The graphics of the game have received widespread acclaim, with many users praising their high quality and realism, often comparing them to console-level graphics like those in Forza Horizon. Players appreciate the game's ability to run smoothly on low-end devices while maintaining impressive visual fidelity, although some have noted areas for improvement, such as better reflections, lighting effects, and overall color vibrancy. Despite minor criticisms regarding controls and the need for more car options, the consensus is that the graphics are a standout feature, making it one of the best mobile racing games available.
“The graphics are amazing, the cars are highly detailed.”

“This game has potential to become better. Here is my suggestion for the developers: the cars look realistic, but please improve the environment graphics because these graphics look like it's a 100-200 MB game.”

The monetization aspect of the game has received significant criticism due to the overwhelming number of ads, which appear after nearly every race and can disrupt gameplay.

Despite these concerns, some users acknowledge that ads are a common necessity for developers to fund their games.
