Death Rally

NOT RECOMMENDED, NOT EVEN FOR FREE - everything is worse than in the free Death Rally Classic and the controls are so horrendous as the mobile port turning the car is like that of a SHIP and it is utterly uncontrollable. Your turning will never be accurate and there is no getting used to uncontrollable controls like that. Besides the enjoyment-destroying turning controls, the game is super-padded with dull grinding for weapon and car parts that makes no sense in the Death Rally context. This product is ironic in that it looks like they put a lot of work into it to make it worse than the original DOS game. Probably not as intended, though that is how it turned out. The little added content is bizarre (cars that are no better than Deliverator yet take extra grinding to unlock) or pointless (the challenge levels). Most importantly, they ruined the Adversary fight by making it an awful RNG mess where you have to pray for the AI shooting to hit the randomly located boxes on the track for some nitro uses and that you won't randomly slow down for no reason as the game proverbially excretes inside itself. That part of the game is pure suffering. That is probably because the developers f…

I liked Death Rally back in the day, but this remake just didn’t feel the same. It’s not horrible, and if you want a little cheap nostalgia you might have some fun with it, but it didn’t really feel the original did.

Among the negative reviews I have read about Death Rally there is one that goes like this: "bland, streamlined, oversimplified"......that's exactly right. This game feels like an oversimplified (tech-demo) version of a much bigger, grander original idea. The story is something that is just there only for the developers to claim that there is a story, but basically it's just a couple of screens. Basically you are racer that slowly grinds money and fame by competing in a variety of races until the big boss called "The Adversary" notices you and calls you to a duel. The game is truly a grind fest, you have to play the 8 avaiable races in all the possible difficulties (beginner, easy, medium, hard and extreme) over and over again in order to gain money, car parts and weapons parts. So essentially with time you unlock increasingly stronger weapons and cars. And you also upgrade cars. The stronger and more upgraded the car the easier is to beat the races in all the possible difficulties. There are many shortcomings in my opinion: 1) the races are too short, only 3 laps each. That means that the start of the race is crucial, and if you make just a few mistakes you can forget about winnin…

5 out of 87 of the achievements are impossible to get unless you completely dedicate your time into repetitively playing the same races over and over again after the main game is complete. Those who knows, knows. Anyways, used hacky ways to get those achievements cause I can't be bothered. Other than that, it's a fun game. Short races, fun and consistent progression. Story can be completed in 4-5 hours, whole game (except those 4-5 Achievements) in 8-10 hours. Also, you can race Geoff Keighley and kill him in this game lol. I recommend it!
