    The graphics in "CarX Rally" have received mixed reviews, with many players praising the overall visual quality and detailing, especially for a mobile game. However, some users have expressed disappointment with the realism and optimization, noting issues like lag and subpar textures compared to other titles in the genre. Overall, while the graphics are generally considered good, there is a consensus that further improvements and optimizations are needed to enhance the gaming experience.

    • “The graphics are amazing, and the handling is great!”
    • “This rally game really impresses with its top-notch graphics, delivering stunning visuals that truly immerse you in the racing experience.”
    • “Amazing graphics and one heck of a driving experience.”
    • “Carx rally is a great game I love it but my problem is the graphics; the graphics are not realistic. For example, there is no wiper on the windshield, and making money is really hard for purchasing another car. If not for that, I would have given the game 5 stars. Please improve it.”
    • “The graphics are very... early 2000; the original Carx Drift Racing had better graphics in my opinion.”
    • “The graphics are bland and the engine sounds like an RC car on steroids.”
  • gameplay153 mentions

    The gameplay of the game is generally praised for its realism, immersive mechanics, and impressive driving physics, particularly in drifting. While many players appreciate the constant updates and challenging nature of the gameplay, some have noted issues with controls, performance, and occasional bugs that detract from the overall experience. Overall, it is considered one of the better mobile racing games, with strong graphics and engaging mechanics, though there are calls for further optimization and improvements.

    • “That uncompromising gameplay really adds to the immersion.”
    • “Really awesome car sim game, honestly better than a lot of PC or console car games in terms of physics, customization, and gameplay.”
    • “Gameplay is addictive due to the strong mechanics of real rally race.”
    • “The game has beautiful graphics but the gameplay mechanics are really pathetic.”
    • “Gameplay is awful...”
    • “The game is good but it's too much bugs, please fix the bugs and improve the gameplay.”
  • monetization130 mentions

    The monetization strategy of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players appreciating the minimal and non-intrusive ads, while others criticize the reliance on expensive in-game purchases to progress. Some users express frustration over the temporary nature of ad removal after purchases and the perceived pay-to-win elements, suggesting that the game could benefit from a more balanced reward system. Overall, while the game is generally enjoyable and not overly saturated with ads, the monetization model may deter some players seeking a more straightforward experience.

    • “Also, very little or no ads is the real icing on top of the cake.”
    • “No ads at all 100% free to play and you can purchase to boost your progress but without paying a penny I encountered no ads after a week.”
    • “Proper utilization of rally callouts and while there are in-app purchases, they are all reasonably priced and not required at all to progress.”
    • “Wish they would make it to where you earn a little more rewards for each race. The cars and parts are expensive, and it seems the only way to really make progress is to make the in-game purchases, which are also expensive in themselves.”
    • “Could be a fun game if it wasn't a blatant cash grab. You need to spend real currency in order to restart races or championships. A few too many bad runs and you literally can't play the game unless you purchase more currency to restart.”
    • “This game is created entirely only to get money. There is no intention on making you have fun at all; it's simply bloated with ads.”
  • optimization95 mentions

    Overall, the game's optimization has received mixed reviews, with many players reporting significant performance issues, including lag and low frame rates even on high-end devices. While some users have noted that the game runs smoothly on certain models, the general consensus is that it requires substantial improvements to graphics and performance optimization, particularly for lower-end devices. Players are eager for updates that enhance stability and reduce overheating during gameplay.

    • “The game is awesome, perfectly optimized and love the physics.”
    • “Great game, I just have to say optimization for 3GB RAM phones because I use one and it's not that smooth; I just want high resolution, please.”
    • “Tuning section is also really detailed and it actually improves your performance if you know what you are doing.”
    • “The optimization is bad and needs to be improved.”
    • “Game is almost unplayable, very laggy and not optimized.”
    • “Performance is terrible, I was on the lowest setting with a bit lower resolution and I was getting the worst fps spikes ever from 54 fps to 6 fps and the game still says oh lets bump up your graphics.”
  • stability36 mentions

    The game's stability is a significant concern among users, with frequent freezing and glitches reported during gameplay, particularly when starting races or loading screens. Many players experience their devices becoming unresponsive, requiring restarts, and overall, the game is described as buggy, detracting from the enjoyment despite its appealing graphics and physics. While some users note that it runs well on lower settings, the persistent issues make it challenging to recommend for a smooth gaming experience.

