What Paris-Dakar is
Paris-Dakar is a racing game developed by Made in Spain and released in 1988. It was published by Zigurat Software. It is available on Amiga, Amstrad CPC, DOS, MSX and ZX Spectrum.
The premise, in the publisher's words
Paris-Dakar is a rally simulator in which the player controls a wide variety of variables, including the state of the car (gasoline, water, damages, gear box...) and the race route (always accessible), among others. If needed, the player can refuel, buy water or whatever else is required from the powerboats in Europe or the tankers in Africa. Prices of these essential materials aren't always very reasonable, given the player's meagre starting wallet, motivating players to earn higher sponsorships through strong performance in the race.
