Overall, players have mixed feelings about the game's optimization. While some praise its smooth performance and graphics, others report issues such as disappearing performance settings, difficulties with truck handling, and a lack of upgrade options. Frequent requests for improvements and additional features indicate that while the game has potential, it requires further optimization to enhance the overall experience.
“Exceptional performance and graphics are the best quality.”
“Quality game, good performance - get behind this South Australian developer!”
“Runs smoothly.”
“I vote four stars because for some reason the performance settings in this game just disappeared. Please fix it so the game can be much more realistic again.”
“I bought Grim and the fully loaded performance package, and I'm wondering why the truck is so hard to drive. I love the air, the wheelies, and the recovery, but I break almost all the wheels in freestyle mode. The over-bounce (rebound) is driving me a little crazy. Is there a fix for this?”
“So good game; however, like someone else stated, I lost my purchases. Restoring purchases doesn't do anything, and I paid for the ads to be removed. I even had a few of the dollar trucks and some at max performance.”

Players express a strong desire for a more structured story mode in the game, suggesting a progression system where they can face regular drivers and mini-bosses to unlock vehicle parts and ultimately challenge a main boss. Many reviews highlight the potential for a narrative that reflects personal experiences or a journey from humble beginnings to success, emphasizing the need for missions and a more engaging storyline. Overall, while the gameplay is appreciated, the lack of a cohesive story mode is seen as a missed opportunity.
“Also some sort of story mode with a finale would be cool rather than a pile of gold trophies.”
“I love this game because you lose tires, your body parts, and it's a game of the monster truck of Bigfoot and that's my true story, the end.”
“This game is awesome; it would be better if you could make a story-like option.”
“Needs to be a 'story' mode where you start from the bottom up.”
“Is it possible you guys could add special missions to unlock new trucks and earn money, please?”