    • “Looks great, runs great, even on ultra.”
    • “It simply freezes for about 3-5 seconds, and when it comes back, I'm no longer on the road, watching a blank screen, or I'm off track and then flash... back to the home screen.”
    • “The game freezes after every race 😡.”
    • “This was pretty unplayable; I was really trying to like it, but the constant lag and never-ending glitches make this the worst of all the CarX games.”
  • grinding14 mentions

    The reviews indicate that the game has become increasingly grindy, often requiring significant time investment for progression, especially in terms of earning money and upgrades. While some players find the grind manageable with the help of a battle pass or by purchasing car packs, others feel it detracts from the overall enjoyment, leading to frustration and potential abandonment of the game. Overall, the grinding aspect is a common point of contention, with mixed feelings about its impact on gameplay.

    • “It's a very fun game, but the grind for money, upgrades, and especially cars can be quite aggressive and time-consuming. If you don't spend any money, you'll find yourself spending hours grinding for cash.”
    • “The grinding aspect adds a layer of challenge that keeps me engaged. It feels rewarding to see my efforts pay off as I unlock new upgrades and cars.”
    • “While the grind can be intense, it also provides a sense of accomplishment when you finally achieve your goals. The journey makes the rewards feel that much sweeter.”
    • “Game requires a lot of grinding.”
    • “Really cool game but super grindy to the point of dropping it.”
    • “Its a very fun game but the grind for money and upgrades and especially cars gets very aggressive and very time consuming; if you don't spend any money, then you will spend hours and hours grinding for money.”
  • story10 mentions

    The story aspect of the game is perceived as repetitive and lacking depth, with players finding the missions, particularly license mission c-09, excessively challenging and frustrating. While the game starts strong with impressive graphics and rewarding missions, it ultimately becomes monotonous, leading to boredom as players are forced to repeat missions for upgrades. Overall, the narrative experience is seen as typical and uninspired, common in many games today.

    • “Even though it started very impressively, after a few levels this game becomes very boring, and you have to repeat the last mission over and over to be able to upgrade your car.”
    • “Usual story, I suppose, with all games now.”
    • “So it gets boring in the long run as it is not a full race track and also time attack type, but mission type.”
  • music10 mentions

    The music in the game has received largely negative feedback, with many users comparing it to outdated soundtracks reminiscent of early 2000s sports games, lacking excitement and immersion. Players noted the absence of music until races begin and criticized the overall audio experience, including the inability to hear the co-driver. Additionally, technical issues such as music playing despite being turned off further detracted from the gaming experience.

    • “Of course there can be some improvement on making the game more exciting by adding better soundtracks or cinematic replays.”
    • “Dude, the music reminded me of Pole Position; might as well play an Atari. Sorry, people, the game is slow and it really reminded me of Pole Position.”
    • “Lastly, once you plug the headphones, the in-game music starts playing, despite the bar in the settings being in the music off position.”
    • “The soundtrack in the menu is like from a sports game from 2006, and the cars just look like a toy. It doesn't feel like it's a rally game, more like an arcade, and the camera is just static with no sense of speed.”
    • “There is no music until the race starts, and there is no rally feel to this game. The environment feels dull, and I expected more from CarX technology after the CarX Drift series.”
    • “Mediocre game and I can't listen to music while playing, so that is a big downside for me.”
  • humor10 mentions

    The humor in the game is generally well-received, with players appreciating its funny graphics and amusing physics, particularly the bouncy dance of vehicles. However, some users note that the humor can be overshadowed by gameplay difficulties and optimization issues. Overall, while the game may not elicit constant laughter, its comedic elements contribute positively to the experience.
