  • The game has excellent graphics that provide an experience similar to popular PC racing titles like Forza Horizon and Assetto Corsa, making it one of the best mobile racing simulators available.
  • Physics and car handling are generally realistic, providing a challenging yet rewarding driving experience that appeals to racing enthusiasts.
  • The game offers a good variety of cars, customization options, and multiple large maps with different environments, including traffic and detailed vehicle sounds, which enhance immersion.
  • The car controls, especially steering and braking, are often described as difficult, unresponsive, or inconsistent, making the game frustrating to play at higher speeds or during turns.
  • Progression can be slow and grinding for in-game currency is tedious, with many cars being too expensive or requiring watching numerous ads to afford them; multiplayer requires tickets or ad views, which many players dislike.
  • Several technical issues persist such as frequent crashes, lag on some devices or maps (especially Highway), problems with account login/registration, lack of offline mode despite being advertised as offline, and limited AI or multiplayer content leading to a lack of engagement.
  • graphics
    605 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's graphics are widely praised as exceptionally realistic, visually stunning, and comparable to high-end PC or console titles like Forza Horizon and Assetto Corsa, even on mobile devices. Many users appreciate the beautiful car models, detailed environments, and smooth optimization, though some note occasional lag on lower-end devices. Despite the acclaim for visuals, a few suggest further enhancements such as improved lighting effects, more varied environments, and additional graphical settings to elevate the experience.

    • “The game feels amazing and the graphics are insane—easily one of the best mobile racing experiences right now.”
    • “The graphics are so excellent that I thought it was a PC game, but the gameplay mechanics and physics are somewhat poor.”
    • “Graphics, hands down, one of the best there is in any (mobile) driving sim game.”
    • “The graphics are really bad.”
    • “Even on low graphics the game was struggling to get constant 30 fps....this is the only downgrade i saw otherwise the game is good.”
    • “Game is too lag even at lowest graphic settings developers please optimise the game for low end device.”
  • gameplay
    75 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is generally praised for its smoothness, impressive graphics, and solid driving mechanics, making it an enjoyable mobile racing sim with potential. However, critiques highlight issues with physics realism, car handling, control responsiveness, limited gameplay modes (notably lack of AI racers and offline play), and a need for better optimization and additional features such as interior views, tuning options, and multiplayer improvements. Continued updates and refinements are needed to enhance realism, control, content variety, and overall player experience.

    • “Might be the best mobile racing sim on mobile, looks fantastic and keeps getting better; driving mechanics are on point for this simplicity (you actually have slip angle and such).”
    • “Im a mechanic, I build cars for real, I literally test your game simulating real tunes I have done in the past; I am very impressed with the car physics in this game, I am in love. The maps are a bit dim, more RP locations and online engagement with players will be perfect, but that's more a future request. Props to the developer I love your work, especially having vehicles that the car community values a lot, keep it up.”
    • “Excellent work so far; car sounds are realistic, graphics are nice, and gameplay is smooth even on high graphics with unlimited FPS.”
    • “Even without a tire temperature mechanic in-game, cars slide constantly as if the tires are ice cold.”
    • “This game is only good because of its graphics. Gameplay-wise, this game is terrible: the controls feel atrocious, the physics don't make sense. I was going 60 mph on a corner and it was understeering.”
    • “Bad gameplay experience, very poor handling, very limited gameplay. It would be nice to have AI racers to race against and better gameplay.”
  • optimization
    46 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Optimization in this car game is generally praised for delivering smooth performance and high-quality graphics even on budget or older devices, with many users highlighting its efficiency on mobile hardware. However, some players report occasional frame drops, crashes on specific maps, and issues on low-end phones, indicating room for improvement in stability and performance consistency. Overall, while the optimization is good and impressive for a mobile racing game, further enhancements and fixes would benefit gameplay stability and accessibility.

    • “Physics are realistic, graphics are amazing, tuning system is pretty good and optimization is surprisingly great.”
    • “I played it on my budget phone which has a Dimensity 7300 and it gave me smooth butter performance.”
    • “I mean, you can't really exit a corner without spinning out (unless you use a low power car)... but overall very good game, nice optimization. I can even play on max graphics on an old phone with decent frames.”
    • “Playing on high settings with motion blur caused bad performance, leading to a system UI crash on the Nord Ring map, forcing a restart and game uninstallation due to poor optimization and long loading times.”
    • “Performance slightly improved by turning off color grading/correction and changing upscaling to bilinear, but the takeaway is clear: don't claim a game is well optimized when it is not.”
    • “The game has more lag on 2 GB RAM and needs higher performance; this game is not suitable for old phones.”
  • monetization
    38 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users consistently criticize the game's heavy reliance on watching ads as the primary way to earn premium currency and access multiplayer features, describing the process as monotonous, frustrating, and intrusive. Many express a desire for alternative, less ad-dependent methods to obtain in-game money and items, noting that the excessive monetization hampers enjoyment despite the game's strong graphics and gameplay. Additionally, technical issues with ads and progress persistence further detract from the experience.

