The gameplay of "Offroad Mechanic Simulator" is a blend of off-road driving and vehicle maintenance, appealing to fans of both genres. While the mechanic aspect is often compared to "Car Mechanic Simulator," it is noted to be more simplistic and limited, focusing primarily on suspension and off-road upgrades rather than comprehensive repairs. Despite some criticisms regarding controls and depth, many players find the driving mechanics enjoyable and the overall experience engaging, especially for those who appreciate a more arcade-like approach to off-road simulation.
- “The gameplay keeps players engaged with its realistic driving physics and in-depth vehicle maintenance, making it a must-play for offroad and mechanic enthusiasts alike!”
- “Offroad mechanic simulator is a good blend of mechanic simulator and offroad driving.”
- “A solid hybrid of mechanic and off-road driving games, offroad mechanic simulator offers a good amount of content that’s more engaging than you might think.”
- “The jobs are all pretty much powerwash sim for cars with just a few actual mechanic sim parts in between.”
- “As a fan of car mechanic simulator, I was excited to try this as I love offroading, but this isn't anything like the car mechanic sims. In my opinion, it's kind of hot garbage. Removing parts is weird, and the button mapping right off the bat doesn't make sense when driving around. Not worth it in my opinion.”
- “The actual mechanic part of the simulator is extremely simplistic; I wish that there were more components to be repaired and upgraded.”

The game's story revolves around completing missions to acquire cars, primarily through offroad driving challenges, but it is criticized for its brevity, lasting only about 20 hours. Players have reported technical issues, such as lag during quest turn-ins and problems with mission progression, including missing objectives and long save times, which detract from the overall experience.
- “Only negative side really is that the game's main story only lasts about 20 hours.”
- “Game is fun but after about level 7, turning in quests lags hard.”
- “I'm doing a quest to find a car in the woods, 'forest exploration', and there's no icon on the map like it says there should be.”
- “The only negative side really is that the game's main story only lasts about 20 hours.”
- “I'm doing a quest to find a car in the woods, 'forest exploration', and there's no icon on the map like it says there should be. I found the area anyway by accident, and the car isn't there.”

The graphics in the game have received mixed reviews, with many users expressing disappointment over the outdated visuals that resemble earlier titles rather than a modern experience. Despite some enjoyable gameplay elements, players feel that the graphics lack detail and realism, particularly in vehicle design and environmental settings, leading to calls for significant improvements in future updates. Overall, while there is potential for enhancement, the current graphical quality does not meet the expectations set by similar games in the market.
- “It has enjoyable gameplay and good graphics.”
- “Only graphically I would slightly change the first person and the forest.”
- “Graphics can be better: vehicles can be more realistic.”
- “I was expecting something like Car Mechanic Simulator 2021, but the graphics and game experience felt like I went back to Car Mechanic Simulator 2015.”
- “Even though I have my graphics settings at max, it still feels like I'm playing at the lowest settings possible.”
- “I'm currently awaiting a refund because I don't see any way the devs could possibly fix the graphics to make them more detailed to match or exceed other games in this market.”

The game's stability is heavily criticized, with players reporting frequent freezes, particularly when completing jobs, and persistent bugs such as unmounted parts not appearing and completed vehicles remaining in the shop. Users express frustration over the lack of developer response to these issues, leading to a perception of the game as a "buggy mess."
- “Made it to level 4, and now every time I complete a job, it freezes the save bar on my screen.”
- “It is buggy; completed project vehicles remain in the shop, unmounted parts don't appear when you want to put them back, and bought parts also don't appear for installation. The solution is to save and exit to the start menu, but that doesn't fix the lingering completed vehicle. I guess you can scrap it and sell it for free?”
- “It's a buggy mess with no response from the devs to other players, even on Discord.”

The game's optimization has received mixed feedback, with players appreciating the engaging vehicle mechanics and the carryover of damage effects, but also reporting bugs, performance issues, and saving problems. Despite these drawbacks, many users feel satisfied with their purchase, especially given the low price during sales.
- “I really enjoy that there is actually something to do with your vehicles in this game, unlike CMS 2018. The damage you take while driving carries over into the garage, affecting both visual and performance aspects.”
- “There are some bugs and performance issues, as well as problems with saving. However, I bought it during the winter sale for a very cheap price, and I'm extremely happy with my purchase, much more so than I expected.”

Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be a mixed experience; while some tasks can feel tedious, particularly in complex repairs, the game effectively reduces unnecessary grind by streamlining the repair process, making it less burdensome than traditional simulations.
- “It can get tedious at times, especially when you have to dismantle the entire front and rear suspension just to remove the front and rear drive shafts. That is not what happens.”
- “This game does away with quite a bit of tediousness that was boring for the sake of being a sim and heavily speeds up the process of repairing.”
