    The stability of "Beach Buggy Racing 2" has received mixed feedback from users. Many players report frequent crashes, glitches, and connectivity issues, particularly with the requirement for a constant internet connection, which detracts from the overall experience. In contrast, the original "Beach Buggy Racing" is praised for its offline playability and smoother performance, leading to a general sentiment that the sequel has not met expectations in terms of stability.

    • “One of the best games ever! I love how it's online and the controls are super easy. No glitches, no bugs—a great game!”
    • “I love this game! It is so perfect, and there are no glitches. We can play it on low-end devices without any lag.”
    • “Beach buggy racing 2 keeps crashing again and again on my Mi 11 Lite. Even after I installed and uninstalled multiple times, I lost my whole game data every single time.”
    • “The controls are useless now, the graphics are a bit too much... why bring 2 when you could've just made extensive updates to beach buggy 1... the gameplay of 1 will always beat that of 2 hands down... no more championship, everything is just flat out worse than the former.”
    • “Terrible game, lags far too much, freezes too often.”
  • graphics1,164 mentions

    The graphics of Beach Buggy Racing 2 have received mixed reviews from players. Many users praise the game for its vibrant and improved visuals compared to the first installment, highlighting the cartoonish style and smooth animations. However, some players express disappointment, stating that the graphics are not as good as those in the original game, with criticisms about the cartoonish aesthetic and occasional performance issues on lower-end devices.

    • “Graphics are fresh and stunning.”
    • “The graphics and overall gameplay have improved tremendously.”
    • “Amazing graphics with responsive gameplay.”
    • “Bbr2 is a joke, the graphics have been downgraded, there's no career mode, just repetitive quick races, cars are expensive as hell and from level 4 upwards, it's almost impossible to win a race.”
    • “The graphics are absolutely terrible.”
    • “I still prefer bb1, the graphics and gameplay are better than bb2; the graphics are too cartoonish, fake multiplayer, no restart.”
  • monetization397 mentions

    The monetization aspect of the game has drawn significant criticism from users, primarily due to the overwhelming number of ads and the shift towards a pay-to-win model. Many players express frustration over the increased frequency of unskippable ads, particularly after races and during crate openings, which disrupts gameplay and progression. Additionally, the reliance on in-app purchases for unlocking content and the lengthy wait times for rewards have led to perceptions of the game as a cash grab, diminishing the overall enjoyment and fairness of the experience.

    • “IAP isn't required to play and there's no advertising in the game.”
    • “The in-app purchases are good and don't get in the way of gameplay.”
    • “This game is the coolest game ever; I have never seen a game like it. Great graphics, great music, and even the in-app purchases are cheap. Seriously, a very good game.”
    • “Honestly was a good game but ever since new cars have been added, it has become a pay-to-win in most events. The winner is someone who has used their own money to buy the best car for that event, while the rest of us don't even have a penny to spend on the game. Also, ads are just annoying.”
    • “You can't open the crates you earn from each race without waiting 2-24 hours, or watching 2-24 video advertisements, or paying hundreds of dollars on expensive gems over time.”
    • “This game has become ridiculous with ads. The ads totally ruin the fun and continuity.”
  • gameplay300 mentions

    The gameplay of the game has received mixed reviews, with many praising its smooth mechanics, fun power-ups, and engaging graphics. However, players have expressed frustration over issues such as unbalanced AI, repetitive tracks, and a perceived shift towards pay-to-win mechanics. Suggestions for improvement include adding multiplayer options, new game modes, and addressing gameplay inconsistencies to enhance the overall experience.

    • “Really fun and very competitive gameplay. I would like to suggest a new game mode like 2 player mode, mega mode (instead of 6 how about 10 racers with 3 laps), no power-up race. It would be really cool if you guys also add a new 'sky map' - it's like a race from the clouds with a cloud village or even a floating sky kingdom. By the way, keep up the good work! 😊”
    • “The gameplay is great as it was in the first one. I also like that the maps are more interactive.”
    • “The gameplay is addictive and interactive, although sometimes it needs strategy more than pure action to win any race.”
    • “Unfair gameplay; if you are near the finish line, suddenly something will hit you and you will die, of course, but you will end up last.”
    • “There's just so much that isn't under your control, and it makes for frustrating gameplay.”
    • “The gameplay sucks; the computer will decide if you're going to win or not, the bots are more dominant than the real players.”
  • music90 mentions

    The music in the game has received mixed reviews, with some players finding it catchy and enjoyable, while others describe it as generic and overly loud, detracting from the overall experience. Many users expressed a desire for more variety and the return of soundtracks from previous installments, indicating that the current music does not meet their expectations. Overall, while some appreciate the new tracks, a significant number of players feel that the music lacks the excitement and quality of earlier versions.