    • “Love the graphics and physics and has no ads when playing multiplayer”
    • “The disgustingly heavy amount of monetization is what drew me away from this game for a year and it's sad to see it's still present. I'd love for this to decrease and for more in-game content to spice it up.”
    • “Unfortunately the only way to buy cars is to watch ads or invest real money, and please don't tell me it isn't the case. To play multiplayer you need to watch ads. The best way to get cars quickly is to watch 30-50 ads in a row and claim free spins. Car customization is very limited and tuning options are nothing special.”
    • “Getting the high end cars is so difficult. How are we supposed to raise that many coins with limited spins when players are forced to watch so many unnecessary ads?”
  • story
    22 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players consistently highlight the lack of a compelling story or career mode as a major shortfall, expressing a strong desire for missions, offline races, and engaging side quests to enhance gameplay variety. They also suggest adding features like daily missions, open-world maps, and improved map details to prevent boredom and increase replayability. Overall, while the game is praised for graphics and controls, the absence of a structured narrative and meaningful missions limits its long-term appeal.

    • “Add story and career mode.”
    • “But need a better story line or races.”
    • “You forgot to focus on the most important thing, the offline races and the story mode.”
    • “The only issue I have with the game currently is the lack of a career/story mode, but even so it's not that big of an issue.”
    • “The world is boring with no content, no funny missions, nothing.”
  • stability
    21 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game suffers from frequent crashes, freezes, and numerous bugs that disrupt gameplay and progression, particularly in online mode. While some users praise its physics and sound quality, the overall stability is poor, requiring urgent fixes to improve reliability.

    • “There's no glitches”
    • “When I load into the game, it shows Apex Racing first as usual, then after that it shows a pink screen and freezes there.”
    • “Can't even play the online mode normally because it freezes after about a minute every single time I go for a drive.”
    • “After 15-20 minutes the game just freezes or crashes.”
  • music
    10 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users appreciate the game's music and sound effects but consistently note the lack of a music control or mute option within the game. Playing external music (e.g., via Spotify) often disables in-game sounds, which frustrates players who want to enjoy both simultaneously. Adding a sound menu for better audio control would significantly enhance the gaming experience.

    • “These are small issues that can be solved; everything else about the game: the music, the graphics, the cars is absolutely perfect.”
    • “Almost game good all function awesome on any device but giving music control would be better for game experience; please provide music control.”
    • “I can't play music specifically on Spotify while playing this game. I don't know why, but when I start playing music, the game sound effect is gone.”
    • “Good but definitely needs a sound menu option in settings; sometimes I want to hear the car and music, sometimes I don't.”
    • “Why is there no option to turn off music?”
  • grinding
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Grinding in the game is generally praised for being easy and not overly time-consuming, allowing players to acquire cars and upgrades without excessive effort. However, some users mention issues such as problematic ad interruptions during grinding and difficulties with driving physics like lack of grip affecting lap performance. Overall, the game balances progression well, making it accessible and enjoyable without feeling too grind-heavy.

    • “I would rate this game 5 stars but the grinding issue needs to be fixed, especially the ads that often stop working and can't be pressed.”
    • “I've been grinding for money, but not apex coins; the gameplay is smooth but the day-night cycle is missing.”
    • “You don't need to spend excessive time grinding for cars; I bought 3 cars in the first few hours, which is a positive aspect versus other games.”
  • humor
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users find the game's humor largely driven by its exaggerated and amusing physics glitches, which add a fun and lighthearted element. However, some feel the overall content lacks comedic missions or engaging humor beyond these moments.

    • “The one glitch I will point out is the collisions are a bit stuffed but they are funny as hell. Like playing with the Corvette and hitting the wall in a certain way and you just get absolutely sent into the stratosphere. It's so funny, but other than that it ain't that big of an issue. It kind of makes the game fun.”
    • “Funny game but please work on the graphics and make more upgrades for cars.”
    • “What, why are you laughing?”
  • replayability
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users feel that the game's replayability could be improved by providing more efficient and engaging ways to earn in-game currency beyond watching ads, and by optimizing performance for lower-end devices to enhance playability.

    • “I would like to point some things out that will make the game more playable.”
    • “Making a better way for earning the blue money will be more efficient and more playable than just watching ads to gamble it.”
    • “Can you make it more playable on lower-end devices?”
  • emotional
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players express frustration with the game's strict disqualification rules during racing, which detracts from their emotional enjoyment; they hope the developers will address this issue to improve the experience.
