Controlling his(her) car in third-person ‘behind the car’ view, player should drive through the marked path in Sahara. When player loses his(her) way, he(she) may be in the sands alone and start to skid. In this situation he(she) may switch between 4×4 and 4×2 modes of the car. These modes have own opportunities and misses. The speed is limited to 87 in 4×4 mode and limited by car’s parameters in 4×2 mode. But in 4×4 mode path marks may stop the car, while in 4×2 mode the car may knock the path parks off. Switching the gear, player may drive back and forth to avoid blocking of car either by path mark or by debris in the sand. Direction of the way is shown by compass as well as length of traversed path and volume of residuary fuel are displayed by indicators.
Other drivers are present on the way during day and night, therefore they should be left behind to win in the rally. There are five stages with different visible horizons:
1) Tunis – In Salah (5726 Km);
2) Ouallene – Achegour (4353 Km);
3) Achegour – Niamey (4587 Km);
4) Ouagadougou – Bamako (4438 Km);
5) Bamako – Dakar (3622 Km).
