The gameplay of "Rally Mechanic Simulator: Prologue" offers an authentic experience for automotive enthusiasts, focusing on vehicle maintenance and repairs, though it suffers from significant optimization issues and minor bugs that can disrupt play. While the game provides a realistic mechanic simulation, it is criticized for its limited content and the pressure of time-limited challenges, which may not appeal to all players. Overall, it resembles "Car Mechanic Simulator" but with a rally twist, making it enjoyable for fans of the genre despite its shortcomings.
“The attention to detail in vehicle maintenance and repairs makes the gameplay feel realistic and rewarding for automotive enthusiasts.”
“Working on high-performance rally cars adds an element of excitement to the otherwise methodical tasks of a mechanic.”
“Makes it very fun and you got to actually focus and do mechanical repairs very quickly to be able to win the rally.”
“Needs to be optimized hard. I went to the test track and was losing 20-40 fps just being there without even moving. Some of the bolts in the car look loose, so maybe check the parts to ensure everything's proper. For the love of God, please allow players to do rallies themselves; otherwise, there's no real point in playing. It's just a car mechanic simulator, which does it better, and it's not even a racing game. Please fix it, or I won't even buy it for $5.”
“The 10 minutes between rally stages puts quite a pressure on you if you don't know much about mechanics.”
“But connecting poor mechanics, zero optimization, and terrible car driving control with time-limited challenges is frustrating.”

The optimization of the game is significantly lacking, with players experiencing substantial frame rate drops (20-40 FPS) even in static environments like the test track. Additionally, there are concerns about the visual fidelity of car components, which appear poorly rendered, and a desire for more engaging gameplay features, such as the ability to participate in rallies, rather than just focusing on mechanical tasks. Overall, players feel that without substantial improvements, the game may not be worth purchasing.
“Working on high-performance rally cars adds an element of excitement to the otherwise methodical tasks of a mechanic.”
“Needs to be optimized hard. From what I could tell, I went to the test track and was losing 20-40 FPS just being there. I didn't even need to move; the drops were significant. This is definitely part of the issue. Also, some of the bolts in the car currently look very loose, like they are only halfway on. Please check some of the parts and bolts to ensure everything is proper. For the love of God, please allow players to do rallies themselves, or there's no real point in playing. If it's just going to be a mechanic game, 'Car Mechanic Simulator' does it better, and it's not even a racing game. Please fix it, or I won't even buy it for $5.”
“The optimization is severely lacking, leading to frustrating gameplay experiences. The frame rate drops are unacceptable, especially during critical moments.”
“I encountered numerous bugs and performance issues that made the game nearly unplayable. It feels like it was rushed out without proper optimization.”
