  • story17 mentions

    The game's story serves as a backdrop to its business simulation, offering a thin narrative that lacks depth and emotional engagement, though it introduces interesting elements like the protagonist's past and side missions. While some players appreciate the potential and quirky aspects of the storyline, many criticize it for being underdeveloped and riddled with inconsistencies and bugs. Overall, the narrative adds a layer of context but falls short of being compelling or well-executed.

    • “The story, though it has potential, is not like all car sale simulators; this one has indeed a storyline, which is a start and a very good one.”
    • “This game is quirky with its fun little side story of being an ex-convict wanting revenge on those who betrayed us.”
    • “Nice backstory getting to learn more about it with this over the demo.”
    • “The storyline serves mainly as a backdrop to the business simulation, providing context but not a strong emotional or engaging plot.”
    • “The developer has taken an already purchasable game idea, added a thin storyline, and is obviously hoping that nobody will notice the extremely sloppy way the game has been cobbled together.”
    • “The story part of it doesn't feel like there was a lot of effort in it, and a lot of things aren't explained or brought up again, like the protagonist being arrested at the beginning and saying something about being betrayed by friends and wanting revenge, but then when the protagonist gets out of prison they only talk about regrets and wanting to start over and do things better (nothing about revenge).”
  • gameplay11 mentions

    The gameplay offers a blend of management tasks and open-world exploration, providing an engaging experience despite some repetitive elements. However, players have reported significant bugs, including crashes and pathfinding issues, which detract from the overall enjoyment. While the game has potential and features enjoyable mechanics, improvements in stability and clarity are needed for a more satisfying experience.

    • “The game features a mix of management tasks and open-world exploration, which keeps the gameplay engaging, although it can become somewhat monotonous with repetitive tasks.”
    • “While it could benefit from a more compelling story and enhanced audio, its strengths in gameplay innovation and visual design make it a worthwhile experience for its target audience.”
    • “From what little I played, I could already tell that it offers many hours of gameplay, which is very good.”
    • “The gameplay is chill, but it's better if the bugs are fixed.”
    • “The game crashes when you save, the modification interface, for example, is not very active without ever disappearing. Buyers can get stuck, the pathfinding doesn't care about walls, the gameplay is repetitive, and it's impossible to lose money on a car.”
    • “The game mechanics are quite hard to understand; it feels and is buggy as hell.”
  • stability6 mentions

    The game's stability has received mixed reviews, with many users reporting significant bugs and glitches, particularly during initial gameplay. While it runs smoothly on recommended systems, some players experienced severe issues that hindered their experience, especially in the prologue phase. Overall, the game appears to require further optimization to address these stability concerns.

    • “Unbelievably buggy... the first race wouldn't work for a week.”
    • “The game mechanics are quite hard to understand; it feels and is buggy as hell.”
    • “On the highest graphics, the game doesn't look that much better than the lowest (and still has graphical glitches) and it uses a lot of system resources either way.”
  • optimization6 mentions

    Overall, the game's optimization is a mixed bag; while it performs well on recommended systems and is generally smooth for a simulation, there are significant issues such as long loading times, clipping problems, and unfinished car models that detract from the experience. Players note that while the game is well-optimized in some areas, it still requires considerable improvements to fully enhance performance and visual fidelity.

    • “The game runs smoothly on recommended systems without significant bugs or glitches.”
    • “It is well-optimized for a simulation game, which is crucial for maintaining player engagement in a detailed sim environment.”
    • “Performance and technology (9/10)”
    • “Still a lot of optimization needed.”
    • “I'll never understand why it takes so long to load just the first scenes and why there is running water below the map; surely details like that affect performance.”
    • “The clipping is horrible, the optimization is cut short, the car models are not finished (some have off-center wheels, lack of texture, modifications that do not adapt to the width of the vehicle, etc.).”
  • graphics5 mentions

    The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with some users noting that even on the highest settings, the visual improvements are minimal and accompanied by glitches. Textures and 3D models are described as generic and unremarkable, while character animations appear awkward. However, there are also mentions of stunning graphics in conjunction with a compelling story, indicating a divide in player experiences.

    • “Stunning graphics and excellent story.”
    • “On the highest graphics, the game doesn't look that much better than the lowest (and still has graphical glitches). It uses a lot of system resources either way. The textures and 3D models don't look too amazing, mostly just generic and not very interesting. The characters walk funny and just stare ahead all the time.”
    • “Graphics and design are mediocre at best, with a lack of detail and creativity in the environments.”
    • “The overall visual presentation feels outdated, and the character animations are stiff and unconvincing.”
  • humor3 mentions

    The humor in the game is highlighted by the amusing voicelines of the Morgan Freeman AI, which some players found entertaining despite the oddity of using AI for voice acting. However, the overall comedic effect is somewhat undermined by the game's graphical issues and the awkward animations of the characters, which detract from the experience.

    • “The voiceline of the Morgan Freeman AI made me laugh; it's always not a good idea to use AI as a voiceline as it feels very weird when you hear it.”
    • “Funny nice game, devs please make this UI better; it isn't good enough for a full game!”
  • character development1 mentions

    The game features a basic business setup but is criticized for its lack of depth in narrative and character development, leaving players wanting more in terms of character growth and storytelling.

    • “While the game starts with a simple business setup, it lacks a deep narrative or character development.”
    • “The characters feel one-dimensional and their growth throughout the game is minimal at best.”
    • “I was hoping for more depth in the character arcs, but they remain static and uninteresting.”
  • emotional1 mentions

    The emotional aspect of the game is largely underwhelming, as the storyline functions primarily as a backdrop to the business simulation rather than offering a compelling or engaging narrative.

  • music1 mentions

    The music in the game received mixed reviews, with a score of 10 out of 20, indicating that players found it lacking in quality and engagement. Many felt that the soundtrack did not enhance the gaming experience and was often forgettable. Overall, the music aspect appears to be a significant area for improvement.

    • “The music is repetitive and lacks variety, making it hard to stay engaged.”
    • “The soundtrack feels generic and doesn't enhance the gaming experience at all.”
    • “The sound effects are poorly mixed, often overshadowing the music and creating a jarring experience.”
