Safari Race

About

Safari Race is a retro racing game from Sega, released in 1984 for the SG-1000. As a single-player challenge, you navigate a circuit avoiding obstacles like animals and rival cars while managing a limited fuel supply. Each track requires quick reflexes and careful planning to avoid crashes and conserve resources. The game stands out for featuring real-world vehicles decades before it became common. You drive a Lancia Stratos HF while competing against Audi Quattros, a detail that aligns with the car's later fame in Sega's rally games. While not a technical showcase by modern standards, it's a curiosity for racing game history.
