    The gameplay is characterized by its simplicity and accessibility, making it beginner-friendly and suitable for teaching basic economic concepts. However, many players find it overly repetitive and lacking depth, with gameplay experiences remaining largely unchanged over time, leading to a sense of boredom and a lack of challenge. While some appreciate its addictive nature and short playtime, others criticize it for being too simplistic and not offering enough content or variety to sustain long-term engagement.

    • “Easily addictive gameplay with lots of research.”
    • “To put it nicely, it is short and sweet. It's really good but only took a few hours of gameplay to finish. Still a good game and massively underpriced.”
    • “The gameplay is very beginner-friendly and offers a macro view over the process involved in getting a product to the market.”
    • “But the actual gameplay is on par with an idle game for your phone.”
    • “It's really boring; it falls very far from a simulation - extremely repetitive gameplay!”
    • “The problem with Epic Car Factory is there are too few parameters and options for this to be much fun, and the core mechanic does a poor job of making you feel like you're designing a car.”
  • music9 mentions

    The music in the game receives mixed reviews, with some players appreciating its calm and mellow tone, while others find it grating and repetitive, often looping the same song every two minutes. Additionally, issues with sound controls and volume levels have been reported, contributing to an overall sense of unpolished execution.

    • “I like the music; it's calm and mellow.”
    • “For retro-hearted gamers, it serves more in regards to graphics and music style.”
    • “The music creates a nostalgic atmosphere that enhances the overall gaming experience.”
    • “Music is grating and loops poorly.”
    • “One song on repeat; while good, it gets annoying fast.”
    • “So far, the sound controls in the game don't really seem to work for me. I have to turn them down to what would be 1%, and still some music and sounds are way too loud.”
  • graphics9 mentions

    The graphics of the game are characterized by appealing pixel art, with well-drawn visuals and charming animations that resonate with retro gaming enthusiasts. While the aesthetics are praised, some players feel that the graphics do not significantly enhance the gameplay experience. Overall, the visuals are considered nice but may not provide a sense of accomplishment.

    • “The graphics are beautiful, and while all the elements make sense, I don't feel any accomplishment.”
    • “Everything is well drawn in a pixel art style, with nice little animations.”
    • “For retro-hearted gamers, it serves more in regards to graphics and music style.”
    • “The pixel graphics look outdated.”
    • “Over time, the workers moved into a 'bigger' factory, but the visuals changed very little, and the gameplay remained the same.”
    • “For retro-hearted gamers, the graphics and music style may appeal, but they lack modern polish.”
  • monetization3 mentions

    The monetization strategy primarily relies on advertising boosts for sales, with limited options for players to repeat tasks or engage in broader market activities like rival takeovers or stock trading. Additionally, the black market offers minimal utility beyond advertisements and role-playing elements.

    • “No options to repeat tasks such as advertisements.”
    • “The black market is largely useless aside from advertisements and RP.”

    • “It has the funny, funny moments.”
    • “It's genuinely funny.”
  • grinding2 mentions

    • “It's very tedious.”
    • “I'm a big fan of idle games and other 'boring' farming and grinding games.”
  • story1 mentions

    The story aspect of the game is positively received, with players expressing excitement about its availability on PC, reminiscent of similar mobile games like "Gamedev Story."

  • stability1 mentions

    Users have reported significant stability issues, describing the game as buggy and unpolished, with no noticeable improvements from its beta version to the official release. This has led some players to refund the game shortly after purchase due to these ongoing problems.

    • “This is why this review remains accurate even with 0.2 hours: because I immediately refunded when I saw that there is no difference between the buggy, messy, unpolished, and content-lacking beta and the release.”
    • “The game crashes frequently, making it nearly unplayable.”
    • “I encountered numerous bugs that completely broke my experience.”
