The gameplay is praised for its authentic 90's Polish representation and innovative mechanics, particularly the practical welding system that enhances customization options. However, many users express disappointment with the game's unfinished state, citing incomplete translations, poorly designed maps, and a lack of essential survival mechanics, which detracts from the overall experience. Overall, while the core gameplay shows promise, it currently feels more like an early alpha version in need of significant improvements.
- “Authentic 90's Poland representation and vibe create an outstanding timeless visual style, while a whole lot of the game's in-depth mechanics take care of your wrenching itch. I must point out that this is the first game I've ever played that has actual and very practical welding mechanics, which open up infinite possibilities in terms of customization.”
- “But gameplay mechanics come first, I bet!”
- “Survival mechanics are planned but not implemented right now.”
- “I don't think the game is ready for the public to play; only half the game is translated to English, the map is poorly laid out, and the gameplay seems more like an early alpha.”
- “The game's core mechanics and gameplay are mostly there but are too unfinished for a sim game (not asking for AAA graphics, but this is an eyesore). I would have liked to give this game a good review, but in its current state, I just can't.”
- “No survival mechanics, empty world, not much content.”

The graphics of the game are considered subpar, with many users finding them to be an eyesore and not up to the standards expected for a simulation game. While the core mechanics are present, the visual quality detracts significantly from the overall experience, leading to calls for improvements in the game's aesthetic elements.
- “The graphics of the trees and forests could be improved to enhance the overall experience of the game.”
- “The game's core mechanics and gameplay are mostly there but are too unfinished for a sim game. I'm not asking for AAA graphics, but this is an eyesore. I would have liked to give this game a good review, but in its current state, I just can't.”
- “Maybe lowering the price, adding purpose to the buildings, adding some NPCs, and improving the graphics of the trees and forests could turn this into an amazing game.”

Players appreciate the game's humor, particularly in how the radio commentary reacts to in-game events, such as traffic mishaps and amusing accidents. The combination of swearing and unexpected pile-ups adds a comedic layer to the gameplay experience.
- “I also found out the radio reacts to real-time events. The traffic in this game is hilarious, with all the swearing and sometimes causing pile-up crashes. I parked the coal truck across both lanes to see what happens. After three cars crashed into the truck, I drove away. A few minutes later, there was an accident report on the radio about three vehicles having a collision because of a hit-and-run driver.”