    • “The gameplay and the graphics are excellent but the music is exceptional!”
    • “Great game, great controls, but most of all, great music!”
    • “It's addictive gameplay and intoxicating music and graphics are sure to make this the only game you have on your phone.”
    • “The graphics are even better than the first and it plays well, however the awfully generic and boring music makes a return.”
    • “To make matters worse, they removed the music volume slider and replaced it with an on/off toggle.”
    • “Part 1 was way better than this........... I understand developers have added many things but..... the background music is so boring and sounds childish....... and doesn't excite you in the race.”
  • humor86 mentions

    The humor in the game is widely praised, with players finding the absurd physics, funny power-ups, and quirky character animations to be a major source of enjoyment. Many reviews highlight moments of hilarity during races, such as characters flying through the air or experiencing unexpected mishaps, which contribute to a lighthearted and entertaining gameplay experience. However, some players note that while the humor is initially engaging, it can become frustrating as the game progresses, particularly when faced with challenging opponents.

    • “I've already gotten to level 14 and it's come to the point that so many unrealistic things happen to make me lose that I'm constantly laughing.”

  • story66 mentions

    The reviews indicate a strong dissatisfaction with the lack of a story mode in the game, with many players expressing nostalgia for the narrative elements present in the first installment. Users feel that the current gameplay, which focuses on repetitive racing without a campaign or missions, detracts from the overall experience, making it feel shallow and unengaging. There is a consistent call for the reintroduction of a structured story mode, character missions, and offline play to enhance the game's depth and enjoyment.

    • “It's a great game, but it's kind of hard. Truthfully, I brought part one on my Xbox One and it's hard too, but make storylines and/or levels like easy, medium, and hard.”
    • “I think the first game set a high standard for this game because the other one had a story and you actually unlocked the characters and progressed. This one is more like a chest open, wait, then race, repeat. If they brought back the story, it would be amazing.”
    • “Very beautiful and good game. I'm a big fan of Beach Buggy Racing. I think a story mode should be added, and also online racing with friends.”
    • “This game is awesome but it's also meaningless compared to Beach Buggy Racing 1 because it has no storyline.”
    • “New one has not any interesting story like the earlier one... this is so boring.”
    • “No story line, no offline or online multiplayer and I can't even upgrade my car... all we do is race with bots match after match!”
  • optimization36 mentions

    Overall, the game's optimization is a mixed bag; while some players report smooth performance and impressive graphics, others experience significant lag, bugs, and control issues. Many users express frustration over the lack of control in upgrading car performance and the game's tendency to feel unbalanced, particularly with the introduction of numerous power-ups. Additionally, there are complaints about the game's compatibility with newer devices and aspect ratios, indicating a need for further optimization and updates.

    • “I don't know, but this is one of those unique games with good optimization for different devices, and the graphics are incredible, such as water reflection shadows. So many things that make this game the best of all racing games.”
    • “Racing feels great, controls are easy, and performance is smooth.”
    • “Good job for optimization.”
    • “The performance is so laggy, it's very hard to power slide and control.”
    • “Game needs a lot of optimization and bug fixes.”
    • “The game is not optimized for the new aspect ratio; I play on an S8 and the game is cropped. I don't think it's that hard to make it run full screen on new phones.”
  • grinding27 mentions

    The grinding aspect of the game has received overwhelmingly negative feedback, with players describing it as tedious, boring, and excessively reliant on microtransactions for progression. Many feel that the leveling system is frustratingly slow, often requiring extensive grinding or real money to unlock content, which detracts from the overall enjoyment. While some appreciate the game's visuals and potential, the grinding experience is seen as a major flaw that hampers gameplay and progression.

    • “Now the leveling is tedious, boring, and dull.”
    • “This game, though, has no end in sight, and only gets more bland, repeatable, and grindy the longer you go on.”
    • “Only negative is that grinding for gold is a very long and tedious process when there aren't any events going on.”
  • emotional6 mentions

    Players express a deep emotional connection to the game, highlighting moments of joy and sadness, particularly when finishing missions that evoke strong feelings. Despite some technical frustrations, the overall experience is described as wholesome and impactful, leaving a lasting impression on players.

    • “That was wholesome.”
  • replayability4 mentions

    Overall, players find the game to have good replayability, particularly due to competitive elements and the challenge of beating personal bests. However, some feel that the sequel lacks the same level of replay value as the original, suggesting improvements in graphics and mission structure could enhance the experience.

    • “The first one was awesome; I could try to beat my best times, and it had a lot of replay value.”
    • “You're competing with real people, and that makes the game really challenging and very replayable.”
    • “Gameplay-wise, it's not bad, but the first game has better replay value than this one.”
    • “The game is fun, but once you complete the missions, there's little incentive to replay them.”
    • “After finishing the main storyline, I found no reason to go back and play again; it lacks variety.”
    • “While the gameplay is enjoyable, the lack of new challenges or rewards makes replaying feel pointless.”
  • atmosphere1 mentions

    The game's atmosphere is enhanced by its unique design choices, including a diverse array of traps and projectiles that set it apart from typical kart racing games, creating a thrilling and engaging experience for players.

    • “There are many notable factors that generate a thrilling atmosphere in this game, but I particularly appreciate how the developers avoided creating a 'Mario Kart clone' by incorporating a variety of unique traps and projectiles.”
