“I would highly recommend buying this game because I bought it as a joke after PewDiePie mentioned it. I thought he was being sarcastic and making the game have a bad reputation, but when I actually played it, it reminded me of the PewDiePie Happy Wheels days due to its similar gameplay elements.”

The story aspect of the game has received mixed reviews, with some players appreciating the variety of locations and levels, while others find it lacking in depth and engagement. Many feel that the campaign serves more as a vehicle for unlocking content rather than delivering a compelling narrative, leading to disappointment among those seeking a traditional story experience.

“The story is good with 3 different locations with a lot of levels and sub-levels, one that, to my knowledge, is impossible but that was the point.”
“The campaign, meanwhile, doesn't have an actual story - more, it's a way for the developer to put their own stamp on the game in more than just its coding, and for you to unlock all the vehicles and pilots in a structured manner.”
“The story mode (if you can even call it that) is a series of levels made by the developers.”
“I was disappointed to see that the story was boring.”
“The campaign, meanwhile, doesn't have an actual story; more, it's a way for the developer to put their own stamp on the game in more than just its coding, and for you to unlock all the vehicles and pilots in a structured manner.”
