  • gameplay116 mentions

    The gameplay is generally praised for its smooth controls, engaging mechanics, and extensive customization options for bikes, making it enjoyable and addictive for players.

    • “The gameplay continues to surprise me continuously; there just isn't anything like it in the market.”
    • “The game is super addictive, with the best gameplay, easy controls, multiple maps, and a couple of bikes; the animation is just perfect.”
    • “Cons would be the lack of campaign mode, some game modes/tracks being better than others, and a lack of variety in assets/game mechanics.”
    • “The actual gameplay gets old and uninspiring.”
    • “Good idle gameplay, gets boring pretty quickly though because of how slow progression is paired with a lack of variety in gameplay.”
  • monetization112 mentions

    The monetization model of the game is highly praised for its non-intrusive approach, allowing players to choose when to watch ads for rewards rather than forcing them to view ads constantly. Users appreciate the absence of unsolicited advertisements, with many expressing willingness to watch ads voluntarily to support the developers. While there are microtransactions available, the overall sentiment is that the game respects player experience by minimizing interruptions and providing a fair balance between gameplay and optional ad viewing.

    • “Fun to play, respects the player's taste by providing tons of customization options, and what is even better that you can't find in almost any other modern mobile game: no ads unless you are willing to watch for a reward!”
    • “Pros: - gameplay is fun - no ads at all unless you want extra bonuses - graphics and motorcycle models are great | cons: - too grindy | the gameplay is really fun, challenging if you want to and calming if you want.”
    • “Nothing hidden behind pay walls and no ads unless you choose to watch them to get a bit of extra in-game cash.”
    • “But, progression is quite slow (I get it that it's made just for monetization purposes), gameplay loop gets repetitive and unrewarding over time (although works great for meditation) and it was annoyingly asking me to leave a review so here I am.”
    • “And the bikes after 4 are just priced unreasonably, proving the fact that the developers are trying to cash grab from the bikes and maps.”
    • “Yes, there are microtransactions, but the amount of grind you need is enormous if you want to go free-to-play.”
  • story26 mentions

    The game's story aspect is largely criticized for its lack of missions and narrative depth, with many players expressing a desire for added features such as story modes, side quests, and multiplayer options to enhance engagement. While the gameplay is enjoyable and customizable, the absence of a compelling storyline or varied missions makes it feel repetitive and less immersive. Overall, players hope for future updates that introduce more dynamic content and a richer narrative experience.

    • “I like this game but I would really love a game just like this which is an open world GTA-type game so we could explore, do missions, etc., and just free roam, you know.”
    • “It will be perfect if you add story mode or at least missions and more bikes.”
    • “Add some missions or races; this game is great, and please make the graphics more realistic. Add some driver customization and story.”
    • “There is no mission in this game or any storyline.”
    • “We can't switch into 1st person, and the bikes are very few. There are no expensive bikes or cars. After all, this game is nice, but it becomes very boring without missions and any storyline. Developers should add such basic things in the game and also allow the use of 1st person view, add more new bikes and cars, and try to add new maps.”
    • “But it lacks a story mode. I wish there would be a story mode. Please can you add a story mode or at least make a sequel to this game with the same graphics and gameplay but with a story next time.”
