Rush Rally Origins is the fourth installment of the popular series of rally racing games. As the title suggests, the game is in some ways a return to the roots of the series. It was developed by the authors of the previous projects in the series, Brownmonster studio.

Mechanics

In Rush Rally Origins, as in the first installment of the series, we observe the action from a top-down view. During the game we race on 36 tracks scattered around the world, which differ in design and type of surface; we have to fight for victory on snow, gravel, mud, asphalt or gravel. Additionally, the battles take place at different times of the day and in different weather conditions.

The cars that we have at our disposal represent four classes varying in performance. As we progress, we unlock various upgrades that allow us to increase the potential of each of the vehicles and customize them to our preferences. Although the driving model is arcade, and the cars are only inspired by real rally cars, the game features realistic physics taken from Rush Rally 3 and an extensive damage system.

Saving Content: 3 / 5 by Scott Ellison II

Rush Rally Origins shows its roots in rally games of yesteryear while also bringing modernization to the table. I found that neither camera view made it easier to play for long periods, I still was compelled to come back regularly. I had an absolute blast while playing, and continue to do. There’s a ridiculous amount of content to be found here, that play sessions could be as little as a few minutes or whole hours at a time. I look forward to the developer bringing their traditional and mainline rally games to PC and consoles. Rush Rally Origins embraces its origins to be an accessible, dense, and just plain good rally racer.

Completexbox: 85 / 100 by Jordan Campbell

Rush Rally Origins actually stunned me with the overall package. I wasn’t sure if I was going to enjoy a rally game with a top-down perspective but I was genuinely hooked from the first second I played. With 48 different rally tracks to work through across time trials, competitions and races, it presents the opportunity for several runs to achieve the best scores and times possible.

Gamers Heroes: 75 / 100 by Casey Scheld

For those who live and breathe arcade racers, making a perfect run in Rush Rally Origins is an absolute thrill. For those who don’t mind a fair amount of repetition and a steep price tag, this is your next addiction.

The main pros of the game

  • Satisfying Driving Model: Players consistently praise the driving mechanics, noting that the controls are precise and provide a strong sense of control, making the game enjoyable.
  • Variety of Content: The game features a good selection of tracks and cars, with eight countries and multiple stages to explore, offering ample replayability.
  • Visuals and Performance: While the graphics are described as basic by some, many players appreciate the overall aesthetic and smooth performance, especially on lower-end hardware and the Steam Deck.
  • Addictive Progression System: Players find the unlock and upgrade system engaging, with small rewards that keep them coming back for more.
  • Fun Factor: The game is described as fun, simple, and nostalgic, appealing to both casual gamers and rally enthusiasts.

The main cons of the game

  • Unsatisfying Unlock System: Users express frustration with the progression system, where all unlocked cars are of the same class (D), making upgrades feel less rewarding and leading to unnecessary grinding.
  • Flat Off-Road Driving: The lack of penalties for driving off-road and the flat terrain are seen as drawbacks, reducing the challenge and realism of the rally experience.
  • Limited Camera Options: Some players wish for more customizable camera settings, as the current options can hinder cornering and overall gameplay experience.
  • Perceived Lack of Innovation: A few reviews suggest that the game does not introduce anything significantly new compared to its predecessor, Rush Rally 3, making it feel more like an extended DLC than a standalone title.

The features or elements that are missing from the game according to users

  • Free-Roam Mode: Users express a desire for a free-roam mode similar to what is offered in other rally games, which would enhance exploration and variety.
  • Unique Environmental Design: There are calls for more distinct environmental features and props to differentiate the countries and tracks, as some feel that the reuse of assets detracts from the experience.
  • Additional Visual Effects: Suggestions include adding effects like water splashes to enhance the visual experience during gameplay.
  • Tilt-Shift Camera Effect: Some players propose implementing a tilt-shift camera effect to give the game a more unique visual identity.

Summary

  • Overall, while Rush Rally Origins has received praise for its engaging gameplay and satisfying driving mechanics, it also faces criticism regarding its progression system and the need for additional features to enhance the overall experience.
