Realistic and detailed car repair and building mechanics that provide an immersive experience.
Good physics and interactive gameplay that resemble popular PC games like My Summer Car.
Potential for a highly engaging game with room for expansion in graphics, map size, and features.

Limited content with only one main vehicle and small map leading to repetitive gameplay.
Frequent bugs and glitches such as vehicle stalling, parts disappearing, and crashes that hinder progress.
Game economy and pricing are unbalanced, making it difficult to afford parts and sustain gameplay.

Users generally praise the game's graphics for being good, detailed, and realistic, enhancing the driving and engine repair experience. However, many request further improvements, such as better lighting (especially brighter headlights), enhanced textures, more detailed interiors, and larger, more dynamic environments with NPCs, traffic, and weather effects. Despite the solid visual foundation, ongoing graphic upgrades and bug fixes are frequently suggested to increase immersion and overall gameplay realism.
- “The game's physics, graphics, detailed and functional interiors make it outstanding and I will recommend it to anyone who's a fan of driving simulators.”
- “Guys this is a great game, it's like being a real engineer and the game has nice graphics. Thank you for making such a great game.”
- “The physics are realistic and the graphics are well detailed. I hope next update devs will add more things.”
- “The game concept is very nice but there are so many glitches in the game; I can't cross the bridge using a scooter and if we go off the side of the road then it is difficult to take the vehicle, and there should be hints about which part of the vehicle should be fixed. Other than that, the graphics should be improved.”
- “It's a good game but the graphics are bad and it would be nice if you had added traffic and rules like if you pass the speed limit you get a ticket and add robots, a city, cops.”
- “Lacking the basic fundamentals of graphics and simulation physics engineering.”

The gameplay is praised for its realistic and detailed car mechanic simulation, offering immersive and educational experiences about engine repair and vehicle maintenance. However, players desire improvements such as multiplayer modes, more vehicle and upgrade options, expanded maps with NPCs or traffic, and better balancing of parts durability and in-game economy to enhance engagement and accessibility. Overall, the game is well-received but acknowledged as needing further features and polish for greater depth and replayability.
- “The parts installing and dismantling is quite a nice touch to the game and the shift and gas mechanics are somehow realistic.”
- “This game helped me understand the complexity of an engine, since the player will be learning some aspects of a mechanic’s job as the game progresses.”
- “A good game in terms of realistic car repair and installation and the mechanical aspects of the car such as fuel, brake oil, and engine oil.”
- “The game is very good but there is so much more that needs to be done like lowering the price of parts because the money earned is way too low to afford parts. Please add more cars to restore because that will make this game much better. Also add barn finds, make the map bigger with more shops and garages, new activities, improve suspension physics, add more detail to the mechanics of the car, and allow more customization.”
- “Played the game for many years now and recently noticed the ads constantly crash the game. The antifreeze and brake fluid don't last nearly long enough, nor do the parts. They need much more durability for the game to be playable. Fully accessing the job without your truck breaking down after a few jobs and then not being able to afford the fix usually halts the gameplay. The brake fluid bottle doesn't even fill up a quarter of the pump; there's barely anything in it.”
- “Game looks and feels great but I've spent an hour and a half trying to fix and start the damn car. I'm not a mechanic, so please add an option where the car is prebuilt.”
monetization

The game's monetization relies heavily on ads, with many players accepting rewarded ads as fair but frustrated by intrusive, crash-causing, or inappropriate advertisements that don't offer benefits. While some users wish for an option to pay to remove ads, others feel the in-game economy tied to ads and rewards could be better balanced to reduce difficulty and improve gameplay flow. Overall, players appreciate the ad-supported model but request fewer, less disruptive ads and more monetization options.
- “The one and only problem with this game is that it's based entirely on advertisements only.”
- “I would absolutely pay up to $5 to make the ads go away if I could, but unfortunately there is no avenue to do so (other than airplane mode, but I'd like to support this game).”
- “I understand that we as players watch ads for rewards but there are also ads that show at the top of the screen; they don't benefit us with anything.”

