Death Rally

Some mobile ports are really bad, but this one really fits with bigger systems. I always liked those action-racing games like Rock n Roll Racing or Death Rally classic. It is fun to destroy all your opponents and nobody wants to be in the first place during the race to avoid all the missiles coming from behind. The amount of strategies of these kind of games is makes them a perfect choice for those who are looking for some replayability. Death Rally does nothing new, but there are not so many games like this in the genre.In death Rally you can upgrade your car with the money you earn from the races, and what once was really hard races where you barely survive becomes championships where you dominate all your rivals. It's kind of repetitive, with average graphics and sometimes unfair difficulty, but its arcade essence is fun enough.

Story: 15/25 Gameplay: 20/25 Graphics: 18/25 Sound: 16/25 This is a game where you race cars with pew-pew guns. So, the story is pretty nonexistent most of the time, but it's there. The gameplay is fun and fairly satisfying most of the time. However, in later stages when your car is maxed out and you know what you're doing, it gets really boring as you just get ay ahead and you just ... turn. Te graphics and sound are okay. Everything starts to look pretty bland and you start to tune out the sound, but ... oh well. Pretty solid for a mobile port and a remake of a game from 1996.

I remember when, like 15 years ago (or more), I played the original Death Rally. I had tons of fun and enjoyed it a lot. The moment I played this one, it was like traveling back to my childhood, when I spent hours playing this great game. 9/10 moms complained about it.

The game knows its predecessor. I was waiting so much for this game when it was announced and oh the disappointment when I heard it was going to be only for tablets. But NOW IT IS ON PC, TOO! YES! As fun as it ever was, you still have to race that. ONE. RACE. Getting new cars and upgrading the one you have is intoxicating. Oh, and racing against Duke? It is as legendary as in the first one. You feel you have accomplished and mastered the game when you leave The King to eat your dust. Hail to the New King, baby!

Certainly, Death Rally fans will not be disappointed, (except for not being able to choose Duke Nukem character). For those unfamiliar with the series, this game is like "Micromachines", but more brutal. The good thing is that it has improved a lot over the old game, more weapons, more modes, but without losing the essence of the original 1996 game. The only downside is that everything is "upgrades", whereas in the original you could just buy things (cars, weapons, sabotage ...) while in this game you have to unlock achievements or improving absolutely everything (car, guns, objects ...), which turns the game into something repetitive ... but I like it anyway. Definitely a great remake (and multiplayer), I don't understand how he could have so little acceptance by the community. I love this game!
