Overall, it has the foundation for an engaging game, but improvements are needed to enhance competitiveness and depth.

If you hit something in the game, when you hit the back button, the car goes back very fast and you can't continue. I would be happy if the speed of going back slows down.”
- “The game mechanics haven't changed in the last 2 years at all: collision with other cars results in an uncontrollable car for a few seconds.”
