The gameplay is criticized for being a monotonous and frustrating experience, characterized by poor graphics and sound, as well as a lack of meaningful mechanics and choices. Players report issues with the interface, which leads to frequent mistakes in vehicle placement and overall dissatisfaction, even for fans of similar rapid gameplay styles.
“As featured in hundreds of mobile apps, gameplay here is a woeful routine of plate-spinning... that is to say, you need to tap on your iPhone screen to satisfy various customers as they come in and take care of other little busywork jobs.”
“The graphics are poor, the sound horrible, the mechanics inexistent.”
“Even if you are a fan of rapid drag and drop gameplay, you'll probably still be disappointed here, as the interface causes you to grab the wrong vehicle, or not accept your placement of it as you drop.”

The graphics of the game are widely criticized for being poor, dated, and generic, lacking any resolution options or meaningful tweaks. Many reviewers noted that even classic games like Pac-Man and Space Invaders had more advanced visuals, leaving the game's aesthetic feeling underwhelming and uninspired. Overall, while some found the graphics serviceable, the consensus leans towards disappointment.
“The graphics look fairly dated and generic, but are serviceable enough, I suppose.”
“If this game would only come with catchy artwork.”
“There's no option to change the resolution and no useful graphics tweaks.”
“Pac-Man, Space Invaders, and Asteroids had more advanced animation and visuals than this game does.”
“The graphics are poor, the sound is horrible, and the mechanics are nonexistent.”

The story is criticized for being poorly executed, with bugged missions and awkward English translations from German, leading to an unengaging narrative. Additionally, some missions rely on random chance, which adds frustration rather than challenge.
“The story is told through comic panels in awkward English translated from German, but is ultimately uninteresting.”
“Story missions are bugged.”
“There are missions where you seem to rely on quasi-RNG to complete them before the time runs out, or you need to have the building up early enough for the chance to be high enough.”

Users have reported issues with the game's music functionality, particularly noting that alt-tabbing to access music causes the mouse cursor to disappear, leading to frustration and interruptions in gameplay.
“After 5 minutes of play, I alt-tabbed for music but my mouse disappeared. After 7-10 minutes, it was an insane experience trying to escape.”
“The music is repetitive and lacks variety, making it hard to stay engaged.”
“I found the soundtrack to be uninspired and forgettable, which detracted from the overall experience.”
