Takes place in a lush valley with a rally gameplay. Reaching a level of detail never achieved on a TrackMania game, the valley environment will blow you away at first glance. The challenging gameplay will offer you hours and hours of fun, trying to shave milliseconds off every tight corner. Precision and control are key on this playground. Drifting is a last resort and will make you lose time.
A graphical improvement over previous Trackmania titles, yet it lacks the building potential and variety of Trackmania: United Forever.
The vehicle handles well in some parts, yet is excessively light resulting in the car flying when it runs into a barrier, or hits a small stone.
The environment itself is fantastic looking and adds a nice mix of 'Rally' and on-road driving. There does need to be more building blocks, but it looks like that will not happen.
Overall, the game is enjoyable, but it does need some added depth to make it a solid racing/building simulator, as well as a heavier vehicle.
