Not for Sunday drivers: Rally Master Pro™ stirs up the iPhone racing genre!

Rally Master Pro™, the best mobile game of 2008 according to Pocket Gamer Analysis, is now available for iPhone™ and iPod® touch in the App Store.


The eagerly awaited Rally Master Pro™ is now available in the App Store. The extremely realistic rally game, ported to the iPhone with great effort, will put racing fans on the edge of their seats. Not only the revved up graphics, including vertex colouring and dynamic lighting, but also the sophisticated driving physics, which individually calculates every wheel according to the weather and appropriate surface characteristics, along with the customisable controls, together create an almost perfect illusion of a real hardcore rally. With the enormous computing power of the iPhone, the boundaries between mobile and console games vanish, both in the graphics and the driving experience.




Each of the 27 courses in the game has its own personality. Tight curves, wet asphalt, and icy curves demand all of a player's driving skills. Help comes from the co-pilot, whose instructions should be followed if you don't want to risk totalling your vehicle. With the unique, interactive replay, the last stage can be studied with numerous vehicle and TV cameras and individual sequences can be fast forwarded and rewound to perfect the player's driving skill The new adrenaline mode also calls for error-free driving, because the rally car must reach the finish line as undamaged as possible. The 3D damage model provides information about the condition of the car at any time - the vehicle can be repaired for the next test between stages in a variety of mini-games. Course best times and rally records can also be uploaded on-line to compare with friends and players from around the world.




'Racing games on the iPhone are as popular as the competition is hard, but Rally Master Pro™ has nothing to fear,' says Michael Schade, CEO of FISHLABS. 'On the contrary, we have invested a good 5,000 hours into the port to the iPhone, in order to offer a truly high quality rally experience on this powerful platform. We are sure that Rally Master Pro™ will gain a lot of fans on the iPhone.'

The official game trailer for Rally Master Pro™ can be seen on YouTube. Rally Master Pro™ is available in the App Store for € 5.49.
