The game's optimization has received criticism, particularly regarding performance on higher object count maps and issues with monitor refresh rates, necessitating users to set their monitors to 60Hz for a smoother experience.
“Fun to try to climb the leaderboards, but be warned that the optimization isn't great, especially with some higher object count maps.”
“Hardware optimization is lackluster, so make sure you set your monitor to 60Hz on your operating system, because the game can't handle other monitor refresh rates well.”

The gameplay is reminiscent of "Cluster Truck," featuring 10 challenging levels centered around trains with unique acceleration mechanics. Players appreciate the pixel-perfect precision required for gold medal challenges, though many express a desire for additional levels and mechanics to enhance the experience.
“It's like Clustertruck in a nutshell (10 levels), but with trains. It features its own acceleration mechanics and has hard-as-nails, pixel-perfect, hyper-speed gold medal challenges!”
“It would be cool to have more levels and additional mechanics that reinforce that challenging but satisfying feeling.”
