    • “This game is amazing; its graphics are excellent and the acceleration and braking are good. Love this game!”

  • gameplay69 mentions

    The gameplay of the game is generally well-received for its addictive mechanics and satisfying timing-based challenges, appealing particularly to MotoGP fans. However, many players express a desire for more control over their bikes, as the current system relies heavily on button timing rather than steering, which some find limiting and frustrating. Additionally, issues such as net lag, bugs, and high upgrade costs detract from the overall experience, suggesting that while the core gameplay is enjoyable, there is significant room for improvement in terms of control options and technical performance.

    • “For some reason, the mechanics of this game are so addictive; hitting it at the perfect timing is just so satisfying.”

    • “Great physics, great gameplay; just a super fun game to play... a little challenging but fun nonetheless!”
    • “The gameplay is broken; I press the buttons according to the timing, but it is still considered too early or too late.”
    • “The mechanics were clunky and buggy, like the frickin 2000s.”
    • “The thing that matters most is the gameplay, and unfortunately, it's ridiculously bad in this game.”
  • monetization57 mentions

    The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism, with many users expressing frustration over the excessive number of ads that disrupt gameplay and hinder progress. Players report that rewards often require watching multiple ads, and microtransactions are necessary for meaningful upgrades, leading to perceptions of the game as a "cash grab." While some users appreciate the option to watch ads for bonuses, the overwhelming presence of advertisements has negatively impacted the overall experience for many.

    • “I give it 5 stars because there are no ads in this game.”
    • “Nice game and graphics, no ads at all unless you want money to fix or buy a bike.”

    • “My experience is hours of grinding and watching advertisements only to find I can't upgrade my bike to something competitive without microtransactions.”
    • “Full of ads, literally will bore you to death.”

  • story10 mentions

    Players express a strong desire for a more engaging story mode in the game, highlighting the lack of narrative elements and character development.

  • music6 mentions

Additionally, there are complaints about the game's music being irritating or repetitive, detracting from the overall experience. Overall, players desire more control over the audio settings and a better selection of music.

  • grinding6 mentions

    Players express frustration with the grinding mechanics, noting that significant time investment yields minimal rewards, often requiring microtransactions to progress. Many feel that the game is overly reliant on ads and purchases for upgrades, leading to a pay-to-win environment that diminishes enjoyment despite initial positive impressions. Overall, the grinding experience is seen as tedious and unrewarding, with players struggling to earn necessary resources like diamonds.

    • “My experience is hours of grinding and watching advertisements only to find I can't upgrade my bike to something competitive without microtransactions.”
    • “No matter how many combos you get and no matter how many perfect timings you achieve, you will still not win unless you upgrade your bike, which means seeing a plethora of ads or grinding for hours for coins.”
    • “Game play-wise, I'd give it 4 stars, but I'm giving it a 1 star because it's completely pay-to-win at a certain point. Grinding races will eventually get you nowhere, which is disappointing because I actually thought the game wasn't that bad. You give the players no way of earning diamonds except for buying them. This game feels forever old now, and you haven't changed anything to make it possible to keep upgrading the bike without spending money.”
  • optimization4 mentions

    The optimization of the game is inconsistent; while it runs smoothly on capable devices, players with lower-performing phones may experience significant issues.

    • “It runs smoothly and you get the feel of being in MotoGP.”
    • “Many bikes like KTM, Aprilia, and Yamaha have good performance, so you play the game and enjoy it.”
    • “If your phone has poor performance, and you want to pass the time, still don't play this.”
    • “It's an awful feeling when you hit a braking zone perfectly and still get passed by another bike for no reason. For some reason, your rider will always choose the worst possible line to take in a corner when racing with others. You win or lose based on the algorithm's whims, not your performance.”
  • humor3 mentions

    The humor in the game is generally well-received, with players finding it entertaining and enjoyable, particularly in relation to the graphics and gameplay. However, some users express frustration with the constant online requirement and excessive advertising, which detracts from the overall experience.

    • “It requires constant online connectivity and is so full of advertising that it's not funny.”
    • “The jokes fall flat and feel forced, lacking any real wit or charm.”
