I already asked over at the GoL forums, but I think it's worth repeating: Does anyone know where one might find a legal download of this game? https://www.mobygames.com/game/3132/rally-championship-international-off-road-racing/

It seems GoG does not have it, and I would really like to play it again - for nostalgia reasons.

I don't know if you can find a legal download of it, but you could buy a used disc copy on ebay. That won't support the original devs in any way, but it's legal.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


I have truly fond memories of spending entire days playing rally games on the original PlayStation, and some later games on PC and Old School Rally really looks the part.

Good to see developers continue testing their games on Steam Deck before release instead of after - more of that needs to happen.

I almost thought I was watching a video of Colin McRae Rally for a moment there.

I love how indie developers refresh older classics like this that look the part, but come with all the niceties you expect from a modern PC release at the same time.

RETRO STYLE VISUALS - Carefully crafted retro style visuals, reminiscent of the late '90s rally games evoking a sense of nostalgia and charm, making it a must-play for everyone.

It enters Early Access on Steam later this year and they think it will take 6-10 months to complete.
