Start your engines for a rally adventure across Europe and Africa! Manage your team, vehicle, and supplies as you navigate treacherous terrains. Each challenge on the road forces tough decisions that impact your journey. Ride to glory in this retro-inspired strategy with a roguelike twist!

Take the wheel and ride on this nostalgic rally trip out to the desert. Pick your driving crew and manage your vehicle and resources, as you encounter challenges on the road. No stress though, just keep your engine running and your eyes on the road. Manage crew and resources: From selecting your team members to managing your vehicle's resources – every decision impacts your journey. Carefully allocate your food, fuel, and spare parts to sustain your team and maintain your vehicle. Sh*t happens on the road: Bad weather, wild animals, bandits.

It’s a pixel-perfect combo of retro visuals and modern gameplay. Race and race again: With multiple strategies and pilot combos to explore, and the unpredictable nature of the event system – every run will be a unique adventure. See ya at the races!
