V-Rally actually makes players feel like they're driving on rally tracks that go up hills and down into valleys, through rain, mud patches and even snow. The game sports superb graphics that include land- or cityscapes at the horizon, roadside obstacles (including signs, buildings and more), and varying street conditions. You will be impressed by the 3D look of the multi-colored road and the details of the cars and the tracks. Pocket racing certainly has come a long way!
Are you a rookie, a pro or an ACE driver? Choose the right car for your driving style if you want to stand a chance!
V-Rally offers you a choice of 4 cars. The cars are characterized by four different attributes:
ACCELERATION: acceleration potential.
MAX SPEED: maximum speed.
GRIP: roadholding.
BRAKING: braking effectiveness. Watch out for narrow turns, objects on the road and competing cars... Collisions may cause you to bounce a bit and lose speed, but if you smash into an obstacle at high speed you are penalised with a time intensive car flipping animation! Braking for tight turns or obstacles is just as essential as using your quick reflexes to avoid smashing into another car or skidding through an oil patch. But first of all, you need SPEED!"

The actual game itself offers 3 modes:
Practice, Arcade and Championship.
Practice mode is for training. Here you can acquire the necessary skills before moving on to the challenges of the other modes.
Arcade mode has players compete with 10 other cars in 10 different stages (divided into three difficulties), such as Indonesia, Greece, Corsica, England, Sweden, Italy, the French Alps, New Zealand, Argentina and an African Safari trek. You have to pass three checkpoints before your time runs out. Win the race and you loose no credit.
But the ultimate challenge in V-Rally is in Championship mode. Here you compete in an entire race season of 20 races in 10 different countries, to become the WORLD CHAMPION..., or not as the case may be! One wrong move may spoil your season... Will you be fast enough on the broad roads of Greece? Will you drive with skill around the twisty mountain roads of the French Alps? Are you the ACE driver that can win the WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS? !

Palm version: "This is without doubt the best game ever to make it onto the Palm. If this is a sign of things to come perhaps Nintendo has something to worry about after all." - Mobile Computer User.
PocketPC version: "Incredible Graphics! V-Rally has been optimized to look and feel very cool. (...) Overall, this game really exploits the Pocket PC’s multimedia capabilities to offer an incredible action gaming experience." - Microsoft.com
Palm version: "...the most impressive features of this Palm version are its outstanding graphics and smooth animation. Don't be surprised to find your foot reaching for the brake pedal as you skid through oil slicks, slide on ice and somersault over other cars. Scrolling 3D graphics make you feel like you're really racing through the twisting roads of the French Alps..." - ZDNet
PocketPC version: "V-Rally is undoubtedly one of the greatest PocketPC games created to date, and is the finest racing game currently available for the platform (Overall Score: 5/5)" - 3d Accelerated.com
Palm version: "...The game is amazing. Do these companies know some sort of secret about the Palm that nobody else knows? Where does all the performance come from?..." - PDABuzz.com
