The gameplay has received mixed reviews, with many users criticizing its simplicity and reliance on luck, leading to a monotonous experience. The controls are described as overly delicate and frustrating, contributing to a lack of skill improvement and enjoyment. While some players appreciate the graphics and truck designs, the overall consensus points to a need for more diverse game modes and improved mechanics to enhance the gameplay experience.

- “It also has horrible stunts associated with the game mechanic; it's just stupid. Sometimes you don't know which obstacle or stunt you have next, and then you have to gamble your luck on whether to use momentum, speed, or go slow. That's when the game becomes really annoying and frustrating.”
