We’ve been quite lucky with racing games in 2020. First off there was the release of the awesome Hotshot Racing, and now we are treated to the excellent Art of Rally. The big question is, can it take pole position from my favourite top down racer Mantis Burn Racing?The first thing to strike me about […]
