. You’ll take on various competitions, each featuring a selection of stages to complete within a time limit, often rewarding you with cash and a bonus car. Every two races, you can clean and repair your car if it’s taken a beating. Be warned: damage isn’t just cosmetic: it affects your car’s performance and handling! The Daily Challenge, as the name suggests, is a unique race you can tackle each day on a set track, but with the car of your choice. Complete it, and you’ll pocket $1,000 to save up for future purchases while awaiting the next day’s challenge. Time Trial Mode lets you try to beat your own times on specific stages or compete against other players’ times if you’re feeling competitive. Finally, Versus Mode pits you against an AI opponent or another player locally on the track of your choice. A nice little touch: there’s a Collection menu where every car you own is displayed as a miniature model on a shelf. You can customize the room to your liking, from the shelf’s color to the wallpaper and surrounding decor. I can honestly say it’s been ages since I had this much fun with a rally game. If you’re hesitating about buying it… don’t! Just go for it! This is a game I’d recommend to everyone, from newcomers to the genre to seasoned drivers.