Users express frustration with the game's music system, citing issues such as song selection errors, long loading times, distorted sound while driving, and difficulty importing personal music files. Many suggest improvements like an in-game music player or radio system with easier song imports and better audio quality. While some appreciate the game's features, there is a clear demand for enhanced music functionality and smoother integration.
- “This game is actually one of the best Android games; its in-game functions are outstanding. However, I am disappointed with one thing: the developer added a radio feature where we can add songs by placing them into the game data via a file manager, but our Android system doesn't allow adding songs. I hope this problem can be solved soon so we can enjoy it.”
- “This game is cool for its size, but I think you should add more features like a junkyard shop, purchase more old pickup vehicles, a trolley to attach behind the pickup, carry toolbox and car jack in the vehicle, add music radio system in the vehicle dashboard, and add music in our phone gallery. Also, adding lights inside the engine and vehicle would enhance detailing, texture quality, and graphics. Fixing glitches and bugs would also improve the experience.”
- “It's a great game. Please create speed bumps, and since some of us like to stance our cars and buy new ones, please add those features. About the new update, I like it but find it hard to play music. Still, I enjoy it and wish you good luck.”
- “But can you please fix the MP3 player? When you drive, the music gets really distorted and sounds really bad.”
- “This game is actually one of the best Android games. Its in-game functions are outstanding, but I am disappointed with one thing: the game developer has added a radio in it where we can add songs by placing them into the game data folder via file manager. However, our Android device doesn't allow adding songs to it. I hope you understand this problem and solve it as soon as possible so we can enjoy it. Thank you.”
- “My screen keeps freezing when I choose a song or when a song finishes.”

Users find the current story lacking and suggest adding a more immersive story mode with character lore and purpose beyond basic tasks. They also request a richer game world with diverse missions, AI interactions, and environmental details to enhance engagement. Overall, there's strong interest in deeper narrative elements and expanded gameplay variety.
- “Last but not least, add story mode to make this game more immersive; we can't just build the car engine and take a delivery job without any purpose.”
- “Can you add more vehicles and maybe add a junkyard to find an old 1965 Buick LeSabre to fix up and keep? Also, can you create more lore and story for the character and his grandpa, telling us how he lived and who he was? Also, maybe the grandpa owned two cars and you have to get them back from the junkyard, with parts like new engines, suspension, doors, and seats.”
- “This is actually a great game, but you need to improve it with a good map, cars passing by, AI people you can communicate with when buying things, storyline, more people, and more places on the map like police station, airport, seaport, bank, river, motel. Include brightness at night, street lights, and car front lights because it's hard and dangerous to drive at night.”

- “This is actually a great game, but you need to improve it with a good map, car passing by, AI people you can communicate with when buying things from them, and a storyline. Being the only person in the city makes it feel boring, so add more places to the map and more jobs, like police station, airport, seaport, bank, river, motel.

The game currently experiences numerous bugs and glitches causing occasional crashes and issues like falling through the map, reflecting its beta status. While the core gameplay is enjoyable, stability improvements and bug fixes are needed for a smoother, more polished experience.
- “It still has some glitches with the engine assembly where you have to restart the game.”
- “There are many bugs and glitches that need to be fixed.”
- “There are glitches like when you are driving and get out of the car, I fall into a void and can't get out if I have no cash.”
optimization

Users generally find the game enjoyable but feel it lacks optimization in terms of performance upgrades, customization options, and aiming mechanics. They suggest adding more cars, performance parts, and expanded locations to enhance gameplay and overall experience. Improved visual cues for unattached parts and more diverse racing modes would also contribute to better optimization.
- “Although I do wish they would update it and add performance parts, better customization options, and new locations (maybe even barn finds), other than that, this game is excellent.”
- “Needs some optimization for aiming, and it would be nice if unfastened parts had a red shade or something so you know they aren't attached.”
- “This is a cool game, but I think you need to add more cars to the game and improve the performance: turbo, engine swap/engine upgrade, different tiers/sizes.”
