The gameplay is criticized for being limited and repetitive, offering only three to four hours of content, which feels insufficient for a racing game. Players report dull grinding to progress and a lack of functional variation, alongside technical issues like crashes and poor vehicle responsiveness. However, some users express hope for future improvements, particularly in mechanics and options, given that the game is still in early access.
“Mechanics and ideology of the game are beautiful!”
“Not bad! I hope you make it like a car sim mechanic with more options, etc. I hope the devs don't abandon the game. I know it's early access; I'd like to see this go. We need more drag racing games; there are no decent ones out, bar Dragfactor, which is a mod for rFactor. Keep up the good work, devs!”
“That amounts to three-to-four hours of gameplay, which is on the low side even for a racing game.”

“Oh, and let's add what appear to be pay-to-progress mechanics just to turn the screws a bit harder.”
“Bare bones gameplay!”

The graphics of the game are widely criticized for being unimpressive and plagued by numerous issues, including glitches and visual errors like disappearing roads and clipping. Even at the highest settings, the visuals fail to meet modern standards, leading many to recommend looking for a more polished experience elsewhere. Overall, the game seems to cater to a niche audience that appreciates its mod support and customization options rather than its graphical fidelity.
“If you are looking for a polished game with AAA graphics, then look elsewhere because the game is for people who like cutting and pasting different parts into sleeper cars and letting them roar on the tarmac.”
“Even on the highest graphical preset from the barebones options menu, this game is visually unimpressive for the most part.”
“Not only does that game made for Windows 95 work better than this, (1320 crashed on me twice in an hour) it also had a functional save mechanic you could control, the vehicles actually responded to input, and to be honest, the graphics were not much worse back then.”
“Graphical issues in game: road disappearing and clipping.”

The game demonstrates excellent optimization, running smoothly at 1440p with a consistent 60 frames per second on a high-end system. Players report no performance or stability issues, indicating a well-optimized experience overall.
“On the performance and stability fronts, my Ryzen 9 3900X, 64GB RAM, 1070Ti, Windows 10 system encountered no problems playing the game at 1440p and a constant 60 frames per second.”
“While initially intriguing, none of the choices will impact the outcome: your character’s down to their last assets and must increase their reputation and car performance to get back at the rival gang.”
“There are tons of parts that can be put on the vehicle to increase value and performance.”

The game's story features an introductory choose-your-own-adventure style narrative that sets the stage for racing, but it has been criticized for being lackluster and reminiscent of older titles like Hot Rod American Street Drag. Overall, while it offers some narrative elements, many players find the storyline to be poorly executed and unoriginal.
“Before one engages in the dangerous activity that is racing, there is an introductory story resembling a choose-your-own-adventure.”
“If you liked Hot Rod American Street Drag (an old early 2000s game), you will like this pretty much exactly the same, just with different cars and a little bit of a storyline.”
“And the storyline.......wow.....pretty bad lol”
“If you liked Hot Rod American Street Drag (old early 2000's game), you will like this pretty much exactly the same, just different cars and a little bit of a storyline; other than that, pretty much the same.”

Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be tedious and repetitive, with minimal variation in gameplay. Many express frustration over the lack of rewards from grinding, particularly in country races, which leads to a sense of stagnation in progression.
“There’s minimal functional variation in gameplay, and most of the time spent reaching that point is just dull grinding in order to progress to the next racer.”
“The AI will spray 200 shots all day, and you'll eventually stop getting sufficient money grinding country races.”
