About the game

What you do in a play session

Get ready to hit the gas with "World of Motor Racing"! This solo game puts you right in the driver's seat of a rally racer, recreating the thrill of a full World Rally Championship season. Forget the rigid formulas of previous entries in the series; here, the approach is entirely focused on the adrenaline and unique challenges of rallying. Each stage presents its own track conditions – snow, gravel, asphalt – and you need to strategically manage your time, adding up stage times with penalties. The game is designed to be realistic and accurate, but without getting bogged down in excessive paperwork, ensuring a fun and immersive experience. A full stage can be completed in just over an hour, and an entire rally in about three to four hours. Be aware: the game requires some reading in English, so having a translated spreadsheet or cards can significantly enhance immersion. If you enjoy motorsport simulations with a strategic and challenging edge, "World of Motor Racing" is your track!
